JD I get chastised on here quite often for warning these new comers the pitfalls of OLD tractor ownership, so much I have about quit making my comments. JOE BLOW buys a 15 acre mini ranch and first thing he has to have a tractor. Goes out and finds a paint job overhauled Massey 135 for lets say bargain of 3 grand. Gets it home water pump leak , no big deal $ 85 repair. Next month needs brakes says he spend 2 hundred, then radiator or cultch. Year latter is standing at the dealer ship wanting a new Kubota. Wants to trade his 1500 dollar MF. What do you mean 1500 it has to be worth 55 hundred that is what I have in it. Hear the above pretty often. Hard to tell them what a mistake they have made. I know some folks get buy with old equipment and new is not for all but as you stated one sure needs to evaluate how much real WORK they want to do before making that purchase. Problem is now there is no place to sell those old tractors.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
