We went in and talked with the mechanic this morning. Fired it up and tested the air cutout to shut it down, comforting to know it works. It barely smokes given what I'm used to with diesels, but they are going to check out the number one injector and cylinder anyway which Scott listed as one of the problems with the tractor. He's an expert diesel mechanic so I'm sure if he says it's bad, it's bad. Since they've got to pull the engine to get at the 2 speed transmission, it's the time to find out what's wrong there if anything.
I also looked at the mount areas for the ROPS. It's bothersome that the tank fenders take up all the room where the ROPS baseplates would connect. I'm thinking that they are mutually exclusive or a custom ROPS is required. If we did a custom ROPS, it could then be a cage like Geo mentioned. I had a full cage on my AC 816B, and that was very useful in the woods even if you don't flip it.
