Hi I'm an immigrant to Manitoba been here over 17 years. I'd leave anything bigger than a Deutz dx 90 type tractor where it was. Most of them have been used hard on cultivation round here. There is a weak coupling in the transmission that strips the splines it's a major expensive job to fix it.
I worked in a wreckers for a while and pulled one apart for that coupling. we found out the used one had stripped and locked up when it turned and was junk to. a local machine shop figured out a fix and used to re build them but that's not cheap either, if they would still do it.
The syncro's can wear to, and they are a real bag of fun to shim and get right to stop them jumping out of gear. A Deutz mechanic looked at one for the yard we were going to fix in the shop, he said part it fixing it right was gonna be a gamble and cost more than it was worth as a tractor. The DX 90's and smaller don't have enough power to hurt anything much so they seemed to fair better. The Deutz has a poor reputation because of the bigger ones even going back to the 13006's here to for transmission shaft oil seal problems.
Anything European here in Canada you will find the parts prices are more crazy than John Deere, We run a Valtra through Agco, and I fix a few Masseys and a Landini for another couple guys, sticker shock on those parts is crazy. Buy something north american where there are loads of them around and new, jobber or used parts are better value/ easy to find here. The Duetz is cheap horse power for a reason, it will bankrupt you fixing it when you need to. most guys run them till they puke then go buy another one cheap or something else better than an 1135 or 1155 Massey for a reason we won't go into in this discussion L.O.L.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. 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
