I have a full size tractor with the salt water in it. Yes it is very heavy. All of my garden tractors have used antifreeze from the junkyard. Not as heavy but free. Liquid balast makes a big difference. Before you start go pickup a couple of bottles of antifreeze water pump conditioner. Add to each tire according to directions. Garden tractors are a snap, one per wheel. You will need a little more. Only a couple of bucks a bottle. You will never need to worry about any rusting. Jack the tractor off the ground, valve at top of rim, remove the valve core, and hook a little plastic hose with funnel up to the valve. Will take some time but you can handle it. Only thing with anti freeze is leaks and pets and animals. Toxic. Just keep an eye on the tires now and then. With straight water/antifreeze you are adding a little over 8 pounds a gallon.

If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
