I don't use my MF 231 very often. I use my MF 231 and my 6 ft rotary mower, because a lot of of poly watering pipe is still on the ground, from an old lemon orchard. My flail mower will pick that up in a second and wrap around the drum. I had to park some distance away. I get my tractor off the trailer and head to the field. Got one pass started. The tractor started slowing down. Then stopped. Being a diesel I knew it had to be a fuel problem. I started checking the fuel supply. I forgot to open the fuel valve. So I hiked back to my truck, to find starter fluid, I usually carry, not there. I loaded up my ramps, and chains. Then headed back to the shop. No starter fluid. After more looking it was in the back seat of my truck, all the time. Got back to the tractor. Took a few wrenches to bleed the fuel filter. I was one wrench size off. Since I couldn't bleed the filter I gave it a shot of starting fluid. It started them quit. A couple more times it kept running. I don't like to use starting fluid, but it worked. got done in time to fight rush hour traffic going home. Stan

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
