Just recently purchased a JD 2350 with a sound guard cab.
As with any tractor of this age, it has had a few hands in it over the years and I am trying to figure a few things out.
So, from what I have found, the clutch is from earlier this year, someone bought it at auction (I actually found the listing), put a clutch in it and did repairs to the AC system (all lines and compressor appear to be new). I don't believe the AC is either charged or I'm not getting voltage to the compressor. I'll figure that out soon enough.
The hydraulics seem to be fine, no chatter from anything (I'm assuming any internal leaks were repaired during splitting for a clutch). PTO works well.
Tractor starts and runs great. It has had the tach replaced for what looks like a 55 series equivalent that shows around 5,200 hrs., so I'll just assume I don't know hours at this point.
Here is where I have a couple of questions, I'm not sure if the key switch is as it was from JD or not? I have a key switch that has about 3 detent positions that appears it controls the lights and the fan for the AC/Heater? I have a separate knob over by the knob you pull to kill fuel that is turned to engage the starter and start the engine. I can't find that referenced anywhere in the owner's manual online, at least not in the form I have on my tractor.
I'm going to chase a few electrical gremlins, which I know this vintage JD utility tractor is known for, but just wondering if this is how it came from the factory?
I do have a printed copy of the owner's manual and the tech manual ordered. Just curious what everyone can remember on these.

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
