Hello oldOliver welcome to YT! A little more detail on the condition of the machine would be good. Was it stored indoors is the engine able to turn? Just turn the fan blade to see if it will turn, you may have to push against the belt to make additional tension with your opposite hand to get it to turn. Be a good idea to loosen the engine oil drain plug just until it starts dripping. The purpose is to check for water, if it just drips oil tighten it back up. If water let it drip until it is just oil and retighten. Be a good idea to test any plugs you see under it for transmission lube etc. this way. It would also be a good idea to pull the spark plugs and put a couple tablespoon of automatic transmission fluid in each one this lubes dry cylinders that have been setting a while. Of course check the coolant level, however just running it a COUPLE minutes with low coolant will harm nothing. There should be a drain on the bottom of the carburetor. Get a glass jar and drain it into it. This will give you an idea of what the inside of the carb looks like. It should flow steady and not slow to a dribble. Again the ..dribble.. problem will not keep it from starting but it will not allow it to run properly and produce the proper power levels. So it would be something you could repair after it has been started. What is your experience with mechanics and old tractors, do you have any? I will link the manufacturers online parts catalog for it. This will allow you to see what is inside. If you intend to keep the machine I would highly recommend getting an Operators manual and an I&T repair manual. See 2nd link. To get an ID on your loader a picture would be best for that. Here is a short explanation of the picture posting directions for this forum. Pictures post through the ..Browse or Choose files.. button just below where it says ..Upload Photos/Videos.. down lower in the ..New post and reply windows. I am adding a screen shot of what that looks like on my iPhone. Clicking that will give you a choice to select the file or folder the pictures are stored in on your PC or phone. Then select the photo from the file and ..Add.. it. They cannot be pasted into the text area as a file. I would suggest posting one picture in a reply, then 2 in the next if you are adding more just to test the size limitations.
Upload one or more videos to your post. Photo and video filesizes should be less than 5MB. Formats allowed are gif, jpg, png, ogg, mp4, mov, and avi. Be sure to use filenames without spaces or special characters, and filetypes of 3 digits lower case.
