I like the way you think. Now, I should add that I'm the guy that can't stop thinking about a Red Green style front-mount mower, consisting of three 21" cheap push mowers somehow ganged together and hooked to my FEL...

Straight CO2 is fine for me and my MIG...

As noted in my post #12, measure the ID of your 3/4" fittings. 3/4" plumbing fittings will be .875". 3/4" refrigeration fittings will be .75".

Refrigeration tubing is 'true to size' i.e. 1/2" copper refrigeration tubing is 0.500" OD. 1/2" copper pipe for 'plumbing' is .625" OD.

Same here.

You might take a look at your tractor Operator's Manual...

What's the intended use - getting a stuck tractor unstuck once in a while, or an afternoon of pulling big logs out of the woods?

To me that sounds like fuel starvation. It starts to die under load, but removing the load allows it to keep running? Since you report this happened after you ran it out of fuel, I'd look for ways to bleed the fuel system. Not supposed to need it (like my old B7100 does), but still... A...

I'd some make the budget work for SSQA adapter (If needed) and a proper pallet fork set. At least for me, they have been amazingly useful. You scraped up the coin for the BX, what's another k-buck? Think long-term. Those clamp-on forks won't make you smile when you use them. Real forks...

Yeah - that seems about right to me too - maybe a little high, based on my recent purchase of a B7510 (a little bigger, power steering, 10 years newer, but 1000 hours, and not as 'shiny'). On FB Marketplace, you have to sift through a lot of chaff. Start at 10K or so, and just reduce the...

I don't know. Diesel isn't an engine lubricant, so at some point. it'll wreck your engine.

So, you're planning to run it with what might be a mix of Diesel and lube oil in the crankcase? Hmm, remind me not to buy a used tractor from you...

Lift pump is a good GUESS. Some people like to throw parts at a problem before getting to root cause, which is fine, I suppose...

Good place to start, but don't necessarily settle for what they stock. Take the time to study the site I showed. There are a lot of options, and it's worth ordering exactly what you need.

It ain't rocket science. Time to do a little learning. Check these guys. They're pretty fast, make decent hoses, and will probably have exactly what you need. They have for my FEL. https://www.discounthydraulichose.com/made-to-order-assemblies.html Here's what I bought - no idea if yours...

Time and hassle? What do you suggest that's faster or easier to figure out why your oil level is rising?

Yeah - I'm not inclined to keep boxes of oily rags around. A single layer of rag wrapped around a grease gun isn't a hazard...

I just keep mine wrapped in an old rag. It soaks up the leaks pretty well.

Like all insurance, on average - No. If you can't afford risk, then maybe.

It all depends on the condition. But if it's been decently well looked after, it's worth almost double what you paid, at least based on what I see around here.
