My B7510 rad was filled with dust when I bought it from the PO. They used it for mowing, and didn't do a very good job keeping the rad clean... Also, check the fan belt.

I've not bought from HGR, but have heard that they move a LOT of machinery, and you can get a decent deal there. I'm sure you can get screwed too. My understanding is they don't spend much time 'getting to know' their stock, so while they might not be trying to deceive a buyer, it could...

I design antennas professionally. I'm not 100% sure I understand the above. The fact that there are 3 parallel conductors, twisted together, doesn't really matter much. The simple but effective way I can see to use an abandoned 80' power line run would be to tie the wires together at one...

Yes! If you think the bucket is handy, wait until you can pop it off and put forks on in about 60 seconds.

...Retract the hydraulic cylinders?

Yeah - I thought someone might mention that. I've done it and lived to tell the story with no damage, but too much oil will be a problem.

Dang. Me too. Thinking out loud here... I don't know if 200 psi compression pressure on a freshly rebuilt engine that is being cranked slowly is abnormal or not. I suppose that if a squirt of oil into the cylinder improved the number considerably, you could say it wasn't a valve timing...

Seems like the wrong job for a tiller. Grader box with ripper teeth down?

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.

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...
