The guy I bought it from said something about a part under the left rear fender that no one sells? Any thoughts?
Just bought it Thursday used it today for the first time, would be nice to monitor the fuel….
Thanks in advance

The fuel level sensor sets in the top of the fuel tank under the left fender.

Does it read empty or full all the time?
Did you check the fuses?

Is it reading empty of gas because there is diesel in your tank instead?

If you ground the sensor wire at the sensor an the gauge reads full, you've got a bad sensor.

It is on empty and no I dont even know where they are.
The gentleman I bought the tractor from is a mechanic so I would imagine he did but I can look I just don’t know where they are it didn’t come with a user manual lol.
