Finally got my new tractor ,after making my wife believe , that if I bought new it would be less problems but after having it for 14 hrs ,a couple of weeks, The engine died and showed no indications as to why{ the gauges |it was really hard to crank the engine over so that made me thank it was the oil we'll and the engine temp rose after seating awhile, after contacting the dealer he told me it was the electric fuel pump starving for the engine for fuel and that was the reason so after they changed the fuel pump and checked everything else that i told them about they insured me that it was not the oil pressure
We'll i brought the tractor back home went to work , and when i got back home went to bush hog my property up the road and did just that I was able to make one complete round about a half acre or so and the tractor died again it was really hard for the engine to crank { oil again } by the way left out the the part about setting ditch on fire , and now trying to keep fire away from tractor w/ sandles and shorts on not good NOTE don't wear sandles and shorts bush hogging we'll brought tractor home and died on the way home
called dealer back about same he said fuel must be contaminated I said i'd believe that if the engine would turn over he said bring it in and he'd check it again I told him that I don't have trailer big enough he said he would put me on list
we'll went to work 2 weeks and came home decided to try it it one more time same thing engine died we'll they sent a mechanic out to change a fuel sensor terminal or pickup tractor and the engine fired right up like it always does ,when its cold and warmed up and started knocking {OILPROBLEM} and now that they came and picked up the tractor They said something has gotten into the radiator and stopped up the water ports keeping water from circ the engine , well anybody that knows engines knows that nothing that big is going to go thru the radiator so I said that some had to be left in the motor during assembly !
then he said that the hose had come off from a stick and thats why the engine didn't have any water in it well thats when I told him that His mechanic had checked all fluids prior to starting the engine and they were full ,well they want me to pay 250$$$$ and they'll put a new motor whats yalls thoughts
