Low hours on it...so you took it home for under $20? That is a great perk your job offers:greetings-clappingyellow:

Some people have to much money. Even if it doesn't run, there's plenty there for the price. :handgestures-thumbup:

It amazes me the the level of stupidity of some people that throw away decent vehicles and tractors then you have the the complete opposite that would want $3k for some RJ that most would used for a yard ornament :confusion-confused:...

What is it about y'all up there? Just look out the window and a 520 Hydro is winking at you, complete with wheel covers. I'm surprised it didn't fire up right there :-)

 

I have to speak up for the poor homeowner of today. Where do they go to have these machines repaired? The process today is to park the 2 year old MTD variant on the side of the house and it's off to Home Depot for another. Poor slobs - your gain!

What a shame. Someone spent all that money on an awesome tractor back then, just to scrap it cause something wouldnt work right. I bet its something small / stupid like a bad switch or something.

I have no clue. Checked the fluids, repaired a non-attached positive battery cable, threw a battery in it, squirted some gas in the carb, fiddled with the safety switches. Kicked right off!
