The battery is only a few months old (napa). The tractor had engine problems and had to be rebuilt - you can read about it in the next paragraph. The tractor starts very easy and everything works.
The loader is very strong. It also comes with service records and a set of New Holland factory manuals in a 3 ring binder - the good manuals. They gave me the service records & you can see that they changed the head gasket and put 3 new injectors on it when they installed the head. I trailered it home and pulled the engine.I sent it to a local machine shop and they found that electrolysis ate a pin hole right through the #2 cylinder wall. The machine shop told me this was fairly common.
Instead of having 1 sleeve. I chose to sleeve all 3 cylinders. They also polished the crankshaft. Since the head had just been done (according to the service records), the machine shop did a. Test and found that the head was good & did nothing more. I put it back together with new piston rings, gaskets, new standard main and connecting rod bearings. I thought this was going to be the perfect machine for me & would allow me to sell my wheel loader and my other farm tractor, but it's not big enough for the big jobs and not maneuverable enough to brush hog. It's a really nice tractor - it just doesn't suit my needs.
