There aren’t many comments about 1925's, but I haven't heard of particular PTO problems. The difficulty of buying any tractor with something broken is that is hard to know how much repairs are going to cost so it's hard to know how much they're worth.
Repair costs for an undiagnosed PTO problem could range from little to big, but most likely would be sizable. Splitting the tractor could be required, which would take quite a bit of labour. Diagnosing a particular problem before making an offer would be good.

Good info. I guess that 1925's don't have a 2-stage clutch for a live PTO or an over-running clutch built into the TX, or they were available as options. I hope the external over-running clutches cures the problem and that you're otherwise happy with the tractors.
My 1710 has live pto, which was available as an option. The standard non-synchromesh 12 x 4 TX has a built-in over-running clutch.
