You have already found the only fault I can find with my 990. You are indeed on to something. With the fuel outlet on the far right side of the tank, you essentially run out of fuel if the tractor is tilted so that the left side is significantly lower than the right. I only have a few hills, so I just learned to top off the tank when operating in this condition. Adding another line to the other side should solve your problem nicely. Otherwise, it is a very solid machine and I have done much more with it than I originally planned. Good luck!

Sounds like you are getting good advice. One question...what do you plan to do with the remainder of your property that you won't be mowing initially? You might want to consider something like the 4100 series, which should be within the price range you specified. It would be a lot more tractor and could handle larger implements in the future (loader, rear blade, etc). You could also consider a used machine in the 655 - 755 - 855 class.

Good general advice needed
