It s a new tractor only 2 years old
It s been outside and let sit so I thought it was first the battery
I had problems getting it to start
It seemed at first that there was a load on it preventing the battery from turning it over then finally it fired up
The next day I was back to the same thing but it now seems that there is no load on the battery when starting
It does not even turn over and the panel lights don t dim during a start attempt so I m ruling out a battery problem
It has been sitting and it is cold and snow covered but I do keep it plugged in
I ll call the dealer tomorrow I need it to blow my 1200 foot lane
Thanks John

Well I called the fuel dealer and he came over checked the fuel and said there's no water in it and it tested fine !
The NH dealer picked it up and I said you might as well put a block heater in it do a 50 hour service fix a hydraulic leak install hydraulic remotes and sell me a bush hog !
Wow I'm hoping he'll not charge me a float fee after all that!
Anyway the mechanic said it's full of water!
So now the question is how did it get full of water?
I believe that the water entered the drum from the top through the hand pump !
Perhaps it wasn't put on tight enough !
So can I expest any compensation from the fuel dealer ?
Thanks to everyone for your advice?

My TC29d just passed 50 hours and had no problems !
I had a 45 gal drum dropped off with farm diesel !
I had a half tank of fuel so I topped off with farm diesel
30 minutes later the engine choked belched smoke and quit!
Now it won't start, I checked the drum and it smells like diesel and my receipt says I bought diesel !
Any ideas ?

My old Ford 1500 finally gave it up !!,Too much ether I think
Anyway I saw an ad for a JD 4100 for only $299 a month and decided to go look at it. I drove it and liked the hydro tranny but the tractor was too small. I decide d to shop around and looked at the JD 4200 the NH TC25D and the Kubota L3010. I soon found that I could get a NH for a lot less than the other two. I was quoted 13950 for a TC25d with FEL 14950 for a TC33D with FEL and 12950 for a TC29D with FEL. I think they all had old stock discounts as well.
The only problem has been I've been waiting over two weeks for the loader to come in! Almost forgot I ordered the TC29d!
PS anybody want a 1500 FWD with FEL needs motor work !
