All of AGCO brands of tractors mentioned are built Italy.

The AGCO GT-series is built by Same-Deutz Fahr, and has a Same engine.

The Challenger MT300B series and MF 3600 series are built by Agritalia. (Agritalia builds tractors for John Deere, Claas/Renault, Case IH, Valtra as well as their own Carraro brand). The MT300B does not have a Cat engine, either. They don't advertise a brand name, and I couldn't find one last week when I was looking at one. The 3600-series has SisuDiesel engines.

FYI, Caterpillar does not build ANY of the Challenger products for AGCO as AGCO bought the designs and manufacturing processes. Cat does supply the engines, licenses the Challenger name and Cat logo, and supplies some parts.

Farmtrac is a stable company with a strong backing... Escorts, the Indian-firm that owns it, is very stable and is a large tractor manufacturer. The 300DTC is manufactured by LS, (formerly LG... LG split itself into two conglomerates last year, LG and LS). LS also builds for Tafe and Montana for sale in North America.

I just saw that Farmtrac is now importing from their Poland subsidiary. The 8075 model, both 2WD and 4WD, is now available in North America (Feb 2007).

White smoke is a good sign it's getting fuel.

(From my experience before I found my glow plug relay was bad, I would crank it with with a squirt of starting fluid.)

Sounds to me it has glow plugs not working. I'm no expert on 'botas, but there might be a procedure to start it like holding the switch for a time, or waiting to start until the indicator light goes out. Might be a bad relay, loose wire, etc.

Have you tried starting fluid? It should start right up with that. DON'T use starting fluid if you think the glow plugs are working--could start a fire... or worse.

I have case IH 5120. Tractor can move forward and backward. The only problem is that slow even no matter what gear is being changed. The oil and hydraulic oil is full. I was thinking something either it is a clutch prolem or electronic problem. <br>

Can any one in give me some suggestion what may be the problem ?

No bugs today.

Was my shirt off and my manboobs showing? Wasn't me then.

Mardi Gras, FYI, is "celebrated" like Christmas around he-ah---from Florida/Alabama border to New Orleans.

People even say "Happy Mardi Gras" to you, which is code for "have 'notha bee-ah will ya wit dem beads?"

Being a "boring yankee" I find it yet another reason to get drunk and be loud (them, not me)--legally.

Last week they had a parade of floats or "Krewes" coming down a two-lane that was one-and-half-lanes wide and two decks high---I'm already riding with two wheels in the ditchbank and the a--hole float driver veers right for me because he was too high for the tree limbs. Arggggh! Danged rednecks I-tell-you!

What a PITA parts are. Weaver has most. Can not locate new sleeve seal kits. Gasket set almost $300 thru Ford and less then half that other places, but 2-3 weeks out.

Freakin "almost" old tractor anyhow. New parts hard to find because tractor is old and old restored parts not avaiable cause tractor is still to new.

Should have it all by Sat am. Here's another 1/2 day putting back together.

The way I look at it is ethanol is a politicians dream-vote getter. Most voters don't look deep enough. With the incentives, it's gonna make a whole lot of people rich, very rich. But it ain't gonna do a thing for the everyday person but cost them money.

I have a Clayton wood burning furnace in mine and it runs all winter long and my burns stays a comfy 70 to 75 deg. If your going to heat your burn/garage spend the money on the insulation it will pay off in the long run. Last week it was in the single digits and my barn was comfy warm.

I was going to shoot some screws thru 2bys into ribs to hold rock on. the loader/bh to slide rock onto hood maybe some stakes to hold hood in place. Didn't say it would be easy but when I was in 8th grade friend wanted a ROCK for his garden. Found 1 about 1.5' across and 2' long. first day 3 of us got it out of crick onto 3' bank. Next day got it moved about 100' to railroad right of way. Friend called rail agent about cost to move rock still remember his comment "a single rock?" He must of thought a joke but 13 yr old kids are resourcefull. Got wagon loaded rock broke wagon fixed wagon and drug it 1/4mile along tracks. friend uncle said if we got it to bottom of hill he would bring brick/masonary company truck and haul. He lied, so with 2 pulling and 1 keeping 4X4 behind wheel as brake got it up 150' 25 deg slope and 1/2 mile to house where it still was 5-10 yrs ago. Remember this was 1968ish.Took most of a week so figure with hyd tractor a mere 2X2X3 rock is piece of cake! Time will tell. never heard of a stone boat B4.

HArvey hit on the key to it, drive them for a while and then retighten them. Even the tightest chains will move a little and settle into the gaps between tread bars, etc., and will become slack with use.

Best of luck.

Something like that happened in the Detroit area a few years ago. Young parents were up in arms. The media got a hold of it and a local doctor gave his opinion. All came to a screaching halt when he pointed out it's a naturally occuring condition. And there's not a thing you can do about it.

IMHO, toxic black mold is more of a threat as it's mostly man-made materials (carboard, drywall) in man-made places (homes, wet dirty basements) that need to be looked at. In Toldeo and Detroit in the inner city, several babies died due to inhaling the mold. Too that mold and others gave way to what the locals called a "Katrina Cough" (mold was everywhere, and still is in homes that have not been gutted yet). It was (is) a irritating cough deep in the lungs that just doesn't go away. I have it myself. Bad infections of the stuff makes one dilerous(sp), and lose memory. Now where was I...

I'm assuming you mean the lower arm pivot?

If it's like my old Fordson, it's a fairly easy thing--remove one side of the axle "bugle" or "horn"---wheel and all (you can remove the wheel if you like). If I recall correctly, if you remove all the nuts/bolts securing the horn to the axle pig it should slide right out with some coaxing. I'd use a transmission jack on casters or an engine puller on casters to support the axle regardless if the wheel is on or not. You might have to buy a new pivot bolt as it probably beat up, not to mention the hole in the casting being wallowed out. If it's wallowed, don't know what to tell you there. There might be a tapered reapir bushing available---dunno. If there is an oversized hole there a new seal might fill the gap.

Nothing to worry about---just cold oil. It does go away. My blue does this too.

Now, if when it's warm out and it doesn't return to center (not "neutral" technically) then the gas spring might be bad--but I doubt it.
