Had to move the 2-u home so we pull started her to warm her up so she would start easier when we got her home. The loader could handle it on the concrete but in the grass she lost traction . 4th gear was good but after a good run it would not stay in gear so I used 3rd which was all the loader could do. This was the first time in probably 20 years this tractor ran this far on it own power. My friends son is sitting on the engine squirting the either I told him to start spraying and giver the whole can. We were engulfed by dust and rust as you can see at one point it sure was fun had by all. Im on the 2u and my friend is coaching the loader operator. My son is filming with his phone.

    "I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
