Hi Fellow Tractor Friends, I read posts often, but haven't posted in years-- haven't needed to. But now I am pulling my hair out with my 2004 John Deere 2210. 3 Cyl. Yanmar Diesel. Several times now it has died with no notice. Acts like it's out of fuel, will start but immediately die...

I realized at 880 hours that my 62c mower deck has never had the gearbox fluid changed. The manual recommends it be done at 500 hours. So I removed the gearbox, and wrestled the plug out (wow- that was some really strong sealant), and expected cruddy sludgy goop after going the extended...

Hi all, been lurking and reading for years, this is my first post. You wouldn't believe the amount of fun I've been having trying to replace my broken hydrostatic fan on my 2210 (busted by a stick at some unknown point in the last 200 hours). Removed ROPS, Fenders, Floor and Levers... got the...
