Bringing a 640 Back To Life (was Newcomer)

Well, I finally have this tractor out in the field... All repairs and
upgrades are complete.

It is a much more comfortable tractor compared to my 8N.
The sitting position is perfect.

Being able to have the implement elevated without running
the PTO is great.

Seems to be able to run all day with very cool operating
temps. It's great on fuel and uses very little oil.

I couldn't have got this tractor up and running without you guys... Thanks

Glad you got her up an going.

one point though.. even on an 8n.. you could elevate the implement and leave it there then turn the hyds off. just disabling the pto did not make the hyds drop.. 2 seperate things working there.. valving and cyls seal, vs pumping action.

still live hyds beats it all..
