I'm having issues with my Ford 3600, and am out of time trying to figure it out and get it running. My previous tractor repair guy was "Forest Lake Tractor", but he's now retired and moved away.

Does anyone have any recommendations for tractor repair in east central Minnesota, north of the Twin Cities?

Thanks in Advance,

Larry

Rod at Forest Lake Tractor is a great mechanic and I hope he is enjoying his retirement up north. He had a heck of a nice tractor collection. Two dealers that I have dealt with that are good mechanics are:
Jensen Tractor in Askov.

Gerlach's in Cottage Grove.
There is a Gerlach's outdoor in Hastings that is a different dealer that only works on lawn and garden.

There use to be a few others in Washington county but in the past 15 years most retired or passed away. Hope this helps @LESchwartz

I saw a Craigslist ad for "Mechanized Resources LLC" in Buffalo, MN. But they're quite a ways away. Hoping for a recommendation for someone closer . . .

Where in MN are you? It would help with this discussion.

I was assuming you were in northern Washington county or southern Chisago County based off of your experience going to Forest Lake Tractor.

I'm in NE Anoka County, but I would be willing to go anywhere in east central Minnesota, north of the Twin Cities . . .

I would recommend Jensen then. They are an hour away, but good mechanics are hard to find. Most of the ones I know of in the area are retired. Baribeau Implement might be able to work on it. However their rates will be high, and I am not sure if their tech's are familiar with carbs.
