help id this tractor

[SailorBob]

It looks kind of like my YM1700 but, some things are screwy there. Mine has the dipstick on the starboard side. The muffler is round

Looks like my 240d. Except for 4w/d naturally, no externial air cleaner, and the flat muffler

I see it's listed on that online auction site we can't mention anymore. Not far from me.

Why can't we mention that site? I see that our Staff/Moderator Hakim even mentions it and posts links to it in his posts.

Good question Dudley,
Last time I posted a link there the thread was pulled and I got a note from our moderator saying TBN was being sued by a disgruntled member who had followed a link and got burned on his purchase.

Ok I won't mention the site but here's a number that might show you that tractor : 170201102410
(maybe that won't get me in trouble )

He's honest about the condition. I can't imagine buying it unless I already had a nicer one with a cracked block or something. This one is not in any condition to put in service.

gears work fine except 5th gear, it does nothing in 5th gear/position, not even make noise. ... The hydraulics are intermittent, I don't know if the pump is going bad or if the oil needs to be changed?

Looking at Soundguy's photo I thought he already changed the hydraulic oil. I sure hope he didn't put the stuff in that pail back in!

This looks to me like one to avoid. Somebody ran every last ounce of value out of that tractor long ago then parked it out in the rain for another 10 years. There's nothing left but maybe some parts.
