Howdy from yet another Massey 135 / Z145 owner

[Lava Rancher]

Howdy all,
I've been lurking here for months but decided to jump in. I recently purchased a well used Massey 135 equipped with a continental Z145 and multipower. The multipower is not functioning at this time but hopefully I'll remedy that as time goes on. I'm thumbless when it comes to mechanical things due to inexperience but eager to learn. I've enjoyed the restoration threads of many here and the congenial atmosphere. Happy to be here.

Thanks for the welcome. Unlike some prolific 135 posters, I'm here to learn.

I'll get some pictures at some point. Tractor is cosmetically rough but runs well so far. Hand throttle is problematic, is progressive when opening throttle but not when closing, just an irritant for now. Draft control is amazing, I'll never buy a tractor w/o it.
