Greetings folks,
My father passed away a few months ago and we're just kind of working through the barn and lightening the load so to speak. He has a PT-422 with many many implements. My mom doesn't recall the last time he had it out but it was hooked to a battery maintainer and cranks fine but does not start. He made many comments in the past that the motor needed work or potentially replaced. He may have been a member here but I'm not sure of his screen name. It has the original Robin 22hp. I don't recall how many hours but it was pretty low...maybe ~300. I'm assuming it needs some work and since my mother lives 4 hours from me its not going to be done by me. So I have spent a little time looking for someone to take a look at it and have been striking out. We'd ultimately just get rid of it so I'm wondering if just selling it as-is is my best bet or if anyone knows of someone who can run through it and get her 100% before she goes for sale? Tractor is located in Illinois and I'm in Michigan. Willing to drive.
