Thanks for the pics J J. What kind of repair work have you had to do to it over the years.

I think it is about 10 years old. The folks that had it before me took good care of it. The only trouble I had with it was a starting problem which I finally found. The leads on back of the neutral switch were shorted together. Intermittently I may add. I guess It could have took off if the treadle was not centered.

PT says they don't have much info on this model, or they just don't want people to know. The have to know what engine they put in their machines. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Some one told me it was a Ford industral 4 cyl. Runs great. I have no idea what the model number is.

Can you believe it's 75 degrees here in Jacksonville, Fl ? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yeah, it's in the mid-40s here and raining. Very mild winter so far except for a short cold snap a couple weeks ago.

No big repairs so far. I did rebuild the three cyl up front, and my tilt arm froze to the 2 in pin. I cut it out and welded a new set on. I am in the process of building a backhoe that mounts on the front, and a grapple for the hoe.

That is good service J J. I'll be looking forward to seeing that back hoe.
