Thanks for telling me what kind it is. My curiosity was killing me. I like a 4x4 loader tractor.

Sure its a 3514 Hydrostatic

A loader and an AK grizzly hunt beats a skidsteer every time.

Sure does

I can tear so stuff up with a good loader LOL

Someday maybe for me...

What was the issue in need of repair?

I dont think you can get rid the Bosch and change to a more common type, but if its rebuilt now it should give you a lot of trouble free days of work, one thing with that begin a hydrostat you may need ear protection, if its like the 656 hydro it will whine when its cold.

Main reason was seals in the Fuel injector pump were blown

Fuel and oil all mixed in the system

Thanks for the pictures. I like seeing other people's tractors.

I bet your tractor is quieter than a Massey- Ferguson 274. When you hit the throttle everything seems to scream even with ear plugs.

You're welcome run

Tractors are cool !!

MF274?!?!?!
Perkins 236 diesel.....
I have one in my yard 13,000 hours.... second clutch...everything else original

One tough made machine....dad bought it brand new in 1982

Mine is a D239 diesil - Hydrostatic
1965

The mechanic told me you could probably run that thing on Hog fat and not hurt the engine!
LOL!
The fuel injector rebuild kit was on backorder Bosch of Germany
Almost 3 months

Thanks for sharing, browndusti. There's more tractor lovers on trapperman than I thought. We've been having problems with the brakes sticking on our 274.

Back in the days when machines where made to last, no stupid emissions control devices or plastic parts....big difference in a 60 HP tractor back then compared to modern ....

That 274 is definitely my favorite tractor. My brother gets to run it most of the time. Family farm.

I think ours is rated @ 55 hp but it feels like 60 hp.

I grew up on the fender of it, wore that red paint off.... felt like 100 HP when you sit down in the seat as a youngster....the fun of being a farm kid

I didnt grow up on a farm



But now I am Home
