  On that one, does it have the variator drive, two belts in line? If it is the rear belt, the pulley on
  the transmission has a set screw that I have seen come loose and allow it to walk in and out on t...

  Should be an easy fix. But I would highly recomend looking into doing the belt also. Generally the belt
  is fifty bucks or so. The idler pulley around twenty. At my shop we charge two hours for a tract...

  Thermostat, water pump, I have also seen the pump pulley get so worn on the older models that it does not

  Go see the dealer and order the lock kits that the states have installed, locking fuel cap, locking hood,

  Could be a broken valve in the steering metering pump at the bottom of the steering column. If the

  What style of transmission does it have? If it is a hydrostat, has anything been done recently? If not,
