I acquired a 1946 AC B model along with a cabin I recently bought. The previous owner had passed away, and a neighbor said the tractor was used occasionally. It has some problems and I could use some advice.
I put in a new battery and fresh gas and got it started. It took a few tries because it sounded like the starter was not fully engaging the ring gear. Need a gear relacement? When it did engage it turned over fine.
I tried the PTO and hydraulic lift. The PTO worked, but the lift didn"t. I checked the oil level - unscrewed the big plug on the lower left of the transmission housing and the oils a milky white color. Not good. Related to the non-working lift? I"ll drain the transmission tomorrow. What kind of fluid should I refill with and how much will it take?
Other than the occasional grinding start and the milky oil, the tractor has nice sheet metal, new tires, and runs nice. Thanks for your help.
