I bought a 706g with the 263 at an auction earlier this year. Well, it was a real mistake. I now have a lot of money tied up in this tractor with a new engine block, clutch and pistons, valves etc...
I have about twice what this tractor is worth tied up in it. I was hating life until...
I used it.
I know it sounds silly, but I am in love with this tractor. The mechanic fixed the shifting problems and it now starts with just a little choke and a bump of the starter button.
I spent all last weekend bush hogging with my 3 point 6' bush hog and it was like it wasn't even back there. I feel good knowing that I now have a tractor I can rely on.
Live PTO, live hydraulics, good brakes, 12v charging system, much more smoooooooth horsepower... Even though it is only 15 years newer, this tractor makes my M look like a relic.
I am glad I spent the money to get this old girl running right and I will enjoy the next 30 years with her.
