Looked at a 2390 today, first off, how do you start one of these tractors, besides turning the key? Horsepower? Any weaknesses?

Push the fuel stop down and turn the key.Rated at 160 hp.most produced 180-190 with stock settings.With a lot of hours the torque limiter could need attention,if it was updated it should have a 94 series limiter,and they are almost bullet proof.If its short wheel base the ride is rough,longs were fine.Like the post below says in cold weather warm the tranny.Make sure it has a coolant filter.

As long as it is out of gear and the fuel shut-off is pushed in, it will start. I was told ours had 180 h.p.. Always started easy in cold weather. Never had any trouble of any kind with the powershift. If it's cold out, it needs to be warmed up is all. FIL had his for 10 years, and had no major trouble of any sort. Start it and aim it, it will do the rest.

The case 2390 is only 160hp, the 2590 is 180

Well, it was 78 degrees here today, throttle was pushed forward a little, and tried all of the way, shut off pushed down, smoked (black), turned over excellent, but would not start. Tractor has 4500 hours on it, was supposed to have had $14,000 spent in the rear end a few years ago. As far as long, or short version, I do not know, but sitting in the cab, it did have a lot longer hood than a 1486 IH.

Sorry earl, I'm going to be of no use to you now. Was figuring you just didn't have the shut-off down. Never had this problem. We would let it sit from Oct/Nov to March and never had this trouble. Hope Wide Open's suggestion works for you. Good luck. (FIL's went for less than 10K at consignment auction. It had about the same hours and no known problems.)

To start this tractor have it in either neutral or park, fuel shut off all the way down, and turn the key. If that does not work you must have some electrical problems. Hope that helps!

My 2470(same engine as 2390) will sometimes lose its prime if it sits for more than a week or so without being run. It will turn over good and will smoke black, but will not start. I then prime it about 5 pumps on the primer and it will fire right up. Runs perfect after you get it goin.
