Happy New Year
I have a few questions about my 706 gas tractor?
1.) What is the proper way to time the tractor? Do I set the timing at a full throttle or at a set RPM?
2.) I have read on this forum in the past that you can add (5) extra gallons of hydraulic fluid to possibly correct a no steering issue at start up. I added the (5) gallons, but I still do not have steering at start up. it takes about a minute to have steering? Is there something else I should be checking to help with the issue?
3.) When I run the tractor sometimes it will just shut off and I have no power at the key switch. A lot of times I wait a little and it will then have lights on the dash and will start right back up. This past week the power did not come back, so I started to check wiring. I pulled the right side gauge panel lose and was checking to see if mice had eaten some wires. I did not see anything, but then I had power again. So I am assuming that I have a loose connection in the original wiring? Is there a place to get a new wiring harness? Also could my resistor block be contributing to this issue? Also the fuse by the key is for what features?
Thanks
