Went to look at 74 1530 diesel today. The sheet metal is good but needs a paint job. Has a 145 loader that is in great condition. Rubber is 80% and it starts and runs really well with just a little white smoke at start up which goes away pretty quick. The PTO shaft has a small leak, a couple of lines going into the injector pump appear to have leaked at one time and the right brake has to be pumped a couple times to work, the left is fine. This guy bought it off of the original owner two years ago and has ran one tank of fuel through it! The tach works but not the hour meter which shows 1135 hours. The original owners manual shows 571 hours when serviced at a dealer in 84, so everything sounds ok as far as the hours not being far off. However, he told me that he talked to the tech that worked on this tractor it"s whole life, and that it has had everything done to it that needs doing, including an out of frame rebuild about 5 years ago. My concern is why would it have needed that with so few hours on it? Is this a good tractor? It has one remote and a continuous running PTO. Straight 8/4 transmission with no HI/Lo. Sorry for the long post but I"ve got him down to $5,500 and need some info. Thank you all very much.

That tractor has a lot of years on it for just 1135 hrs. The hour-meter might have rolled over or been replaced. An out of frame overhaul would indicate crankshaft/main brg problems to me. Tx Jim

Also, this tractor has a Roto-Diesel injector pump. I've never heard of this pump?
