 Very nice rig, I have a 2150 MFWA Heavy duty version. The main thing is to check the engine, make sure the big 478 Hurk is not putting out a lot of smoke from underneath. As these engines get older they start blowing by and slobbering out the blow by tube. The less smoke and oil from the tube the better. Almost all these engines leak oil at the filters, there are ways to fix that if that is a problem. There are also some other updates that could have been done, or can be depending on what you have on the engine, like changing the fuel filters, and fixing the leaky tach drive gear on the front cover. I can tell you more about these if you get it. You also want to check out the front end good, problems here can be costly. Make sure the front wheels pull and run smoothly, no popping or noises from the front end. Check the seals and oil levels on the differentials and the transfer case. Other than that just the normal stuff that you would look at on an Oliver, that it shift in all three ranges, breaks work, PTO, hydraulics, steering, etc. You will really like the MFWA on these big tractors, they run really smooth through the field and they are a real brute of a tractor.
