Jim in NC pretty well covered it. The most common problem is play in the steering, or broken castings. The 140 is a great little tractor when used within it's limits. In addtition to what Jim said, be sure to drive it around and check the transmission for noise. Whine is normal, but louder noise is not. If the oiler gear in the transmission is bad, you have to take everything in the back end apart to replace it. A bad oiler gear won't affect the operation unless you are doing stationary PTO or belt work. The oiler gear is only needed when the transmission is in neutral to oil the bearings and gears. These tractors usually sell from $2000 to $5000, with a common price being around $3000, depending on the condition and your location. They sell higher in the Southeast, as they are used a lot for tobacco farming. The plus side to that is many of them were only used once a year to cultivate and side dress tobacco so they don't have a lot of hours. Since you have had to get it running yourself, the price should be towards the lower end. A plus is the implements that come with it and also a plus if it has the one point fast hitch. With a Woods belly mower, the 140 is a great mowing tractor.
