One of the main items to look for you won't find without operating the tractor. Popping out if gear is one of the more diffcult issues to fix, even that isn't so common. After that the M and H are pretty much indestructable. The basics are oil and coolant leaks, cracked castings, brake and clutch peddle tension and smoke at start up. There is no common "weak point" in these tractors, IH got it right and didn't screw it up until the early 560s came out. Most Ms and Hs "die" from being parked without a rain cap on the exhaust and that freezes up the engine. Even then they are coaxed back to life sometimes.
