I bought a tractor a couple weeks ago. Anyway it now has all new fluids in it, new filters all around, new head gasket, and so on.
What I'm puzzling over with it now is that it will run fine at an idle, but when you take it to the field and run it wide open for a while all of a sudden it will cough and sputter a little bit and die, just like my gas 560 does when it runs out of gas.
