Need some help. I live in v. rough country and have to maintain my farm track roads with a tractor and a blade on the three-point.

I went backwards at a high rate of speed and was fortunate to be at a place with no curve and a wide landing area. Since then, I take great care in keeping it tuned, clean gas-tank-lines and filter, and so on. But it is a machine, and one day it will stall again.

I'm a retired soldier, not a tractor mechanic. A graded road ain't worth dying for.
