| Traded a buddy and old two horse trailer for this wd. We used it last week to cut hay and rake it. Needs a tune up but I will be using it on my farm for moving round bales and such. He made a 3-point hitch for it and it works well. I have orderd a breather cover and will get a hose to hook it all up. |

| SO basically I got it for $500 and he is delivering it ( only about 15 miles from my farm) Can not wait to start getting things done on it. Like the air breather hooked up new sediment bowl clean the carb and so on |

You got a great deal. A running WD for 500 bucks is almost unheard of anymore. ------------- If it weren't for the last minute, I wouldn't get anything done! |

| you are definately 'graced' to get that one for that price,,,a trailer you can replace easier than a tractor, me thinks. |

Congratulations on your deal! And welcome aboard.
A suggestion for you: pull the aircleaner off and service it before you install that hose! Bowl should be emptied and cleaned. You may find the wire mesh inside the body of the cleaner is fouled with cooked-on oil and dirt - you need to get that out or the engine will have a hard time breathing. The challenge is that removing the mesh to clean it is a major hassle, one to avoid if possible. I just had one cleaned at a radiator shop - looks clean as a whistle. ------------- WC, CA, D14, WD45 |
