| I bought a new 550 in Jan of '79. I knew the day I bought it I had made a mistake though it hadn't even been built yet. Went to get it out of the shed for wheat that summer & it had broke down sitting in the shed. Things only got worse from that point on. Didn't take long to learn what the big "MF" stood for on the front of the engine cover. It caught fire a couple times, pretty common occurrence for the 540 / 550s. Got the fire put out with a fire extinguisher. When I went to the dealer about having it fixed he said "You should have walked home & called the fire dept. He was right even though I was a mile from home. Finally was able to trade it for a new 1440 in '82 and have owned AF combines every since. | |
