....its lonely! I would be more than happy to sell you another one so it wouldn't be lonely anymore.  Mine is steadily nickel and diming me to death, actually more like a couple hundred at a pop.  It's dads tractor and he doesn't really want to part with it too badly.  There are few nice features, especially compared to the Oliver 1650, but I think there has to be a better more reliable tractor out there.

 Good luck with yours.  I hope it doesn't have a loader in it, if it does I would use it very carefully and do not pic up a very heavy load with it.  I have changed enough parts in the front axle to know.
