I feel I'm neglecting the MV6.
What do you reckon?
-
Won't the Wurzels get a bit miffed if you do? ;D
-
Does the mv6 need attention?
Or are you just fed up with the tractor?? ::)
-
If (with another gearbox) it runs fine.... unquestionably yes.... just not necessarily to a forum member though! ;)

Ah but what happens if said buyer then joins OOF, and posts Ive just bought this tractor of a dodgy bloke in MK and it overheats....whats wrong ;D

Overheating is cured. The gearbox is now behaving, absolutely no idea why.
-
What was the cure for the over heating in the end then????
-
If you bought it as a project the answer is sell to make a few bob. You've cured the overheating and changed the box so take a profit and move on.
-
I expect to make a loss on it, as I have replaced lots on this.
Not too sure what has cured the overheating, suspect it was the oil flush.
There is, imho, still an issue. Seems to be too much pressure in cooling system.

Good news :y
Flog it then :y
-
hmm give me a shout if u r selling it :D pretty plz i might be intrestead if i have the cash at that time ofc
-
Is it still losing coolant through the cap?
If you don't mind me asking, what would you be looking for in it's current condition?
-
Punt it - it takes in the wrong fuel :D
-
The bad points are:
It appears to have a coolant leak, Tunnie and I have seen it drip from bellhousing, and as A/C not working, its not from that. Cannot locate it, though with recent weather, haven't really been able check as the whole rather thing is wet.
I think the coolant has too much pressure - possibly related to above?
A/C not working. It wasn't when I got it, then it sprung in to life and worked until gearbox failed, then hasn't since. So, will require regas.
Front heated seats not working, haven't checked why.
Front bumper not fixed properly one side. I have a new mount, but can't work out how its supposed to fix on :-[
Tyres will need replacing, esp rears. Wrong wheels.
And although behaving now, I'll have to mention autobox. A couple of weeks back it lost drive again twice.
Not sure what its worth, though I expect to make a loss - I've bought rad (£234 - GM), stat (£15), waterpump (£70), other odds and ends inc gearbox :(, and a fortune on coolant, flushes etc etc. I would say it owes me over a grand easily.
I may sell cheap if I take out the Bose ;)
