Mitsubishi MT372 tractor overview and 1st run 

In early 1986 I took a job at the local high school. I mowed 28 acres with this model tractor for 11 years. The fellow who did the lawns with it from brand new ran it over a hill and into a pile of cinder blocks while mowing and tore the belly mower up pretty bad. That was the mess I inherited. After 4 years we replaced the belly mower with a 4 ft finish cut mower on the rear. I mowed with it in the summer and pushed snow with it all winter. Oh the hours I spent on that tractor. I did suffer some permanent hearing loss because the engine is quite metallic sounding. In tall grass the exhaust pipe points forward so it would belch smoke back in my face and turn my skin black. I ran it out of fuel out in the field one time on an slight uphill slant and while trying to get the fuel system bled out I got an eye full of diesel fuel that caused me some permanent eye damage. I should have worn ear protection and eye protection but I was in my 20's and gonna live forever. It was a constant cycle of mowing from one end of the campus to the other and just as you finished it was time to start the cycle all over again. There were no major problems with it at all, but at one point there were some issues with the hydraulics not wanting to drop the mower. One time while mowing the football field the grass was quite tall after a week of rain. I was clipping along pretty good when out of nowhere the tractor and mower about jumped off the ground. One of the juinior high students had left a green colored lead shot put in the tall grass and I never saw it. It's years later and there I times I am mowing with my Kubota B7100 (which looks alot like this Mitsubishi) and I will be reminded of my old friend I spent all those hours with. We solved alot of problems together out there mowing. I don't know where it ever ended up. I transferred to another county job and it was shortly after that they replaced the old Mitsubishi with a 755 John Deere. But that old MT372 is permanently etched into my mind.

pay attention to your glow plug inductor wait till it glows about 30 to 40 seconds before you crank

Hope you have found by now your hood is setting on your battery cable is y it is high on the left side

Great video!...I wonder do we need to step on the clutch while starting the engine?

Does it have live power(PTO)? Are filters(oil,fuel,air) available/easy to get?

how too change hydro fluid and gear oil

I just bought a Mitsubishi tractor its an older grey tractor. It starts but once I start running the tractor it dies. Have you had any issues with yours? Thanks
