Thanks for your video! I have this exact tractor and I really love it. I had a problem with mine over heating because the coolant overflow bottle cap had a crack. Unfortunately, I had to have the head gasket replaced and I replaced the cap for the coolant bottle. Everything runs well now. These tractors just want die even if you screw up and not fix something at the right time.
I’m about to start working on my track coaches yanmar 1601d so I’m doing a lot of research. He said if I fix it I can keep it. I haven’t gotten the chance to diagnose the problem yet but he says it won’t turn over. I’m hoping that it’s just simply the starter but we’ll see. I would love to hear more tips and stuff about these.
this is the first time i hear of them throwing a rod so it cant be to often, is it that engine? i have the 226d which has the 3T75HA engine which is 22hp, your model is 16hp.
