How have you tested that 2 speed clutch? It could be a simple ground or switched 12V connection. Have you attempted to use a jumper wire to verify as listen for the audible clicking? It could also be that the key in the PTO/Crankshaft has sheared and not engaging. ShowMeGuy

Man... I've been looking at KC as well.... there are a couple 753s out there now.. but to me still on the high end for what they are..... I'm not planning to use the machine to make my living.. but to help me do jobs around the house and farm, like cleaning out my tiling and terraces. etc. CASH...

I'm trying to keep gassers out of here.. I've been on the hunt for one this summer. I've got a JD 430 that I mow the grass with and it's a hoss for a mower.... And it sipps fuel compared to the Zero Turn I bought that was like mowing on a bucking bronco... UGH! The only one I seen out there I'd...

3000-3500 for the package correct is what you are saying?

The guy was asking 6k for both the 732 and the 909. Unfortunately it looks like the ol boy has let it sit for 3 years or so. I took the compression tester out and the #1 cyl was dead, #2 was good at 120-130 psi, #3 was questionable at 60-70psi and #4 was 110-120psi. It could just be a valve...

So I take it you don't care much fro the 732 or just the little ford 4cyl? :) Maybe a little background on your opinion or expand on it?

ahhh great.. I see what you are talking clearly from those pics on the link. BTW. what does everyone think acceptable compression numbers for a compression test for the 1.6L that I in this machine?

This one doesn't look to have them coming off the front like I seen on this one I found for sale.. http://stlouis.craigslist.org/grd/4734398702.html What exactly does it slip over on the actual machine? been looking for a pic but haven't seen one that is helping me connect the dots...

Curious on what others think of this combo? is the 909 a little much for a 732? What more can a guy do to test things on a skidsteer that is not in running condition? Ran well when parked kind of deal. It has the ford 98-4 motor. Anything beside a compression test I guy could/should do? Spark...

Yeah, I did notice that the valve had 3 spools (think that is the right terminology) The one on the far left as from the seat is capped off. My manual shows there being an auxilary pedal between the foot pedals but I'm not sure I want anything else down there.. If that is the only route or...

HotRod, How are you engaging your grapple on your 310? I'd like to do something like that on my spare bucket I got on this basketcase 310 I got... ShowMeGuy over in STL... :)

Well I just didn't think about that... WELD IT! I did just that and got it back in and adjusted. Just need to refill the case after I drained it and looked in the chain case. Need some more oil and then it will be time to test it out again. Thanks for the idea HotRod.. ShowMeGuy

Pretty sure I figured it out.. the adjustment nut has a tang on it that rides in the LH/RH thread piece which had sheared off..... Holiday weekend, so I am in a holding pattern until I get it ordered and it shows up..... Will update the outcome then..

I'm working on getting the basket case 310 I picked up in working condition. I've got it running and moving but not well enough to put it to work. The right reverse clutch is not engaging. (I'm adjusting the right front clutch) Hopefully someone is familiar with it enough to help steer me no pun...
