I went and took a look at it Saturday. The guy hasn't started it since June and when we got there I had to put a new battery in for the guy. Almost started when we first tried but didn't. We had to use starting fluid to get it started. There was a heavy blue/white smoke but got much clearer after awhile. Someone I talked to said, that would be expected from a diesel that has been sitting for a few months. Is this true?
On the right side of the engine, I believe its the injector pump, (don't know what one looks like) There was diesel seeping out between the top plate. and about every 4 seconds it would drip onto the block. Is that a sign that its time for a rebuild job or is something just loose?
I offered him $3000 but the lowest he would go was $3200. It needs new rear tires, which will cost me $610. He has my number and said if he changes his mind, he would call me. Am I digging myself into a hole with this tractor?
