I'm going to look at a 1486, this weekend, and would like to go armed with the facts...
Firstly, it is important to know that this is the UK, and these tractors are private import only, and were never sold here, officially.
Secondly, I am a service engineer, and have worked for a New Holland dealership, in one of my past lives
I only tell you this, so you know I am savy enough to check for generic faults.
What I'm lacking is a source of (reliable) information/advice regarding the known faults and indicators for these tractors.
My main concern is that I will overlook some minor fault, unaware that it is the only the surface manifestation of a more serious failure!
With this in mind, I'd really appreciate your input regarding the known problems and associated warning signs. I'm aware that this series of tractor was very popular in the US, so I'm hoping there is a wealth of knowledge available.
In advance; Many Thanks!
