I'm trying to revive this old girl, but she's putting up a fight. I'm not sure of the year, but it's not a Lo-Boy, and it's got a C-3 Rotary Mower on it. My three main problems are:
1. massive oil leak from what I assume is the rear main seal
2. electrical problem of some sort that keeps it from starting with any regularity
3. [i:0e614a9c90]when[/i:0e614a9c90] it's running it seems very under-powered (won't climb even a small grade), and sometimes sputters and tries to stall even on flat ground (which leads to problem #2)
it's been about a year since I've messed with this machine, and I realize that this post is a typical "new guy" post with little to no real information, and I'm not near the machine (about a 90 minute drive - it lives at our camp). So for that I apologize. But I just found this forum, and I don't have internet access at our camp.
Any general help would be appreciated. I managed to find several service manuals for a few different years Farmalls, so I have [i:0e614a9c90]some[/i:0e614a9c90] resources, but spending time in a forum always works better for me.
