They sound quite similiar to the ampli-torque. MM used a heavier oil in the transmission and ampli-torque (80-90w). It was always stated in the operators manual to make sure the oil is completely warmed up before engaging the AT or it will slip and damage will result. They are mechanically engaged. My 670 A-T is good yet as the previous owner had it rebuilt. My older 5 Star is a different story, low is completely gone as you come to a stop in low range. I have wondered about using a thinner oil in mine but I dont use it in colder weather so I havent done anything with it yet. I may have to try to check out the Massey as you stated as I can relate to what you are talking about the "feel" of it. I know if Im plowing with mine I have to make sure if Im in low and shift to high there isnt much of a load as I will pop a wheelie. Ive always liked the 285s 1085 and 1105s. I sat in a 1105 at a dealer about a month ago. Decent shape, long axles, but they wanted around $14,000 for it. What was the main difference between the 285 and 1085?
