Oddbean new post about login | logout This is how I start my tractor... Hot wire. https://v.nostr.build/FiS3CLVzDu77pHEx.mp4 The dash shorted out and caught on fire last winter and the starter relay rusted out so I took the dash off and hot wire it to start it now. Who needs gauges and ignition switches anyway...
What kind of tractor?
Piece of shit. It's a foton. One of the biggest mistakes I've made. Buying an oddball tractor with no parts availability.
Foton!? Huh. I am going to have to google it. I went with Yanmar. We had a local dealer in down for parts and it still had some of its 10 year powertrain warranty left when I bought it from auction.
Chinese tractor (foton). I probably spent too much time researching tractors. I had to narrowed down to. Yanmar, kubota, or new holland. There was a YouTube video I found that compared all the brands and where they were made. Where they were made seems to correlate with quality.
