      the only down side of propane is the run time is less compaired 20 lb bottle to full tank gas because they do not develop the same power as regular gas . but there is a lota plus’s for propane.

        thec only thing I would suggest is when you place the new glow plugs put some never sieze on the threads. hopefully yours will come out easily. this is not a tuff repair usally.

          yeah what could it hurt if you can get to the linkage just before it goes into the trans. disconnect it and then see if you can use some leverage to get the shift shaft to budge, also I would lubricate when it goes into the gear case housing. just only use a reasonable amount of force to get it to move.

            I do not believe that a wear in period is necessary , it should seal right from the beginning. unless maybe a heavy fibered grease was used to lube things up for fitting seal. but a short use should have the seal lips to shaft mated.

              I assume that you have felt the shaft and there are no edges or grooves that are tearing the seals. And I also assume that you are lubricating the seal and shaft before installing seal.

                normally the open side with the spring around the seal lips will go towards the oil side of the case , and I would say the washer would then go on then the lift arm. This is what I would assume.

                  well with the tank repair everything worked out ok , been a few days and I see no further leaks . I  must have brazed up a dozen pinholes. All went well with lining the tank with rede kote looks like very good adhesion to the sides and bottom. So hopefully this will be the first and last time tank repair.

                    well I talked to the local tractor guy and he suggested to use the rocks , tumble and rinse then take oven cleaner spray and spray  it down good let sit for a while and see if it cleaned the tank well enough. And yeah it did a pretty good job. So I washed it with acetone and used red kote to line the tank . then used harbor freight aerosol bed liner spray on the outside of and I guess we shall see.

                      I think that is all that is left to replace, the only suggestion I have is to take it apart first and see if there is something stupid easy fix. good luck

                        I hate to just throw parts at stuff too , but at this point what else could it be?
