    Row Buster

    Row Buster is printed on the rear end. That’s the only name I see on it. Just purchased it from a small estate sale. Need to know where I can find information about it such as what implements are available for it. Value “IF” it runs?

    Carb for MF 85

    I had/ have a similar problem on my 135, almost identical symptoms. (You can read about it here on this forum “MF135 gas, I’m starting to hate this tractor”) First follow the advice of others about confirming fuel flow thru the carb by checking how much flows out of the carb drain. If you have...

    MF135 gas, I'm starting to hate it!

    I think that you are correct about a bad wire between the coil and ignition switch. The switch only has one “run” terminal that feeds power to everything that needs 12v when the tractor is running. I mowed 2+ hours today with no issues using the direct coil-to-battery wire setup.

    Yes I did disconnect the coil wire.

    MF135 gas, I'm starting to hate it!

    Thanks Old for your help/advice, especially the simple explanation about why the gas stopped flowing into the sediment bowl, I guess I should have paid mor attention in 7 th grade science I ran a wire directly from the battery to the coil and mowed for about 1 hour today. I’m thinking the...

    MF135 gas, I'm starting to hate it!

    Looks like it is an electrical issue after all. This morning first thing it would not start, I pulled the coil wire off and no spark, as I'm putting the wire back on the coil and the engine is still rotating I feel it bite me. I move the coil wire end back close to a ground and turn the engine...

    MF135 gas, I'm starting to hate it!

    Update: The problem still exists. Fuel flow out of the carb bowl drain filled a pint jar in exactly 1.5 minutes. Fuel flow out of the fuel line ahead of the filter filled the pint jar in 45 seconds. The tractor starts and runs for between 2 and 5 minutes then just shuts off, will not start...

    Thanks for all the replies. I will check the fuel flow thru the carb tomorrow. I fairly sure it’s a fuel issue.

    Thanks for the responses. I will start at the carb drain tomorrow to see how much flow I have thru the carb then work backwards as suggested. And I do believe there is an inline filter, not 100% sure but will check that also. Thanks again

    MF135 gas, I'm starting to hate it!

    Yesterday I mowed pasture for about two hours and it ran great. This morning it did not want to start, got it running but its like it would run just until the fuel in the carb ran out then it would shut down. I pulled the sediment bowl off to check for fuel flow, the flow looked fine. I could...

    135 slips out of 2nd gear

    Thanks David I'll look into it but certainly am not thrilled about digging into it, I'm especially fearful of dropping something down into the great abyss!

    135 slips out of 2nd gear

    Yesterday I tested the shifting and yes is does slip into 2nd gear easily, in fact it shifts into both 2nd & 3rd without the positive "lock-in" feel that 1st & reverse have. I have not noticed it slipping out of 3rd but I have only used 3rd a tiny amount. Hopefully it will just be some...
