I think I got taken. I bought a 1952 TO30 today. While looking it over at the
seller's, everything seem to start up fine and work as it should for an old
tractor. After I got it home, it still started up and ran fine until I actually
tried to put it work. It doesn't seem to have much power at all! I have on old 7'
homemade back blade that I hooked up to blade a sandy driveway. It bogged it down
to the point of stalling. Is the blade too heavy for it and I'm expecting too much
out of it? It came with a two-bottom MF plow and a MF cultivator. I would think if
it was designed to pull a plow, a back blade shouldn't be that much of an issue.
Should I be looking for 5' blade? Also, when I shut it down, a second or two later
it will backfire once... softly. Weird. What are my options?
