Fettled it a little.with the magic spanner.
 
We had some issues with the PTO kicking out even before we turned it up. Need to look further into this but this is last photo I got.... It went up to 138 at the shaft before kicking out again. Bit of a ball.ache but I'll look into it when I get chance. Picks its feet up a little better on the road now.
 
Should be roughly 150-155 at engine now?

You guys have some real steel over there. My biggest tractor is a Massy Ferguson 135, 1967, gas. Then I have 3 John Deere lawn tractors, a 265 17HP with 3000 hours on it, an X540 with 1000 hours, 26HP liquid cooled, and an X500 with 16 hours on it. I used to use the 265 to pull my Vermeer 630A stump grinder through residential lawns. I have a friend that had 3 rental properties. One of his renters got behind on the rent and had to move out. This was back in 2004. His rent was $2500 a month and he was 4 months behind. He had just bought a NorTrak 204C, 20 HP diesel, 4X4 loader, made by Jinma. He gave the tractor to my friend. Last year my friend sold the rental properties so he didn't need the tractor. He sold it to me for $2000 US. It only had 248 hours on it. I've put 100 hours on it since I've had it. I'm having trouble posting pics, I think the Trans Atlantic cable is eating them. When I figure it out, I'll post some pics of my little herd of tractors, Joe.

A couple of them. The first is a 2004 NorTrak 20HP diesel 4X4. When I first brought it home my wife asked, "Why on earth do you need a front end loader, on a one acre lot". After she saw how it likes to plant heavy stones in her garden, she likes it.  The next is a little John Deere 265, 17 HP Kawasaki with over 3000 hours on it. These pics were taken back in the winter. It was about 20*F, but a beautiful sunny, windless day. So, I mowed some of the tall grass for about an hour. The last one is a JD X540, 26 HP Kawasaki twin V, liquid cooled, with over 1000 hours. It has a 47" snow blower. I've had it 3 winters and it hasn't snowed enough to use the blower.
