    Grand L 3130 will only start with shuttle in gear

Nothing I do will crank it now. Any one have any suggestions on how I can test the switch to make sure I...

    Grand L 3130 will only start with shuttle in gear

    Thanks Bulldog! I didnt know that. I will try to figure out where its located under the dash. Hopefully thats the problem. Come to think of it now, sometimes I had to move the shuttle shifter a little when it was in neutral to make it start every once in a while. Merry christmas buddy

    Quick detach bucket ?

    Vic the loader upgrade would be a simple update to the linkage on the bottom of the ram? The upgrade on the bucket would have to be welded on... Correct?

    Quick detach bucket ?

    Vic, I do have a good welding shop available. The problem is I am not sure exactly what needs to be modified. I have seen the quick disconnect only once. Where could I see pictures at?

    Newbie needs help, all advice welcome

    What is your plans for the trees? If you dont plan on trying to remove huge stumps, I wouldn't get anything bigger than a 35 hp max. You would be better off having someone remove the stumps instead of spending lots of extra dollars for a bigger tractor than you need. However, a 30hp tractor...

    Display Light ?

    Vic, You were right. The service light went away doing just as you described! This may sound stupid, :o but what is glycol? Some sort of anti-freeze? :confused: How much does the radiator hold so I know how much glycol to buy? Will just a flush do the job? Thanks
