I think the head gasket blew on the 1100 again. Ran good last time, couldn't hardly get it to crank today, and made 4 gallons of water disappear before it finally decided it could hold it's drink. Dealer sure isn't going to like me, still ain't paid all the shop bill yet either. Some days make you wonder.
Edit: Got to replace the block, wonderful dealer is hunting around for one, sure hope he is in a mood to negociate, this bill won't be pretty.

Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is unknown. The present is God's present to us to do with as we choose.
Way it is going, if he can't fix it this time, it is his baby and I will walk away. This is damn redicilous. I had pushed to drop a different motor in the tractor, he wanted to rebuild the origional, dad went with him. Between that and trading off another tractor to turn around and buy one, in hindsight, should have fixed what I had, wouldn't have been any better, but devil you know. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20, my forsight is defiantly not.

Im right there with ya right now. Bought a skidloader a year and a half ago. 1200 hours(im starting to doubt that now). 2500 in a flexplate last fall....and now the left hydro is going out...at this rate i could probably have bought a very close to new skidloader for what im going to have in this one..
