Forgot to add this but  it also has a new idea loader that goes on it but it needs a new bucket and the cylinders that tilt the bucket

With engine issues I wouldnt pay more than 2,000 to 2,500....decent unrestored Series IV's seem to bring in the 4000 range but engine problems can get super expenisve.

yes but it runs fines seems to give no trouble the guy  still hasnt looked at the engine to see if the sleeve is scoured and after they put a head gasket on it it seemd cherry, any way of telling the sleeve is messed up?

to can do a compression check if the sleeve is messed up you will see it in the readings all the cylinders readings should be fairly close to each other
