I purchased this tractor as used. The battery needed charged and after the next morning I noticed an oil spot under the machine. Sears came out, found the leak and replaced the engine with a new one. The manual transmission's clutch was very sensitive for the first year of use. After that I noticed the wheels seemed to turn in a little. The gearshift selector cover wants to pop off in the back sometimes. Other that this tractor seems very nice.
