All, I found a "deal" on a 656 diesel. The owner states that it doesn"t run right now. Said it was in a field working and quit. Said engine was rebuilt about 100 hrs ago and the injection pump has been rebuilt trying to remedy the problem. He says that it tried to start a couple weeks ago when he looked at it but cut right back off. It has a narrow front and is not a hydro. He is asking 1200.00 for it. Is it worth taking a look at? I"m not interested in it as a parts machine. If I were to purchase it, I would want to get it back into running shape to use around the house. There is also a non running 460 in the same area for the same money with a similar issue. Owner states it was skipping and he had the injection pump rebuilt. It was still skipping after the pump rebuild so he had the injectors tested. He said 2 injectors tested bad but he did not have the repaired/replaced. He wants 1500 for that tractor. Any opinions would be appreciated.

On the 656 at that price you can replace the injectors and have it timed and still have a heck of a deal.

I've bought a lot of non runners over the years, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse. Even though you say you arent interested in it being a parts tractor, in my opinion it is the only way you can put a value to it. Running or not, the value of the tractor can only be determined by figuring worst case scenario if it simply gets too costly to make a useful machine out of it and you need to recoup your losses. My experience has been that it end up being the problems you find AFTER you get it running that tip the scales in favor of buying a runner in the first place. With a non runner, you are unable to get a feel for things like clutch, TA, hydraulics, charging systems and the like.

Owner also said that his mechanic thinks it isn't quite in time. He said 1 injector was getting plenty of fuel while the rest were just dribbling...
