Stieger tractors were very prone to a poor clutch life. I had a ST325 that I bought new and was the only thing that I ever owned that ever got a clutch job in my lifetime and I think we changed the clutch in that tractor at least three times. You take the seat out of the cab and they had a plate in the bottom of the cab and a rail that they used a special tool on that held the transmission and rolled the transmission back far enough to get the clutch out from underneath the tractor. Not an easy job but duable with enough patience. When working a Stieger tractor you always engaged the clutch with the tractor idle and the tool that you were pulling up out of the ground. That was only one of their problems. Poor hydraulics, weak planetary gears in the wheel hubs, air conditioner that at it's best was just a little better than none at all and rim to rim mounted duals just to mention a few. I was never so glad to see it go down the road. Sorry that I can't be of more help but did not have a good experience with the Stieger.

If you rebuild the motor, you could use hardened seats and valves, and unleaded fuel. But if your old tractor runs good, a simple lead substitute added to the gas is a perfectly reasonable solution. And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
