I add a quart of ATF to each diesel tractor twice a year. My diesel pump shop recommended it to help keep the pump clean inside. He claims the ATF is full of solvents that help keep the pump metering valves from sticking. I had a customer with a 2440 with a Rosa Master pump that called and complained about lack of power. The tractor had new filters but had sat for awhile. I told him to add ATF and he laughed at me but did add two quarts and went back to using it. He called back and said it kept running better and better. I have a friend on the east coast that his shop recommends the same thing. They say on a tractor that has been setting to fill the fuel filters with ATF and pump the ATF thru the pump and let it set for a day or two before trying to run it. Now for cold weather we buy winterized diesel from our supplier and still add some Power Service when it gets cold but we need to go every day no matter what to feed cattle. Tom

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
