BC Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Well done on getting your first vintage tractor Cerin. I would recommend the NFU for insurance. I have my five tractors insured fully comprehensive and at certain values with them. Last year the premium was £ 193.72 in total which is quite reasonable.

Lord Ferguson Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Mavis is with the NFU too Cerin... costs about £65 per year I believe \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intey 434 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 cerin just be careful if you going to use the tvo. the petrol is used to get her warmed up then you switch over to the tvo, if you switch over too soon it aint good for the engine. if you are just going to have the tractor to run about in/take to rallies you would be safer stick to the petrol as if the tractor is not being worked she will not be properly warmed,in turn wrecking your engine if going to work a long day ploughing a field then thats when tvo comes in ;) Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 There's no real damage you can do to a petrol/TVO engine by turning over too soon, if the engine is not hot enough to vaporise the TVO then it will just splutter to a stop. You may get a bit of carboning up of the electrodes on the plugs and have the inconvenience of having to drain the carbourettor and float chamber of TVO and then 'bleeding' it through with petrol but thats it really.
