old tractor
I've stumbled across a tractor like this one only much rougher. I can get it for cheap. She ran 3 yrs ago and was driven to where it sits now. Oil looked clean, battery dead, no gas.
I thought about dropping in a battery to see if it'll kick over. Will I damage something? Am I better off trying to crank the engine over with a wrench? How would you approach testing to see if it's gonna come to life. I don't expect it to run right off the bat but i would'nt mind knowing if I should go ahead and buy it.
