"I've had this now for 12 years. I had to replace the head gasket due to overheating. The overheating was caused by the rebuilders using glue or sealant on the gasket which occluded the water flow. I have put over 80 hours on it since replacing and it has not overheated. I'm in South Florida where temperatures typically reach the mid-nineties. I have a Koyker 120 loader and use an auger, box blade, and 4-foot bush hog. I have been very happy with this tractor and have put many hours on it. Obviously, given its size, it has limitations like anything. Use it for its intended workload."

"My Yanmar 2000D is a small light weight tractor. I have been very happy with this tractor the 4 wheel drive is great. It gets the power to the ground the last tractor! The last tractor I had was an old Ford which did the job but I'm much happier with this four wheel drive. When plowing in four wheel drive the front tires actually mix the dirt breaking up in smaller pieces like a tiller. It's a great tractor"

"Great little tractor. I run the legs off this thing with implements and the FEL. It always starts and just keeps going. I use it primarily for food plots and mowing but using add in toils I have dug up a lot of trees too. I admit I abuse it but it just keeps on going. Once a year I do have to re-tighten all the bios since it does vibrate quite a bit with a 3 cylinder engine."

"My Yanmar tractor that I bought new had a water pump fail at 32 hrs then at 55 hrs one or both of my fuel injectors has failed. I have worked on this tractor more than my 88 Lincoln town car and it is over twenty years old."

"Great old refurb tractor. 24 hp I believe. Was refurbed in the US with Koyker bucket/hydraulics. Def require the 4 wheel drive with a smaller tractor to offset lack of weight when the bucket is full. Those front wheels make you 'go' at that point. Runs like a top and fights above it's weight class."
