Just wanted to get an idea on what I should look for? Was gonna bring a jump box and fresh gas with me and see what happens. Anything I should really look for on this guy?
Thanks

First, welcome to OCC....... :Welcome2:

Next, it is a 16HP "Lawn" tractor. It is a 1988 model 1620.

If all you are going to do is mow lawn, it one of the better Lawn Tractors.

Yeah just cutting some grass.
Good price imo, just wanted a second opinion before looking at it in case this was one of the ones that really shouldn't have ever been made sort of ordeal...
Thanks!

It's gone so did you get it?

i did get a chance to look at it first, but no i didnt take it.
When i went to check it out and hooked my jumper box up to it, turned the key on and nothing. Hit the light switch, the dash showed "full throttle needed for start" or something like that was lite up, i ensured it was all the way up, i was sitting in the seat and she was in neutral, wont turn over. I did ensure it had oil in it and put a little fresh gas in it but she wouldnt turn over at all. i passed on it...
when i got home i was thinking maybe there was a rod that needed to be moved like for an ebrake or for pushing it around but oh well, sigh, hopefully i'll come across another in the next month or so
