1998 6675 John Deere skidsteer with about 2200 hours on the clock. Any good/bad to look for when looking at buying one?

    Naturally all the functions work.. BUT check the blow-by tube, a lot of x they're clogged & you cant see the BLUE smoke rolling out from under it.. PULL OFF the oil fill cap while its running & look for the smoke puffing out.. or pull the dipstick halfway out.. careful tho, you might get oil splattered. Look for a coolant overflow bottle or line & look for rusty marks.. that'll give you some indication if its been overheated or coolant not maintained. & just over-all engine appearance.. is it covered in grease & oil from leaks?? sticks & debris wedged into the lower covers? Good luck w/ your purchase.

    If memory serves me it is a rebadged NH with a JD motor. They were pretty solid machines
