Hello all,
Yellow fever has struck again. I drug home a nice but weathered 310 SE back in February. It's debatable as to whether it has more green mold and mossoak than yellow paint though.

I've posted a few questions about it here and there, but thought I would start posting my questions in the same thread so they don't get spread all over. I bought this machine back in February and have been trying to give it a little TLC while waiting for warmer digging weather.
It's a 1997 310 SE with 3920 hours. Bought from the original owner. Picked it up one cold February day. Didn't think we'd get it started. It had two dead batteries, poor connections and hadn't been started in 4 months prior. I recruited my dad to help me go look at it and we brought two battery boosters. The owners son pulled up with a jumper cables and we finally got it to fire off after about an hour of messing with it. Drove it about 5 miles back to my house. I would stop along the way to check for major fluid leaks.
Here's how she looked before I bought it.
