Continental Z134 Engine Thermostat |
|
May 22, 2013 - 12:41 PM - by MF2615Fred

My Dads' 1960 Ferguson TO35 tractor ran a 160 degree thermostat as OEM.
Many retailers are now are calling for a 180 degree unit.
I'm replacing the 50+ year old radiator and thinking the engine would run better, with no side effects, by running a little hotter and actually run better. 160 just sounds a little too cold in my mind.
I'm torn as to what direction to go with this. Most modern gasoline engines run 194, but of course, metallurgy has vastly improved in 50... [Read More]

How Lazy Can I Be?? |
|

Surprises me how cheap and lazy I can be. I needed to work up my mother's garden but with the walk behind rototiller I have, it wrecks havac on my arms and hands. I am looking for a rototiller to put behind the Massey but haven't found a cheap one yet so I made my own.
First I took a cat 1 drawbar and added a bar for the 3rd link. This will serve as a toolbar so I can add attachment easily.

12 v sprayer pump redo |
|
May 21, 2013 - 10:28 PM - by bordercollie

I have been spraying a lot the past years with the RTV and 12 v sprayer. It has handled many many miles of fence spraying etc. I noticed the other day that the spray wasn't going as far as it once did and then appeared to be getting really "tired"- hardly providing any coverage. I didn't want to spend the $ to get another pump so decided to tear it down and look inside. That is how I learn anyway- because it sure wasn't much good like it was. I tore it apart and this is what I... [Read More]

Air Conditioning Problems on '10 RTV 1100 |
|
May 19, 2013 - 11:27 PM - by DeereOrange

I am having problems with my air conditioning on my 2010 RTV 1100, just at the onset of heat, fun. My clutch on the compressor does not click on, although it is not frozen up as you can move it by hand (with the engine off obviously). Green light comes on as normal in dash button and fuses are fine. Don't know which relays to check though. 1"x1" relay above the steering wheel knuckle appears to be weeping some brown liquid but dunno if that is normal or not. Any other advice?

Mower recommendation for mowing 2 acres |
|
May 19, 2013 - 5:26 PM - by Doc
|
My son is in the market for a mower. He has two hilly acres to deal with along with a limited budget.
He has a Honda 300 Four Trax ATV and he was looking for something he could pull behind it to get the job done. Or a reasonable price on a rider. I think a ZTR with ATV knobby tires would do great for him, but they are rather expensive.
Any thoughts on what might get er done and not cost a fortune?
