It figures. Spring came on a Tuesday. I worked that day.

At this point, I think summer's just a figment of someone's imagination.

Hello, from a fellow NoDakker. I live in Jamestown. I understand the mental evaluation we give ourselves halfway through winter. :whip:

Sounds like rusty parts from all the baptizin'!

I wouldn't drain any. Otherwise, you'll be adding/draining/adding.... to compensate for temp variations. If the level drops out of the sight glass, you'll see a nearly white color as the glass has a back to it that looks like aluminum. You're just looking into a little chamber where the glass is.

IF your 4020 has a diff lock, it would be on the floor board right about where your right foot would rest, were you sitting flat footed. If you use it, it will pop up as soon as the torque is off the two rear wheels. like in when you get on good ground and one wheel isn't trying to spin. I used...

Once that load was tied down (the first time with rope) it belonged to the trucker. His negligence caused your fence to be wrecked. The trucking company is liable for the damage. They are also obligated to buy the bales that were busted up in that mishap. They are also liable for any shortages...

I have about 9 or 10 die casts. Two different model D's. Model A, M, AR, B 630 LP, 5010, 820, etc. Also have a model 12 combine. I cut my teeth on a model A, B, and an AR, so I'm pretty sentimental about my Johnny Poppers! Been 34 years now since I turned ground with 'em.

Be patient with those Gibson guys. It's show season, so some of them are bound to be out and about, not checking their internet all too often. Just sit tight, someone will be sure to respond. Most of them will help you out to the ends of the earth. I've had a lot of luck with getting...

Which belt guard are you looking for? The one that mounts in front of the operator platform? I belong to a Gibson group on Yahoo groups. Those guys have parts galore for these ol' girls. You might have to cough up a bit for shipping, but, they'll treat you right on the purchase price.

Looks like 3 of us balance our blades. :hide:

I know how you feel, as well, Quincy. I join you in wishing your faithful friend, R.I.P. Whoever coined the phrase, "Dog is man's best friend" just HAD to have had dogs. No truer words were ever said.

For the most part, you're right, California. However in this case the wiper is a semi permanent band around one of the coils to which the wires are attached. This issue arose before and I merely swapped the coil around and used the unused end of the resister. I have checked the wiring for...

I have an old welder which has a 30V Onan genset powering it. There is a double-barreled variable resister that is in the excitation circuit. It seems that this resister has breathed its last. Does anyone know if I can substitute anything in its place? I'll take some pictures in a couple...

If I wasn't impressed by a product that some one else owns, it wouldn't even be in my consideration when I was looking to buy. JMHO. :hide:
