  1. Today
  2. Hi All, This evening I pulled the hydro dipstick in order to check the transmission fluid level on my 1975 C-160. (the decal says to fill with 10-30 0il to full mark). Now I can’t for the life of me get the rubber grommet/gasket to slip down into the fill tube. The tube on this unit appears to be plastic or nylon so I’m afraid to get too rough with it. I did apply a light coat of oil to the rubber surface that slides down into the tube but that didn’t help. I’m thinking that the rubber has probably gotten hard with age. Are there replacements available? Or any suggestions? Thanks!y

    My 701 saga

    Checked the S/G this evening and it's pretty clean with smooth tight bearings. Brushes are decent. Wiped it out, put her back together and bench tested. Tomorrow is electrical day...

    Rain Water Pump for the Garden

    I have a used radon water system unit you can have, Pump (7 GPM) is controlled by water pressure just like your house. Turn on water as in pull the hose trigger and it will pump, shut off water as in let go of the trigger and it wiil build pressure and stop automatically. It'll work just like the water pressure in your house does. You're not too far from me in Leicester MA You can also use a 12v wash down water pump for boat applications. Pull the hose trigger and it will pump. Let off the the trigger and it will stop. Just not near as much volume of water pumped compared to the 110 v water pump

    What did you do today?

    Finally decided to remove a Birch tree that does nothing but drop crap all year round. It's about 70' tall. The only tool I had to do the job was a B&D 20v chainsaw with a 10" blade. I was thinking that it was going to take a few days with a small battery powered chainsaw, and 7 batteries. It ended up taking about 8 hours to drop it all the way. I couldn't cut the trunk up all the way though because my batteries all died.

    Late Spring Snowblower Score

    A lot less blast spray off the chute compared to a shortie so you won't look so much like a snowman afterwards. You can tweak those auger ends back into shape with a crescent wrench.

    I got questions Are the wheels you added to the snowblower height adjustable? If so, I need is there a "build thread" in the forum? My 16-Auto has an electric clutch. Does yours? If so, does it seem to engage the snowblower okay? I'm still trying to figure that tractor's special purpose.

    Well ... i don't know how this fits but 'Fish tells me this and I quote... "Maybe I should hammer a depression into the floorboard so the pedal will push down a little farther! " Quote My belly hurts ....
  13. Sad but true. Got up early this morning in hopes to wrap up an engine rebuild. Got to the point of installing the rings on the piston. Bottom ring went well, got to the second ring and of course it dropped in the top groove. Was carefully walking it around and.......snap. After the words of choice stopped I lit a thinking stick and went for about a 1/4 mile walk to calm down. Well as they say "Crap happens". I'm over it, new parts are on the way, hopefully next time will turn out better.

    What did you do today?

    Finally convinced my wife to get rid of her above ground pool. Used the C-141 to drag 5 of these 16" 6x6" beams out of my yard. I'm thinking they might make great posts for a slant roof shelter for my attachments

    Very nice!
  19. Wasn't looking for a snowblower, but happened to catch a good deal on a really clean tall chute nearby our office in Plymouth, MI. Should be a nice upgrade from my crusty old short chute. Just need to take it the @peter lena school of lubrication before I store it for the summer.

    Rain Water Pump for the Garden

    Hey gang. I’m hoping someone will know the answer to this question. I managed to score the perfect 500 gallon tank for collecting rainwater off of my garage’s metal roof for garden watering. I have an open shed area where the tank and pump will live but I’m not sure what type of pump would be best for this application. I’d like to set up irrigation eventually but for now I’m looking to just use a basic garden hose and sprayer. Obviously when I stop spraying the pump either needs to either be ok to run against a closed valve or automatically shut off when the hose becomes pressurized. Auto on/off seems like it may be a bad idea if I start and stop spraying a lot though. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    what kind of HP are they? I have got a few extra 400 Suburban parts laying around (hood,frame,frontaxle etc.) and was thinking of making some sort of custom out of them and thought a diesel would be interesting to use.
  23. Its the 2nd one I installed. 1st one was in a RJ. I never completed it & sold it at a local show to a guy from out of state. He offered me too much $$ to say no.
