    Snow blowing tractor is a no-start

    I’m with @SylvanLakeWH on this one. I use gas in a spray bottle with some two cycle oil in it. I only use either on diesel engines.

    Engine making a loud clangy sound while running

    Its unlikely to be any animals in there. I've spent the last year stripping it apart and blasting it clean. I'll try the compression test first. My gut tells me that its only one half of something, as I'm not hearing the sort of frequency that correlates to engine speed. I'll also check the tensioner. That's a nice easy thing to check.

    Only if you spray in a large amount quickly. All you need for testing is a quick spurt

    Oh no; Not that.

    Excellent Carson bit. Obviously all true and not the least bit fabricated or exaggerated. I tried fruitcake. Once. Probably 40 years ago.

    I would begin by removing the engine tins to see some cute little critters have set up housekeeping in there, an acorn in contact wit a flywheel can cause quite a racket. Onan valve seats have been known to be troublesome. A compression check as suggested by @c-series don will let you know if this is a probable cause.

    I use gas in a spray bottle. I've never understood using carb cleaner, as it kills my engines when I use it for routine cleaning...

    Pull each plug wire to see if the noise is from a particular cylinder.
  15. December twenty seventh is a day some dread, National Fruitcake Day! Indulge in variations of a classic cake from all over the world or compete to see who can fling this fruit-packed favorite the furthest. Fruitcakes— we’ve all seen them in the movies or grandma’s kitchen. The heavy and dark cake that looks like it went through seven stages of baking and sounds like a fist thumping against a wooden table when set down on a surface. Yet, there is a day made for it. That’s right, this day is called National Fruitcake Day and it’s made for the celebration of the cake that we all seem to find synonymous with a brick.

    I'd take the drive belt off then run it briefly to see if the noise goes away. Could be the drive belt tensioner banging.

    A simple compression check might be a good start.
  21. I am a believer.. About 7 hours after the picture it started snowing and continued as a mix of snow, ice pellets, freezing rain and sleet until 10pm. Temperature never got above 22

    I wouldn't figure on it being any other way at Jim's. Then add Trina and @Raven Patti lining em up for pics... Looks great!

    Hard to diagnose without hearing it in person. Hopefully its nothing serious but I wouldn't run it until you figured out what it is.

    Where'd ya gettum??

    Headlights yeah or nay

    Having used our machines on a regular basis in the dawn, dusk, and full dark I've grown to greatly prefer the higher mounting point. The light spread and distance is better. You get a better illumination over a raised plow or even a snowblower. Absolutely agreed. Definitely fitting in the theme.
