Ok lets see those pets!
ebinmaine replied to Wheel Horse 3D's topic in non tractor related discussion
A month or three ago my mom decided it was time to have another pet. She's more of a cat person than dog. Her and my sister were patiently waiting and communicating with shelters in the area. About a week and a half ago my mom got her new to her cat. Minnie. Approximately 3 years old. Extremely sweet cuddly cat. And of course.... quickly taking over the house. My mom's spot in bed. Helping with laundry. And helping with making the bed. -

Some times you have to wonder about people
EB-80/8inPA replied to pfrederi's topic in non tractor related discussion
I’ve been running some old gas through a lawnmower at about 2:1 ratio of fresh to old (not super old, though, and stabilized). I’ll keep increasing the percentage of bad gas until it becomes a problem. Hasn’t yet. I don’t think a gallon or so in a full tank on the vehicle is gonna hurt either, as long as it’s not full of crud. -

I do the same thing. It's a 30 gallon tank so a gallon of questionable gas into 25 + gallons isn't going to hurt anything. I will only do about a gallon at a time. Of coarse you don't dump in any particles that would clog a filter or water at the bottom. It's better than dumping it on the ground. -
About the name, so the 73's are the no-name year for wheelhorse so I figured it needed a name. Well these are wheelhorses, so I thought what horse name or breed? Morgan horses are a reddish color and also used as multi purpose plow horses back in the day. Which is what this tractor is gonna be, a multi purpose plow horse 8 speed with hydraulics. This is going to be a continuation of my 73 wheelhorse for reference here is the original thread. It is not a C120 it is a 1973 14-8 and I am planning on returning it to a 14HP Kohler (12hp on it now is fairly worn) and add hydraulics this photo should give some idea of what is coming. This one will require some patience it's going to take some time. Also thanks to the Wisconsin boys @WHX?? @Achto for their help in making this possible.

In the good ole days we cleared brush from fence rows on mother-in-laws farm by putting bad gas in jugs then place them with several lit candles near. Standing way back and shooting at the jugs was a beautiful thing. -

When I wat to get rid of old gas I put it in a shallow pan and allow it to evaporate. Takes a little time but it is far better than sitting at the roadside awaiting a tow truck, besides, I am retired so watching bad gas evaporate gives me something to do. -

Last time I checked new filter for cars are expensive and some of them require a mechanic to replace them -

If there is enough good gas already in the tank nothing wrong with doing that. Got to get rid of it somehow. Done it many times. -

I have a thread in the engine section about an 856 that would die after 30-40 minutes. She is running okay again!!!! the problem resolved mostly to the owner using last years regular ethanol gas stored in old metal cans over the winter. He got a new plastic can and some ethanol free gas today and after we cleaned out the tank she ran great...I asked him what he did with the the year old funky gas...He put it in his van....???? -

I bought one, years ago, from Tractor Supply. It had enough mounting hole to fit

I'm really partial to C-160 Hydros. Unless you're going to turn it into a barn queen, and not use it to work i would encourage you to look for one of those. There's a member in central Massachusetts that had two beautifully restored C-160's for sale. If they're still available he was asking $1500.00
-
Yeah I have used some of the Rust-Oleum cans with the regular tips and they are worse then they used to be. I think ever since they switched some of the cans to the 5 tip pattern, which those are nice btw
-
The new Rustoleum RR cans I've seen have the adjustable 5 pattern tip... works great!
-
Looks great, the last couple cans of rusty regal has not been kind to me . The spray pattern has been too small and it's been hard not to tiger strip. I had a favorite spray tip that I used to swap out on new cans but must have threw it away and haven't had a good one since.

I'd be prone to run the K1 through again. Double flush is good. We do fully inserted. Capacity is two quarts. -
Just Rustoleum Regal red in a rattle can. Wet sanded the primer coat with 600 grit before this coat, will do the same a couple more times between coats with 800 grit. Just trying to make the paint thick enough to buff it after it cures. Given all the ridges on this hood, that will be a challenge. Last coat will be the same paint but mixed with hardener applied with a HVLP gun. That is if I can get my gun to spray right. It did not do well previously with Rustoleum.
