The diesel is getting done

Depending on what paint you use, that dark primer should give your paint a sort of deep sheen. I’m excited for the results - Today

i hate wheel horse blowers

If they are too long to be able to tighten them, just remove the last cross chain so you can tighten them. -

seems loose? got the chains on and they see a bit loose? -
I know i bought some better heim joints also. those factory one are not real smooth. I fixed a couple cam plates and eccentrics on xi machines. to remove/repair the plate the hydro rear needs to be out of the machine. A good time to look and touch up a bit. I hit the eccentric with a dab of weld too.

You trust Pullstart with your money trees! He's probley already destroyed them with the bus, so I guess it's safe enough.

Buy as big of ultrasonic as you can afford. Mine came from Walmart online, not stocked in store. -
We have a 702, 854, 1257, and a 63 Lawn Ranger the was k181 swapped and we don't think there is enough room in between the metal cover piece and the filter for a foam element.

Unfortunately I’m unaware of anywhere near me that has ethanol free. I at least only run premium in all my small engines (yeah still has ethanol) but I also don’t let anything I have with an engine sit for really more than 2-3 weeks without running just to keep things moving. I’ve honestly never used an ultrasonic to clean a carb until now. I’ve always used super clean to soak everything then carb clean and compd air to blow everything out. I threw this into the ultrasonic at work during lunch and let it soak for 4 hours. Needless to say between the tractors and the snowmobiles i need to invest in one lol. -

Most likely dried ethanol crap. W e recommend using ethanol free gas. I love my ultrasonic. -

If the thrust bear feels ok, I still pop them out, lift the seal and degrease them on a new to me tractor. Many people lease the PTO brake off to make it easier to remove and install bents on the PTO. If their is no brake, no tools are require to remove/install belt on PTO -

Perfect thank you! I will potentially be running my 42” mower. I will mostly be using the Allis knock off to mow since that’s really all I can do with it. My 120 will eventually run a tiller and it runs the blower in the winter. This will get busted out every once in a while to mow just to scratch the WH itch. Otherwise it’s just for plowing snow or plowing a garden when I get a Brinly plow. -

I wished I was going was just kidding. Was actually in the double digits here today. -
Yes going for early 20th century. I'm going for three roof lines. The front "office" flat, the middle rounded with exposed brick, and the "addition" peaked roof with stucco type covering over brick and some brick exposed where stucco has fallen off. To color the brick, I have three colors of "brickish" colored paint. I dab a little on a small brush and pretty much paint each brick. Below is a picture I found on computer that gave me the inspiration of tracks between builds and the walkway. I'm planning on covered the sidewalk/loading dock. Haven't given much thought about the building across the tracks--maybe rusty metal. Haven't thought about a water tower. I've got one that is in memory of my brother on another part of the track. I used his initials as the name of the water district and his ham radio call sign for the telephone number. My layout has family members owning businesses or headstones in the graveyard. Behind these building along the back of the layout I've got an are about 10" wide by a couple of feet long that I'd like to make and industry with smoke stacks, pipes running between buildings but that will be another winter project for another year. I'm beginning to collect different items that I can use for the piping and smoke stacks--straws, packaging materials whatever I can find that may fit the diorama.

Depends upon what you got planned to run off PTO. Personally I very seldom, if any ever had to replace the long needle bearings. Mainly the seal and thrust bearing if it feels rough or sloppy. Seal fer sure. Clean & re-grease is the main thing. It's amazing how long they (thrust bearing) last but if your gonna mow hard yes replace it. Yes 80/90 in tranny. -
Gave the crane a test run today. Only lifted about 120lbs but it's a start. I hung as much of my own weight on it as I could and it was stable. I'll be lifting a K321 over the weekend. Hopefully it'll stay upright!

Nothing wrong with that. Some of my favorite tractors were exactly the same. -
That will be nice. The cam plates hold up better than the eccentrics do. Many of the ones I see have a groove worn in them. Just 1/16 is actually noticeable at the end of the travel on the hydro.

I've actually built three different versions. I can't figure out how to attach the link to my build threads. They are titled Hydro Pedal #1, #2, #3 if anyone wants to look up the build threads.
