    2002 Ford E350 hood stuck closed - HELP!

    Awful lot of money to waste on a Ford. A rag and match for the fuel tank would be enough money spent!!!😆🤣

    Need advice on gravel driveway repair

    Have the truck driver put on their spreader chains and tailgate spread the load as they dump. It will make it way, way way easier for you to grade out. A good truck driver will spread the load out quite well, particularly in an open, fairly level area like your driveway. I used to spread loads...

    New Cars/Trucks

    Unless the truck is actually what you want and there is a great deal on that particular truck, I would figure out what you want a new truck to be configured like and search for it. You can do a lot of searching yourself and the dealer can do more. Don’t settle for a truck that is kind of what...

    Grade 5 Shear Bolts

    A lot of shear bolts are NOT grooved. Each manufacturer determines what is best for their application.

    L5240 HST dying, fuel or HST?

    Pull the fuel line off going into the fuel filter assembly and observe the flow amount coming out from the tank. If a lot then no plug, if slow then you have something in the line or over the end of it. Also, the fitting going into the filter assembly is notorious for catching junk causing...

    Kubota B3030 Air Conditioner

    All you need to do is to put a shut off valve in 1 of the heater lines. Go to the local hardware store, buy a ball valve, 2 nipples that thread into it with hose barbs on the other end of them, 2 pipe clamps. Cut one of the lines with a utility knife and put the valve in. I used to do that with...

    JD 7130 engine failure at 4600 hours

    So when you refer to Deere telling you that you needed a new motor, were you actually told that by an official company representative or just your dealer? Your dealer is not John Deere, they are just an agent who has no authority, but they can overcharge you by making up repairs needed to be...

    Is this to good to be true?

    I would be very careful. There is no Caseihagwoodbury dealer listed on the official CaseIh website on their dealer locations. When you click on the link you provided, it goes to a website but seems to only be used tractors they have and at least one of the pictures is of a building with a...

    HST drain plug thread size?

    Adding a valve that both protrudes out from the bottom of the tractor and has a swing valve is living extremely dangerously. A good wack by a stick or something else sticking up can break it off or open the valve. By the time you know about it you have caused several thousand dollars damage to...
