    Daily Chuckle

    The first picture, a rather novel modification of a grease gun. I have no ideas as to its function. The cable appears to be a speedometer cable adapted for some unknown purpose. Second picture is an excellent use of the smaller trailer hitch receiver to be a spare tire holder. I really must...

    Air pressure in loaded tires

    I have found it best to get the tire in the air first, and then to put a little air into the tire to clear the ballast out of the valve stem, and then check the pressure of the tire.

    Replacement Wireless Router - Netgear

    The router has the password on the backside, and if you get into trouble, they have an 800 number to call for assistance. You can also call your IP provider and ask if they will help you. It isn't that difficult if you lay off the sauce for a day... LOL .. Happy New Year from the old codger.

    Value of used attachments when buying a used tractor?

    Figure out what it will cost to buy them new and then make your decision. If they are in good working condition, then in all probability it is a good deal.

    I asked the same question in a private message because I didn't think that the whole world needed to know the answer. I guess that I was wrong. He replied to me NO, and now everyone knows that it isn't available.

    BX snow removal suggestions.

    I used to do that with my plow when I lived on a state highway. I would push the snow up onto my lawn. My downstream neighbor called complaining that the state plow was putting "my snow" in her driveway. Didn't matter that I was also plowing out her driveway on the street. The next storm, I...

    Coolant in Fuel??

    My first Benz was in 1968, and it didn't like cold weather. My last diesel Benz was a 1978 350SDL and it also didn't like extremely cold weather. By this time, Mercedes had developed a fuel heater that was piped into the heater line and had an outer wrapping of steel tubing that the fuel...

    Kubota Quality

    I would discuss it with the selling dealer first. Have you been checking the engine oil level frequently since you bought the machine? If not, it might have been overfilled with engine oil when you took delivery. I would pull the dipstick and see if there is a smell of diesel fuel to the...
