    M7040 - AC works but blows hot after a while

    You mentioned that there was no oil in the compressor. It is possible that the oil migrated to the condenser or evap. If you have excess oil in the system, it could affect performance as it it like an extra layer of insulation inside the tubes.

    1959 Electric Tractor

    I wonder if this tractor ever made it into production. I don't think there was a hydrogen infrastructure for farmers in 1959.

    2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 Fuel Mileage

    I worked in the auto industry, mainly on cars and SUVs. There was a trend of dropping the engine size and adding a turbo to increase FE. In most cases, FE got significantly worse. My company started to offer a 6 cylinder as a base grade in a full size van. You had to upgrade to get the existing...

    Memorial Day … Not just for a party-weekend or a day off from school…

    I need to get some decorations and American flags. My Dad was in WW2, he had 2 brothers in Korea. My great uncle was in WW1 and my great grandfather was in the Civil War.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Those Sumac looking trees are likely Tree of Heaven. They are easier to kill than the pear trees. We don't have the spotted lanternfly yet, but I understand they love the Tree of Heaven. They are both from the same area in China.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    The Bradford Pear saplings were thick in this area. Normally I spot spray them. Will spray in other areas where they are not so thick. I cut the larger trees this spring when they were flowering. Don't plant these trees. They are still legal in most states.

    Battery Fires

    My brother had a not so sharp guy living with him for a while. He worked as a carpenter. Apparently, he charged his drill behind an antique couch that my parents had restored about 30 years ago. The couch cushions were restuffed with duck feathers. Anyway, it caught fire. He and my brother...

    New lx3520 RATTLING

    What engine RPM is it worst at? It might be easier to locate if engine is running at the worst case RPM. Can you reproduce it with just the engine running and not the bush hog? Metallic or plastic part noise?

    Thank you CA

    The definition of inflation per Econ 101 is too much money chasing too few goods. When the government prints too much money to cover excessive spending, in our case quantitative easing, we should expect inflation. There are several historical examples including post WW1 Germany, Zimbabwe, and...

    Brushtox - how long till ya mow it down?

    I use Brushtox. A couple weeks after spraying should be more than enough. Question: What mixing rate do you use? The directions are not very clear. I am using about 1 oz/gallon and get decent results.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    M7060 AC question

    <22 psi - compressor shuts off due to low pressure (freeze protection) >28 psi - compressor kicks back on > 455 psi - compressor shuts off due to high discharge pressure (compressor protection & prevents blowing the charge) What is the cycling rate? ~3 cycles per minute when in fresh air intake...

    M7060 AC question

    If those pressures are accurate, it sounds like the pressure switch setpoints have drifted. What is the blower speed setting? High blower speeds would cause the cycling frequency to be less.

    Whos into home grown

    They are, your eyes are good. This was the most level location in the back yard. I wound up with an oblong garden. It's hard to see in the picture, but I used the Kubota to create a berm and a ditch to keep the rain water from flowing downhill through the garden.
