    L3800 Fuel Efficency question ???

    You're right, I normally get 5 gallons at a time as well and it will show "full", but if you take it to the pump and fill it until it is actually full, it takes quite some time for it to come off the full level on the gauge. Like I said before the tank is shaped so that most of the fuel is at...

    L3800 Fuel Efficency question ???

    A gallon an hour seems about right, I figured mine out last summer but I don't recall exactly what it was. One thing I found tricky is the way the tank is shaped. It holds a majority of the fuel on the top, I believe someone here said it is shaped like a fat 7,so the first half of the tank...

    Looking for Non-CDL Dump Truck Recommendations

    Nice, that's going to be a good looking set up. As far as the guys replying about CDL laws, doesn't it depend on the state you're in? I guess its a mute point as the add says its a non-CDL truck and I would assume you found out what is required or not required in your state. I'd be lying if...

    transmission options?

    Damn, that's a rough story. I'm on the HST side but I don't think it's all that difficult to operate a clutch. It's not like you're shifting from gear to gear while moving and that's not that difficult to learn either. I taught myself to shift without using the clutch back when I drove a...

    How do you adjust 3 point hitch control

    I comes down to who is actually right and who is wrong. There is a correct answer for the OPs question, which is the reason for this forum. I don't have this type of tractor and have not worked on one but I'm sure someone here has. Maybe someone with experience and not an just an opinion can...

    Help needed with Tractor Size decision

    That's a great looking setup. I don't have experience with the B or BX but my L3800 gets around pretty good in the woods, I have. If your getting a FEL take it off when mowing in or around the woods and that will make it that much easier to maneuver. Its super easy to take off and put back on...

    R4 Tires on lawn

    I never really understood why people care what other people do, especially something as trivial as mowing your yard. Not to mention having to sit down and type out his disapproval. Personally the R4 tires work very well for my yard!

    Front Suitcase Weights on L3800

    Don't take this the wrong way but I think you might be over thinking this, I certainly do the same thing. It does seem as though you have it worked out. 220# front grill guard 308# with 4-77lb suitcase weights 528# total You'll only have a 152# difference, if your tiller weighs 680# I would...
