    Battery powered fuel transfer pump?

    Oh yeah, I'm way younger. I'm only 70 years old! Just kidding. At 70 juggling those 5 gallon cans are a real challenge. Thanks for the recommendation!

    What kind of grease to use on swing bearing teeth?

    He compares the Lucas grease against.the cheapest grease at Walmart: Super Tech. The Lucas beats that one grease. That's not saying a lot for Lucas. Lucas is also a cheap grease. I'd consider Valvoline before Lucas.

    Things are looking up !

    I didn't say global inflation is down to 2.5%. It's a Worldwide inflation problem. I said U.S. inflation was 2.5%. Looks like it's 2.6% last month up from 2.4% in September. For quite some time the U.S. has had one of the best/lowest post-pandemic inflation rates in the world. Egg prices...

    Gasoline below $2.50/gallon for a couple of weeks now. Diesel below $3.20/gallon. Lots of prices coming down. Worldwide inflation down to about 2.5% in U.S.for a few months which is back to pre-pandemic normal. No bird flu issues so egg prices are better since layer populations are recovering...

    Which types of grease?

    At this point I plan to use good lithium NLGI 2 in one gun and good lithium moly EP in another. I'm going to rebuild my 50+ year old gun to keep some general purpose grease in it for non-Kubota odds and ends. 3 guns for 3 greases. Sounds like a plan. I'm considering using the brand of grease my...

    Which types of grease?

    Polyurea and synthetic based greases are well beyond the scope of my needs. Following the manual always, within reason, works so lithium based is the way I'll go. So back on topic, do the 3 types of greases I originally posted cover all of the greases listed in the manuals? Did I miss...

    New grease gun recommendations please.

    One of my 2 larger grease guns is over 50 years old and either needs to be repaired or replaced. It's a lever style and I want another pistol grip style. No battery style please. Is the Lincoln a good one? Any other recommendations?

    Which types of grease?

    Since the manuals call for a lithium based grease for most things but a molybdenum based EP grease for the front loader arms doesn't that mean I need at least 2 different types of grease? Forgive me for asking so many questions but I'm trying to learn from you experts here. Thanks. EDIT: I...

    Which types of grease?

    Sorry guys. I didn't word my question very well. I'm looking through the Kubota Operator's Manuals on my tractor and implements to find all of the types of grease I need and so far I've found the 3 I listed above. I'll list them below again. I'm wondering if I missed any that are needed to...

    Matching Kubota orange paint.

    Amazon is expensive on this paint also. Walmart has Rustoleum Farm & Implement paint for $6.98 a can but they didn't have the Kubota color when I looked, just JD green, JD yellow, IH red, and gloss black.

    Battery powered fuel transfer pump?

    Had enough! I heard about using a battery powered fuel pump to transfer diesel from a fuel container to the tractor fuel tank. Sign me up! Any recommendations? Brands? Sources? Thanks!
