    Question on holiday etiquette

    American Range is well regarded in the commercial restaurant equipment world and they also make some very nice residential equipment. This range replaced a 35 year old Garland that we purchased when we built the house. The old Garland was really a true commercial range retrofit with spark...

    Question on holiday etiquette

    Oh trust me - its not going to waste. Taste test says its fine - just a little more caremelization than I normally get. No ice cream needed but a cup of strong, hot, black coffee helped with all the sugar. I have no self control when it comes to cake or pie. This was still so warm a plate was...

    Question on holiday etiquette

    You have to eat your mistakes and this one may require some ice cream help. The convection oven in the new American Range is cooking much faster than the old Garland. I am going to have to calibrate the thermostat because its REALLY fast. I thought I was safe with 45 minutes on the timer but I...

    SUDT replacement ?

    The last time I purchased the local dealer price for SUDT2 was $140 per pail. At that price there is no way to get $500 savings on 5 pails of anything. How the heck much are you paying for SUDT2? Dan

    SUDT replacement ?

    I am not afvocating for TRIAX but it is a niche blender based in Houston and blends their oils there. I first encountered them about 5 years ago when they started hawkIng their Full Synthetic THF as an equicvalebt to SUDT2. All you have to do is look ar their PDS to know otherwise. If you ask...

    SUDT replacement ?

    If you are using a name brand THF denying a warranty on that basis alone is going to be a heavy lift. There is a real good reason Kubota manuals recommend but do not require a Kubota branded engine or transmission lubricant. That said I am sure they could use it to make the claim process quite...

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    I think the problem is more the dealership people doing the install are clueless on the proper routing. That and no professionsl should ever deliver that mess and think its correct. Dan

    BX 23S Third-Function Question

    Just making sure. I am thinking that the kit may not be meant for a tractor with a hoe and they cobbled it into the backhoe lines anyway. Dan

    SUDT replacement ?

    Its a higher viscosity than both UDT and SUDT. Its not on par with SUDT2 and costs just about the same. If you really want an alternative to SUDT2 JD Hygard lo-vis (J20D) would probably be a better choice. Dan
