RCW, you need a little more filth on that machine!!

Built ready for an easyout if broken. No need to drill a hole to start it.

Why red cans? Are you a non-conformist? ;) ;)

A few years back I bought a Cat crawler that had set for years. When the fuel cap was removed there was a strong smell of varnish. After going through the basics of checking fluids we pulled that machine with a tractor and it fired off. We let it idle for a long time before we shut it down...

Drilling a new hole for a new valve stem and any welding of a protective shield would require removal of the tire from the wheel. Even at the age you mention it would be much easier to get the proper air in the tire with the wheel mounted just as it is. Perhaps someone around to help you get...

If you want to get a picture of why society is such that people are so hypnotized they can walk into a train, read how a boy who became a pro football player was brought up. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/nick-chubb-nfl-football-cleveland-browns

Kind of like wire rope!

For some of you guys bragging how old your are...... ;) ;) One elderly man said to another, “I’m so old that my blood type has been discontinued.” The other replied, “Yes, but you can’t let aging get you down. It’s too hard to get back up!”

Kind of nice to come to a forum for a specific problem and get the doctor to detail how to do the surgery! When Whitetiger says something, I listen!!!

Your prejudice is showing! ;) I've been buying from Coleman Equipment before they were Coleman Equipment. Scott O'Dell was who I bought my first Kubota from and they are now one of the three locations Coleman Equipment owns/operate. Coleman's Bonner Springs store is within 30 miles of this...

If half of his property is wet and squishy at time, I'd suggest 4x4.

To actually clean the radiator to it's full potential without removing and rodding is to get the big stuff off with air or water, then spray with something to set and soften the built up dirt. like purple power or something similar. Let the cleaner set for 5-10 minutes then wash it off. Then...

Do you have any clues from previous owner? Did you purchase from an auction< no history? First thing check fluid and belt, then get work shop manual and follow it's problem solving directions.

I figured it had something to do with south African monkeys! ;)

You got that right! Who in their right mind would open a fill plug with all that sand laying everywhere? When Joe acknowledges every post no matter what the content is indicates he wants everyone to keep participating.

That reminds me of a friend of my wife. She's deathly afraid of mice. She got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and there was a mouse on the back of the stool. She hollered, screamed, danced and yelled for her husband, then got on the phone to call the exterminator (in the...
