This is why Case IH has opted to go the DEF route for emmissions control. Still, they link the fly by wire engine management system with their new CVT transmission to maintain peak fuel economy and power under load. We have the good folks at EPA to thank for all of this. BTW, That new CVT...

If you get to it relatively soon: Drag it out and pressure wash the heck out of it, alternator/generator switches, evertyhing. Then soak every electrical component you can find with WD-40. While that's all drying, drain the tranny oil, engine oil and fuel. Fill tranny and engine with the...

Well... start with a good cleaning, 'cause it ain't ready to go back together yet from a cleanliness stand point. All that rust needs to be gone as well as what appears to be a couple chunks of something inside the clutch/pto splines. Then a very very light coat (more of a "film" really, put...

Sounds like your fuel pump was not properly "in time" when re-installed. The fuel pump on a diesel must be timed correctly just like a distributor on a gas engine. Otherwise, it ain't gonna run. Was the pump the only thing serviced, and did you have a WSM or other service manual to explain the...

Order/find a 10 spline pto shaft yoke for the correct size cross bearing on your universal and just switch out the yokes. An adapter may cause alignment/shaft length issues.

I'd check to make sure the glow plugs were operational as noted. I would also make sure that if there is a compression release it is not stuck in the release position as mentioned in the first reply post, even a little reduction in starting compression can cause a starting problem. Does it...

Ah well... most of the fun extermination methods are illegal. Some patience and a .22 rifle are probably the best alternative.

If there isn't a dealer near you any good NAPA store can usually cross reference a seal if you have the numbers. Sometimes the blade shaft output seals are a little harder to cross out because they're a shielded seal, input side is ususlly a standard seal. A quarter cup of automatic transission...

A picture would be helpful, but I'm thinking why not just take the top grease zerk out of the spindle shaft all together and drill and tap the PTO flange adapter for a zerk so that you can pump grease directly to the area that originally had the shaft zerk and nut. It'll take a little extra...

For an even cut with almost any deck start out on a flat concrete floor. Adjust the deck running height by whatever means yours has by measuring between the floor and the bottom of the mower KNIVES at the tips, not the deck edge. I like to measure with the knives parallel to the direction of...

My M4500 had a 6 ft mid-mount flail boom mower on it when I bought it. Worked pretty well, but was in the way for what I bought the tractor for. Sold it for a third of what I paid for the tractor & mower together.

I have a small 36 inch flail mower made by MC company, has its own 8 hp engine. It's pretty handy for rough stuff, tight places with high weeds etc. Will mow off anything that you can manage to drag it over.

Regular Roundup does not have any have any residual activity in the soil. You can plant a new "crop" in an area treated with roundup immediately after application. Crossbow is a selective broadleaf herbicide, bamboo is a grass, won't work (except maybe at insanely high rates, which would be "off...

University of Florida says Imazapyr (Arsenal) or Glyphosate (Roundup). But there are no products actually "labeled" for bamboo control in the US. Would be better from a "legal" herbicide application standpoint if there were at least a labeled target weed growing in with it.

I live in Mount Vernon, Ohio. Most all geologists would agree that from my front porch I could have once seen (assuming I could go back in time) the leading edge of at least three glacial advances (they happened to have terminated in this area of central Ohio). I have decided that I am rather...

I have a 54 inch tow behind that I pull offset behind my cub cadet, I mow just over 7 ft a pass. Set up so that there is about a 4-5 inch overlap in a straight line pull. Has it's own 16 hp Kohler opposed twin engine. Can mow a circle around a telephone pole with out stopping. Cut my mowing time...

I lost interest at "tier 4 engine with diesel particulate filter technology". But the rest of it is nice.

Amusing pics. I guess pick-up trucks are an American thing! The hog confinement issue is one for concern. People who have absolutely no idea what they're talking about demanding changes in the way we handle livestock production. BTW, in Ohio it was HSUS (Humane Scociety of the United States)...

If you can find someone with a sleeve puller set they'll have a few "pucks" of varying sizes. If they have the size you need is a good question. For a few bucks a local machine shop could likely make one from a chunk of scrap. Regarding the pre-sized sleeve and piston kits, again I don't know...

Your worst case scenario is the best option for a good repair. New liners/pistons/rings. However, you might be able to pull that liner back up into place and get by if you're carefull. Start by first pulling the pan and checking the liner positions at the bottom to make sure it wasn't a short...
