    Chains on Turfs?

    Have chains over the ag bars on my snowblower tractor. In the summer it does mounted tiller duty. I usually just leave them on, no problems.

    Was this worth 150 bucks?

    Yeah, probably. I just bought a blade at auction for $60. Its in good shape but not nearly that nice a unit. Now you need a bigger tractor!

    EGT Gauge, worth it?

    Not worth it. Doesn't tell you anything useful unless you have dyno tested numbers to compare against. Even then......

    Auger Trouble

    It is what it is! This is another case of a basically full size implement on a less than full size tractor. The only real solution if more clearance is absolutely necessary for that implement is a shorter auger. Here's why: 1. The arch yoke, for maximum lift, should be adjusted so that it is as...

    Gopher Blaster

    I've seen 'em (gopher blaster/gopher getter). Would LOVE to have one. Know folks that have them and yes they work reliably. Might check with your Dept of Wildlife, they are not actually legal to hunt ground hogs, wood chucks, gophers etc. with here in Ohio as they are not an "approved means"...

    L245dt exhaust fix or no???

    It won't hurt it. You're really only concerned with holding enough heat in the exhaust manifold that the valves do not cool too quickly upon shut down, 2 feet is probably more than enough to do that, heck the manifold itself might be enough. Your exhaust system was not "tuned" to improve intake...

    A word of caution about 3-point hitch implements

    There are tons of posts on this site regarding 3-point hitch implements, usually along the lines of; "won't lift high enough","how big a... ?" etc. etc. When the ISO standards for 3-point hitch systems were established they went something like this: Cat O - Up to 20 hp 5/8 inch pins top and...

    Weight and height for 3 point

    I believe if you take a look at them, the 3-point scissor lift accessories you're talking about are intended only for tractors with category II 3-point hitch. I was checking into one for my M4500 to move round bales, but it is only category I. Makes sense since they're really seriously...

    Cylinder Head Interchange --- 3 Cylinder Engines

    You should not try to install a head on a block where any of the casting holes would be potential sources of leakage. So if they overhang the cyl I would not go there. One little water leak and you'll be replacing a lot more than a head. You should get a new gasket and see what it covers. If the...

    Cylinder Head Interchange --- 3 Cylinder Engines

    Small holes like those are commonly referred to a steam holes and are common on cylinder heads on blocks where the castings for the cylinders are so close, or are even siamesed, so that the water flow through the larger gasket holes will not prevent the formation of small steam pockets in the...

    Pulling well pump

    I've had to pull mine a couple times, but it's on plastic and only 115 feet, so I've just hoisted it out by hand. But 46 is too old to be doing that any more so the next time I'm going to make a bracket to clamp to my casing that will hold a boat trailer winch. I plan to just wrap my pull rope...

    Counter Rotating Tilling and Green Manures

    Green manure or cover crops are a pain when tilling. Many will wrap terribly, cereal rye is particularly bad. I do have better luck with my small (36 inch) tractor mounted tiller getting such things tilled up when I "back" through on at least the first pass essentially using it like a counter...

    L3700SU, your cover is coated....

    That canopy looks real nice and the powder coat looks great. I've got a question about the powder coating though. I've been disappointed in every piece of steel equipment and/or implement that I've ever owned that was powder coated. Without exception every one has eventually rusted horribly...

    Rear blade.....takes practice

    I push the snow with the blade (backing up) rather than try to pull it, I also leave the blade in it's normal forward position while doing so. Yeah, you leave just a little snow that way, but you will also be able to float it on the drive and leave most your stone in place. The down side is...

    Car wreck

    Yeah, couple summers ago I watched a kid pull out from the High School and drive right into the back end of a car driven by a little old lady. He was on his phone, happened right in front of me. Folks really need to avoid using them while driving (and on the golf course, bugs the heck out of me!).

    smog pump for boost

    Well, it probably will not create enough air volume. The smog pumps (most of them) are just rotary vane pumps and will not move enough air to really create any boost on a small diesel. Belt driven "Blowers" generally come in two flavors "roots type" with inter meshing rotors and centrifugal...

    can not get my rear blade on to my bx 2200

    If his king cutter is like mine it doesn't have tabs. The blade frame is a piece of 1/2 by 3 (give or take) bar stock bent roughly in the shape of a triangle with the blade at the rear point. Problem is (for him anyway) is that the bends on the front corners have some radius to them (then a...
