I have a four of these two yellow and two red. I love them, you won't spill another drop.

38 knots on a ship is really fast! That would be fun to experience.

Both can be hard on your back.

My backhoe is almost unusable at high RPMs. I find around 1600 the sweet spot for power and control.

Thank you for this advice and I am sorry for your troubles. If it is any benefit at all, at least by identifying the issue you have helped others avoid the same thing. I am one of those and raced out to lube the daylights out of that assembly.

For me a lot of it is feel and most of us can tell if the engine is lugging or the RPMs are too high for comfort. I simply try to stay in the zone where the engine feels like it is running perfectly and this varies by the job I am doing. I don't think you can write rules for every different...

It is easy. You don't need to take the filter off completely but if you are way overfilled you might have to start the tractor a couple of times.

Oh I though my L3800 was on my avatar but obviously it is not (it is now). I got probably the last L3800 in my area before they went to the newer models with all of the emissions stuff. The new ones were already out but there was one L3800 somewhere at another dealership and they shipped it to...

I am doing this by mistake. I get a complete engine flush. lol

I am defitely cahnging the oil but not the filter. The engine has run for about a minute with the gas engine oil in it. The amount of oil in the filter is insignificant to the 7L of oil I am putting in. that and since the only difference is that diesel has additives there seems to me to be no...

Yes but I doubt I will need a new one.

Yeah I researched this quite a bit after my frustrating screw up. I will change out the oil and consider my mistake an engine flush. For an extra few bucks and a little time at least I will have peace of mind. I try to live by the code that when I make a mistake it is best to deal with it...

This is very common issue due to that stupid sight glass. If it isn't bright white then it is over the glass. The fluid will make it look off white. You can put the tractor on a side hill or move the loader around to see if you can see the level but it has to be pretty close to the top of the...

I mistakenly used oil designed for gas engines when I did my oil change. Do I need to drain it and add the proper oil or could I get through the summer with thie oil? Also does anyone know if there are oil additives that would help this situation?

This is such a great story!

Re: Safety shields Freedom means freedom for everyone or it isn't freedom. If you disagree with homosexuality don't do it. What they do is their own business.

Thanks gyys. So would a motorcycle be the same? Or say a chainsaw?

I had been reading a thread about a guy who rolled his tractor on its side and starting it after it was righted may have caused serious engine damage. I didn't know this was an issue and prior to reading this if I had rolled my tractor on its side I would have tried starting it immediately...

Good! I get nervous when people agree with me. I know enough to know how much more there is to know. Disagreement is fine, essential even. Respectful disagreement is something that seems to be in decline.

With 3/4 of an acre you have a lot of options that wouldn't be feasible in a big field. You could make it like a golf green if you wanted. Sidecar offers a very practical solution. I would do that. No, now that I see the picture and think about it and if I am honest, I would probably just...
