    A/C Questions

    all old refrig gas must be out of the system. be best if it leaked out to make repairs and pull a good vacuum on the system for at least 15 min at 30" vac. check to see if it will hold a vac when its sealed for at least 5 min. then charge at 85% lbs rate of old gas volume, it will be real close...

    homemade sun shade / canopy

    Apparently you and I are in the same position. I asked the same question a few weeks back. there were several ideas for re-purposing items but, as you note were kind of lacking in "pretty." I was even offered a wonderful deal on a used take-off. with the shipping added from PA. i think it was...

    Tiller for a B7100HSD

    In short, yes, yes, and yes. I have a 7100 gear drive, a 48" KK, as with many new implements the pto shaft must be fit to the tractor, and yes weights helped greatly. shortening a shaft is no big deal. have a reciept saw or even a hacksaw? follow the instructions in your manual with the KK...

My shop press has a removable ram with a hand powered pump connected with a hose. the problem is the ram leaks from the seals around the rod. oils will leak past the seal when the ram is anywhere but completely collapsed. the pump...

    engine management

    Oh I remember "that" smell well. I thought the trucks also had a similar one but just a little different. My first car was a '66 caprice w/ 300hp 327 and a powerglide w. PS, PB, air, and factory tinted windows( that was a rare option). My first truck was a "66 C-10 292 4 speed that the chevy...

    MX5100 HST 4X4 safety switch question

    I now understand your screen name! As per my comment a forum is a difficult way to acknowledge one's skills, or intentions for that matter. With your background a tractor schematic would be like reading the sunday funny pages. Please understand where my intention were coming from. I don't know...

    I am up on blocks and scratching my head!

    I wish I had thought sooner to tell you but, if you drilled the hole at 7/8 a 1/2 in EMT conduit plug would pop in the hole to plug it. some thing used to plug holes in metal wiring boxes that have had a circuit removed from them. I suppose you could use a uni-bit to open it up an 1/8th if you...

    Can I to add a Tachometer to B-7100

    Well it works! the install is fairly simple. if you have ever changed a intake or timimg chain on a small block chevy you can do it in your sleep! I was surprised the drive points downward. just didn't think about it pointing some other way. just remember a 1/4" wrench will slip between the...
