    Antifreeze or Anti-corrosive additive?

    I use distilled water and antifreeze to below the lowest temp we see here. Antifreeze also includes lubricants for water pumps, buffers, and corrosion inhibitors to protect the whole cooling system. Or you can just buy the same in a 50/50 premix....James

    Question on Farmall 300

    I pull an 8' 370 IH with a IHC 454 utility tractor. Traction is the limit. I cut it down from a 12'. I pulled a 10' with my '52 H with a super kit, same as a 300 engine. Lot more traction. 13' would be a big load but you can carry part of the weight on the wheels if it wants to dig in too much...

    made a sifter

    I built one with 1/4" screen on the bottom of a 4" deep box and a frame that sits on my wheelbarrow with little blocks so that it will not move when I shake it back and forth. The frame has a wood track so the box can be pulled back and forth to sift rocks out of dirt. I also have a box with...

    Cultipacker wheels

    What brand?. I ran 2 different JD 950's, the new one was 1" bigger than the old one. This was the V style. We ran the old one on all 1000 acres of wheat planting in the fall for 11 years + a lot of other acres each year. Some double cropped. I have seen some brands that looked plumb wore out...

    Oil for IH 460

    I run Cub Cadet oil in my 454 now, because I run it hard. It only takes a gallon to a change. I keep a quart just in case it uses a little, sometimes it does, most of the time it doesn't use any between changes. I run it 1 year (up to 150 hrs) but usually no more than 100 hrs and change it in...

    Show and tell

    Wood can be seasoned and still have high water content from condensation. Here we stack in ricks so the wind can blow threw or stack vertical like a teepee until fall, when we put what we need that winter, in a woodshed. Cover the rest until the rain quits in the spring....James

    4040 John Deere won’t go in park

    Change the HYD filter again, do not contaminate new fluid. Unlike many hydraulic fluids John Deere Hy-Gard can handle water contamination without sludge forming. This prevents clogged filters and hydraulic system malfunction. Unlike IHC Hytran and others that absorbs water....James

    A few old gas cans

    I like the old 2 gallon round galvanized oil cans with the short spout. I use to carry one and a 1 gallon one for bar oil, in the woods when cutting timber. No need for a plastic spout that always has a problem or breaks. I am small and pretty weak, I can't lift and hold a 5 gallon can and a...

    What did you lose today?

    I don't have a cell phone, for good reason. I have a place for what little I do have so I can find it. My Chromebook sets right on the little table so it can charge when I'm not using it so I can find it when I want it. My car keys set on a peg right inside the front door and get put there right...

    Disc size for 4020

    I pull an 8' 370 with a 454 IH gas, just right. I pulled a 12' 370 with a 3020 and 4000 JD diesel. I pulled a 13'6" model 470 IH disk with a 706 Farmall diesel, first pass in old sod pasture. I pulled a 16' IHC 370 wing disk over wheat stubble with my 4020, 12' with the wings up was good for 1st...

    International 990 Swather

    Mine had a steel and a rubber roll. I have seen the spiral metal strips of metal that made up the spiral, come loose and make a mess of the roll but they could be welded back on. I had the rubber roll break in the middle when it ingested a wood fence post that was laying on the ground, just...

    730 case yes or no.

    Here, that would be a steal with 2 yr old tires. Have someone press new ends on a new piece of hose instead of trying to source the stock ones. Take the old one with you when you have it made, to match the ends....James
