    I'm pretty sure the pressure relief valve on my loader backhoe is failing. Its not adjustable, just looks like a retaining clip across the end. How do I rebuild or where do i get new. Thanks SHaun

    Lots of people wondering about distillate. When I was a kid on the farm we used #1 fuel oil (home heating oil)in our John Deere "A" & "D". Warm it up on gasoline then switch it over to fuel oil. Not diesel but #1 home heating oil. Ran great. My brother still likes to fill up with it when he...

    John Deere 5203 IPTO Slipping

    A friend has a JD 5203, has about 500 hours, and the pto clutch is slipping. It would not even make 1/2 a roll on a small Hesston 530 baler before it quit turning the pto shaft. Switched baler to another tractor, worked fine with no problem. Was wondering how the pto clutch was designed and...

    I had a customer which ordered a cabinet like a closet which was suppose to have recessed lighting set up on a motion sensor switch with a dimmer. Then they changed their mind and wanted to go with florescent lighting so I took the recessed light fixtures back. I knew florescent lights didn't...

    Mixing Hydraulic Fluids

    I recently bought a Series 1 (SN 17???) D17. Today I put an Allis model 170 loader on it [with trip bucket], which had come off another D17. I hooked the loader's hydraulic hose to the rear-facing transport connection under the seat, like the previous owner had. When I raise the loader, it...

    What is it #2

    More things from my grandfather's stuff. These things are made of steel, and again, there is a whole handful of them. At first I thought maybe some kind of wedge to secure a hammer head, but there is no taper to it. Maybe some kind of corrugated nail, driven with a special tool?
