    My Husqvarna 55 rancher chain saw quit

    I was cutting wood today, it was a rather hot day. My saw quit, low compression. On a two stroke that is not good. The heat scuffed up the piston, and stuck the one ring to the piston. I had another cylinder and piston. I have the saw running again. Now I am wondering if I add a little more...

    JD 490E

    Sold my broken 490E excavator. Man that bought it did some clearing for me. He bought it for parts. Him and his crew made it look easy. https://youtu.be/enVjFcHRv_E?list=PLpGo4SrzXBNOFLfxhuZuA4GYsioJOxp3j

    730 loader on 3100 w/ backhoe hydraulic valve rebuild

    I recently picked up a pretty worn out 1974 3000 series tractor with a 730 loader and a 713 backhoe. The backhoe works about as expected with most of bushings needing to be replaced this winter while I am also replacing the rings in the engine (addicted to ether). Most of the grease fittings are...
