    John Deere 3020 hydralic oil level

    I just bought a 1968 3020 gas with a JD148 loader. Pulling the hydraulic dip stick it shows over filled by a half inch. Is that correct because of the need for extra hydraulic fluid to run the loader? Or should I fill it to the full mark. Do you check the level cold with the dip stick...

    John Deere 3020 rear tires

    I just bought a 1968 JD 3020.. The rear tires are the same size. 15.5 x 38. One tire is a used Goodyear the other is a new Firestone. Thinking the diameter might be different. Should I be concerned? Thanks

    1963 Farmall 560 very hard to start

    I rebuilt the carburetor on my 560, Now it is very hard to start when its cold. Starts and runs great when its warmed up. I suspect I might not have the choke butterfly installed correctly. There is an arrow on the butterfly which I installed pointing up. Please look at the attached photos...
