    Torch near a gas cap,any ideas?

    Old has the right answer, just fill the tank full and throw a wet rag over the cap. No fumes, no problem.

    M steering gear? add grease or 90 oil?

    The seals are leaking because the two bushings are worn. You can get everything that is needed at a C/IH dealer. They will be over $400.

    How to pay too much, for oil filters

    Get on line and find the Baldwin filter numbers you need and go to a large truck repair shop and they can purchase them reasonably priced and you will have good filters.

    Looking back on interest rates!!!

    First home we bought in 1963, paid $7600 with $3000 down, don't remember interest rate. In 1974 we paid 17.5% interest on operating loan, put us out of livestock business. Had auction and sold all equipment.

    Does Anyone Else Have This Problem?

    I have had right hand carpal tunnel surgery 2 1/2 years ago and left hand 8 months ago with different surgeons and I can still lift very hot dishes out of microwave without hot pads.

    70s 80s Diesel pickups

    Had a '82 Buick with 5.7 diesel, if it would not have been for the calls to Lansing to get warranty from local dealer, it would have caused me to go broke!
