    Long 350 won’t start

    I'm going to second what red MN said. Both posts. I would go with automatic transmission fluid. When you mentioned vinegar I thought yeah that might be a novel way to remove any rust but Red makes a good point. Tranny fluid tends to really infiltrate every crack and crevice (ever get any in your...

    Concerts - not Woodstock

    I've been to more concerts than I can remember. Not bragging, just saying. It would be easier to list the 70s & 80s rock bands I didn't see than the ones I did. One artist I haven't seen is Willie. Maybe some day, but the cost of tickets etc. these days it's doubtful. One memorable one was...

    Concerts - not Woodstock

    Yeah Texas law enforcement liked to go for the low hanging fruit. David Crosby could tell you stories about that. May he RIP.

    8N bogs down

    So have you given any thought to what your next tractor will be?

    8N bogs down

    I'd definitely do what red MN said. He's one of the more reliable sources on here (unlike myself). I forgot about the screen in the carb elbow. There is also a screen in the sediment bowl but since you replaced it it seems unlikely. However if the tank was full of gunk it could have easily...

    8N bogs down

    If it's running okay at idle it doesn't sound like stuck rings but probably doesn't hurt to run it. It's the heating and cooling heating and cooling that frees them up. Sitting level and idling giving it throttle it should raise engine RPM smoothly. Have you cleaned the gas tank? sludge rolling...

    How Are Your Reflexes

    I can relate, I have to lift my right leg with my hand to climb over the transmission and shifter on all my tractors. I can kind of manage to get on the clutch on the MF 165 with my left leg, but it I find it easier if I give an assist with my hand. I find I try to anticipate things more than...

    Day from h3ll

    SweetFeet thanks for chiming in. Wife got me a bottle of nutrient tablets. Not sure how good they are -not any NPK in them. I have a lab draw Friday so I'll wait to see what that comes back as before I start on them. Next week I have some procedures I get to participate in so I'll have ample...

    Day from h3ll

    Thanks showcrop, I'm probably low on that too. I had a week or two where I was dead beat and in a funk, couldn't get motivated; I started on some electrolytes and was feeling better in a day or two. They said my blood serum potassium was at the max but in serum measurements don't mean much when...

    Day from h3ll

    I've been getting better health wise, or I like to think I am. Did some trail maintenance yesterday. Not much, a couple hours with the chainsaw and weed whip. Managed to whoop my own arse. Muscle cramps from head to toe. Hands so cramped I had to pry the fingers open to stop the pain and it...
