    MM GB engine serial number

    Was looking through my tractor spec/info cards last night and discovered that the engine serial number of the rear GB on my double GB was 403LP-"X190". If I remember right, this would indicate a prototype or experimental engine, Am I right? These are 1955 models if I am correct, but LP tanks...

    Now look what followed me home 570 Customatic

    I know what you mean about wasps in the front end of the MM--almost got stung a few days ago when I was greasing M-5 that was only idle for a week--quick grabbed the wasp spray--shot and left for a while. I remember some 570 combines were in the yard at MM Hopkins in 1960. I think I have some...

    Watching the Kruse auction

    The whole things is MONEY driven. Know one guy who went down personally to look and came back and was going to "watch" on the net. He said MUCH of the stuff was "scrap iron" and not that much of the older stuff was worth much. Add to that the COST TO GET IN (I never have and never will PAY to...

    Later Model MM values

    Thanks much--so not knowing if they will run, even if motor turns free they should be less than $1000, even in very good shape externally!?

    Later Model MM values

    Anyone got an idea about the value of a GVI diesel stuck and a G705 Diesel not stuck, but don"t know if it will run--the tin and visual condition of both is very good. Thanks

    Diesel or LP

    Useing a "bleeder" on the vapor valve MAKES filling the LP tank over twice as fast and is far less expensive than a pump! I have been using this means for over 30 yrs and works great!
