    New trend, not real happt

    I've got a couple that have irked me, but maybe I'm just cranky about my money. First, my favorite restaurant serving food from south of the border (love it). I always got the special for $5.75 and would tip $1.50 for so so service. Computes to better than 20%. Paid with debit card. The first...

    1948 A Running Rough

    Check the float for sure, but if it's good, make sure the bowl vent is clear. I had an A do the same thing. IT would flood out badly and die, but as soon as you turned off the gas it ran fine. The vent gets packed with rust and soaking won't get it out. Need to drive out bowl vent baffles...

    630 exhaust gasket leak

    Check the head and manifold surfaces once apart. They are known to erode here when leaking for very long. Hopefully you caught it in time. If not, both head and manifold will need milled to clean up surfaces.

    Stumped - Tight crank

    Thanks everyone. Looks like it's off to the machine shop.

    Stumped - Tight crank

    That crossed my mind too but all the bearings are marked .010 and the crank wasn't tight in the old block. Good thinking and I will double check for sure.

    Stumped - Tight crank

    Deere guy here working on an 8N sidemount. My aunt got it hot and cracked the head and the block. She found me a used block and a rebuild kit and I got the sleeves in it. Valve train is in. Problem is with the crank. I can torque the front and middle main bearing caps and it's fine but as...

    What does this fit on?

    Not a 70 hood. They would have square cutouts for intake and exhaust. Probably off a 40.

    1952 60 governor

    If I understand you right I think it is working ok. You only get so much travel from the carb butterfly. If you work the speed control with the tractor off you can see it doesn't take much movement to open butterfly all the way. When running, anything over say 1/4 throttle just puts more spring...

    1952 60 governor

    What problem are you having? If the engine doesn't run away and keeps a steady rpm until overloaded, the governor is working. The speed control lever attaches to a flat spring. That spring balances with the fly weights (which is attached to governor arm) to get governor action. The only time...

    Stuck 60

    The 60C might have done it Tim. Took a Cat Challenger to get out. It's a swamp and once you break through the grass there is no bottom to it. Not sure on the mower Hugh, there's no tag. But it does a nice job mowing and will load the 60 up being over 7' wide.

    Stuck 60

    Three or four days without rain here in central Ohio. Guess it's still a little wet yet.

    John Deere A - blown head gasket? (video)

    Looks to me like it's down inside the frame rail. Looks pretty wet down there too. Early in the vid you can see smoke coming out the bottom. I never did see it coming from exhaust at all. Nate

    720 Dsl ES...Battery Decision! 2 or 4; Optima or Regular

    I don't think batteries wired in series sums the amps, just the volts. You will get the 24V sum of four 6 volt batteries but at the CCA of one of them. Parallel you would get the same volts as one battery but sum the amps. Not an electrical guru here but that's what I've always been told. Nate
