Should I buy it?
What was really wrong with the vehicles? I mean, there would be no reason to run a combustion gas test unless there was an underlying reason to do so. I've used the testers many times and 99.9% of the time no combustion gas is detected. When there IS a head gasket leak the fluid turns from blue...- NDIHC

Clocks or no clocks?
I think we have 6 in the house other than our phones. One doesn't work and maybe 2 are actually set to the proper time. I go by the clock on my phone. Haven't worn a watch in over 20 years. I was watching the British series "The Repair Shop". Man are the British obsessed with clocks! I think... -

NEED HELP, NEW PROJECT (NOT A TRACTOR) - 110 year old Barn Find Studebaker
Cool find for sure! One of my Grandpa's had a 1919 Studebaker 6 cylinder (I was always told he called it "the big six") touring car. I have the serial tag for it here somewhere and my parents have the title for it on display in a frame. I sent a picture of the serial tag to someone at a...- NDIHC

Heat and Age
I would see that with the guys I used to work with a lot too. Personally I don't go anywhere without my Yeti full of ice and water. I usually have an extra liter bottle of water with me and refill as I need. One of my sons does like I do, always has water with him. My other son, who should...- NDIHC

Bought a Weed Wacker
Wife bought a cheaper Craftsman string trimmer for me for Father's day, it may have been a hint that I should get out in the yard and trim! I would have bought a Milwaukee since I have all kinds of Milwaukee battery powered tools, but I have been pretty impressed with how long this thing will...- NDIHC

806 propane tractor
When I worked at the local Farmer's Union (Cenex) the LP service guy did that. He installed furnaces, water heaters, LP tanks and piping and most anything else that had to do with propane. I don't know if other LP service companies do that or not. We always had all of the valves and whatever...- NDIHC

Coats 40 40 help
I haven't used a Coats 4040 since 1997 so my memory may be a little fuzzy, but it seems to me that the top, wide shoe was just to push the sidewall of the tire up and the smaller shoe under it followed behind and was the shoe that actually pushed in between the bead and rim to break the bead. I... -

Anyone used one of these, Bolthero?
We had one similar to that for getting at bolts when doing alignments. Been so many years ago that I don't remember what vehicle it was intended for, but it was something from the 70s or early 80s. Something broke in it and the chain started slipping. -

Should I buy it?
No chance that I'd get mixed up in some deal where someone owns the tractor but I'm going to tear the engine down to see what might be wrong with it. If you start working on it you might as well own it, because that's what's going to happen. You may be friends but when you get into a deal like...- NDIHC

Heat and Age
Add me to the list of those who can't tolerate the heat and humidity. When I was in my teens through my 30s it didn't bother me. But now in my later 50s I can't handle it. If I'm outside working in the heat I'll start sweating profusely and will have a hard time catching my breath. I have to get...- NDIHC

Lawn mower (tractor) maintenance - Anybody else do this?
No way will I ever go back to a garden tractor for mowing. I used to use my 70, 125 and 126 Cub Cadets along with a couple of Cenex branded mowers. What used to take me a day and a half with them I can now do in a few hours with my zero turn. Even my dad, at nearly 91, switched to a z turn about... -

Steel buildings
We priced out a Morton building. They would handle everything. They would do the footings and building themselves, but use a subcontractor to do the slab. It was spendy to say the least. We ended up doing our own grading, footings and slab, then hired a local contractor to put up the building... -

Pressure brake bleeder
Pressure bleeder, we always had a Branick. Not cheap but will last a lifetime. As for ford pickup wheel cylinder, they can be bought new for under $10 or if you want to spend a little extra you can get some in the $20 range. At that price I'd spend about 10 minutes trying to get the bleeder out... -

Lawn mower (tractor) maintenance - Anybody else do this?
My main mower until I got a new one this year, was a 1969 IH Cub Cadet 125. Bought new by my grandmother. The 42 inch deck was removed, cleaned and blades replaced as needed. We have several sets of blades for it. There is no sign of excessive rust or rusting through at 57 years old. We have... -

Deck wash port on mowers
My dad has a Toro ZTR with the wash out port on the deck. I suppose the mower is about 5 years old. He's pushing 91 and doesn't want to lay under the deck scraping grass. He uses the wash out every time he mows and the deck has absolutely no build up on it. It looks like new yet. I have a Z2 Cub...
