    John Deere 730 gas

    I'm working on a john deere 730 gas. 2 years ago I parked the tractor because the water pump went out. I started it the other day and it runs terribly. I have to run the tractor with the choke half on. If I shut the choke off it sputters and backfires I have cleaned the carb 3 times. New points...

    Re: Legacy of the Family Barn

    Those old barns were built by tough men with hand saws and bare hands. They were built not to make things more convinient, but out of raw nessesity in order to preserve life for their farm and family. It breaks my heart to see them fall. I see many old family farms get dozed into a pile to make...

    Scoop?

    over ride clutch

    I mowed this spring first several times without ORC and thought I got along fine... Found an old one and tried it out. I would probably give 500 bucks for one if that is what they cost. Amazing how much easier it makes the work, not to mention the SAFETY issue. If I would have had one a week...

    roll over?

    Anyway to tell how much of pitch, or incline, or slope, or however you want to say it, a 50 8n can travel sideways on a pond dam before it will tip, roll over, squash me, or however you want to say it? Wheels set at 48" or so. Not seeing anything in 3729-50-m. Typical five foot mower. You think...
