    Small combine for rye

    I know that rye can be a problem to harvest but am wondering what combine you would recommend for low acerage ( 2 - 5). I usually see some Gleaner K2 packages for sale every year. Would these work? Phil

    Caseih 885 making green look good

    I sort of agree. My 211B and 630 don't give me any trouble. But then my IH 544 hydro is nice for what I use it. Maybe I need a 970 or a 930 that someone is doing a great restore on 😁. Phil

    Caseih 885 making green look good

    Spraying yesterday with this tractor and lost power steering. The hytran level is OK and the 3 pH raises OK. Where do I begin to look? I would not recommend this series tractors to anyone. Phil

    Caseih885 3ph adjustment

    When the 3ph arms are up as far as they move there's still about 5 inches of lift I can raise them by hand. If I bump the remote valve they will raise another 2 or so inches. I know there is some free up movement of the arms but I think 5 inches is a lot, or am I wrong? I could use a little...

    Combine for rye

    I don't have any experience with combines but am thinking of getting one in the future. I've been told that rye is difficult to combine. I want an older small so machine that could handle rye and oats mostly. How would a Case 660 with a 10' head work?

    Hot water heating system thermostat puzzle

    I think the wiring is OK, just as you describe it. Sometimes it works fine but other times it does not activate the valve motor unless I jump the thermostat terminals on the valve. I only have to hold the jumper on long enough for the valve motor to open and contact the swich for the pump and...

    Hot water heating system thermostat puzzle

    Yes it is an old thermostat. What I can not figure out is why when I bypass the thermostat until the valve is open I can leave it and it stays open until the thermostat opens. I am thinking some corrosion on contacts somewhere. Phil

    Hot water heating system thermostat puzzle

    I have a gas 3 zone hot water baseboard heat system in my home. The basement and 2nd floor systems work fine. I replaced the 1st floor zone control valve head because it would not close. Now it does not open and start the furnace every time the thermostat calls for heat. If I short out the...
