    spark plugs

    o'reileys ordered some in for me, not much more than the other brands ($0.50 apiece). I've noticed they don't foul nearly as easy for one. I work with a couple guys who race vehicles with high end engines and they've told me the NGK are the only thing they'll run, supposedly better in every way...

    Danuser f7 manual

    Thanks for the tip Case nutty, the old timer I bought it from, who had it since new, said he quit using it when it started to leak oil, some 15-20 years ago. Then unit is about 30 years old he believes. Its never been updated to the grease seals, but I might pack some grease in there and see if...

    Danuser f7 manual

    I have to say I'm more than impressed by your company's customer service to keep an eye out on this forum and respond to this post even after I mentioned my reluctance to actually purchase anything from your company. I've shown this example to several coworkers and most of my family!

    Danuser f7 manual

    Anyone know of a resource of manuals for this posthole digger, price was right, almost new cutter teeth. I need replacement gaskets too, looks like ill have to make my own, updating the gearbox with the factory kit would more than double my investment in it. Thanks

    FORD 150 3 bottom plow, too big

    Thanks for the tip on the arm Bill, I squeezed some grease in it and tapped on it a little still wouldn't budge so I decided to revisit it. I have a tendency to get frustrated and foul things up worse if I don't step away every now and then, sounds like it might come to that anyways.I saw lift...

    FORD 150 3 bottom plow, too big

    The pos 10-1 dearborn 2 bottom plow I was using would make me spin when I hit rocks, but I had it buried all the way, didn't think anything of it til the old timer next door said something. I thought those 16 inch deep furrows looked good! I have sandy sometimes rocky soil, doesn't seen to pack...

    FORD 150 3 bottom plow, too big

    Thanks Bill and Sean for your input! I'd be pulling it with a 4cyl 4000, I'm in southeast Idaho. I've been using and old dearborn 2 bottom I got out of a scrap pile that needs serious work with low availability of parts. I'll probably just sell this plow, was hoping to make it work at that price...

    FORD 150 3 bottom plow, too big

    I picked up an older ford model 150 3 bottom plow at an auction for a hundred bucks and got home before I realized the three point hook ups are a size too big for my tractor. The plow is in great shape and very heavy, was thinking id have to drop a plow off it for my tractor to pull it, now the...

    Spark plug ?

    My Ford came home with the wrong plugs in it , id have to clean them every 15-20 hrs of use or they'd foul up too much, when they were clean or "new" it ran fine. Ive been running the ngk brand, its worth a couple bucks to me to know the plug is never the problem!

    6 cylinder swap hundred series concern

    I was hoping you would contribute Dean! I have just heard people say the 6000 was prone to failure, I have no 1st hand experience with it or the SOS, do you think the rearend/4speed tranny of a stock 4000 would hold up to an inline 215 or 223?

    6 cylinder swap hundred series concern

    Thanks for those tips! The engine is still running well enough to use, I have a parts tractor with a cracked block too. I guess I just figured if going through the hassle to rebuild one anyways why not upgrade? If if has to be governed down to 50 horsepower anyways I might just spend the couple...

    6 cylinder swap hundred series concern

    I have an early (4 cyl) 4000 with a tired engine, I've read about the concerns of putting an old inline 6 in front of a select-o-speed as examplified in the old 6000, but could a 4 or 5 speed tranny handle a 215 or 223? After loooking around locally the old inline 6's are a lot cheaper/ easier...
