    1550 RPM

    A 77 engine was rated for 1600 RPM at PTO speed, the 1550 engine was rated for 2200 RPM at PTO speed. Pushing the 77 engine up to 2000 or 2200 RPM might need a different cam profile ( regrind? ) and a different distributor curve to still produce much enough torque at those RPMs. Odds are that...

    Motor Oil...

    You will always get a wide range of opinions on engine oil. If you want to pick and choose until you find an opinion that you agree with then this is a great place to ask your question. If the one year old 2025 is still under warranty I would follow the the manufacturer's recommendations to a...

    Boat Batteries

    Sometimes it is well worth having someone else do the hardest tasks, maybe pick the batteries you want and then let a marina or boat dealer change out the batteries for you?

    What Is The Best GAS Utility Tractor From The 1970’s - In 2026 ???

    If you already like M-F I would start by looking at those, and try to learn what to watch out for on those tractors ( common wear points and breakdowns, what repairs are NLA - No Longer Available. I like Deere but know the hydraulic systems on their utility tractors are more troublesome than...

    Boat Batteries

    For charging hard to reach batteries I will connect a pair of extension wires with a quick connector running to an easily accessible location for easy hookup to the charger without removing any covers, similar to what is used for trolling motors and solar panels. This works well on combines...

    Kohler 10HP K241 Pricing

    For a used rebuilt engine I would not ask more than half the price of a new one.

    Dead battery

    At least you know the battery did not freeze, that is really hard on batteries. At this point you do not have anything to loose by trying to save it. I would not leave a regular charger on overnight as it might boil the battery, some automatic chargers can do that too. I would put the charger...

    Buster Bar , and Ford 600 series I see for sale.

    I hope the 600 works out for you. The term Buster Bar left me a bit confused as I first thought of the harrow mounted on a moldboard plow before I remembered the DQ treat. Both do their job well. https://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/threads/moldboard-plow-buster-bar-question.1396115/

    Tractor Batteries

    A $10 VOM ( Volt-OHM meter ) can be used to hunt down a parasitic drain. Failing alternators, starters, radios are common drains.

    Not sure of your soil type and if you will be plowing an existing garden plot or will be plowing heavy sod to make a new deer plot. JD 5210 tractor specs are 52 engine HP, 46 HP PTO, probably around 40 HP at the drawbar, 4000 to 5000 pounds...
