Found on the 'net
Looks just like my tractor only mine is a fleetline so I have the louvered engine skirts and red rims instead of the green.- vsteel

not all Chain Lubes are created equal
I have the best luck with Silkolene Chain Lube. Stays on but doesn't seem to pick up much in the way of dirt. As stated modern O-ring chains are lubed from the inside but I want some oil on the outside to keep the sprocket contact areas lubed and I want to keep the O-rings wet so they don't... -

PTO Generator
A good load to use if you want something cheap is get an old electric oven. You can find them on craigslist for almost nothing, can pull a heavy load with load adjustment depending on how many burners/oven elements you turn on and helps if you need to bake something in the heat of the summer by... -

F-10 Farmhand loader
We always had the best luck with the steel cable with rope in the center, it would last better for us. The thinking was that the pure steel cable couldn't take some of the sharper bends. Depending on your F10 your mileage may very. You should be able to easily replace it, done it several...- vsteel

Best chainsaw - just for occasional use
I will have to see if i can dig it up. It was 20+ years ago. Didn't think it was that long ago until I started doing the math in my head. -

Generator frequency
As long as you are close (+- 10%) you will be fine. Today's electronics can take some shift in frequency. Because they are sourced for global consumption they are more flexible than they used to be. You have to watch total harmonic distortion (THD) for sensitive electronics. In your... -

Calf bloating
We put a needle in the side of the cow and pierce the stomach. We have put a stint (small tube that stays open) if the bloating is reoccurring but only had to do that on one animal and it tends to plug up. Lets the pressure right out. We have had issues with the hose if the bloating was in a...- vsteel

77 brake identification
Thank you for the help. I was hoping I was going to have disk as it seems that the bands are hard to find and mostly need to be resurfaced. Not that I can't do it, just would be easier if I didn't need the extra steps. The things we do for love. :)- vsteel

Why don't they make one???
I know this is just anecdotal but my father was a big fan of gas as well and really resisted diesel. In 1990 we bought a Heston windrower with a 15 foot draper head. It has a slant six engine (gas) for power. There was a factory update for the gas versions because you could get gas fumes...- vsteel

Best chainsaw - just for occasional use
Let me update my statement, Poulan USED to make the low end Stihl saws. Stihl has not always made their own low end saws, they were rebadged from other brands. Looks like they are making them now. But don't think they are any better. Both the Husky and Stihl name is made on their pro saws... -

77 brake identification
The right brake I think is getting worn and will need replaced. I have an Oliver 77 Row Crop with serial number 342443 which makes it a 1951. Which from what I read is a drum brake model. Though I have also read when you have a stamped steel cover with bolts around the edge (which I have)...- vsteel

windows 7 activation key
I am a Kubuntu fan myself. Think of it as Ubuntu only better. I would load Linux especially on a Lenovo laptop since they are known for their root kits and spy ware they install from the factory. Not to mention it just works these days. My house is Windows free and I have never looked... -

Synthedic oil vs the conventional oil
One thing of note, when an oil is specified by an OEM the engineering department might have said ABC oil is the best. But the marketing and legal departments might say "yea but we have a deal with XYZ oil company so we are going to call out their oil." Marketing and legal are the...- vsteel

Synthedic oil vs the conventional oil
The higher and higher standards for oil today have greatly reduced the gap for synthetic and conventional oil. Where most people get the advantage is cold weather starting because as mentioned it covers a larger temperature range. Other than that unless you are running a high performance...- vsteel
