    Follow up on Poison Hemlock scare.

    I looked and looked on the www and all the info sources on the info in which I was interested.....mistaking a non poisonous Hemlock plant for a poisonous one just wasn't there to match what was growing in my farm. A neighbor came over yesterday, looking for some pasture for her horses and took...

    Guessing this is the right forum....question on a C-IH 895 PTO shaft leaking.

    Got my hay baled but had hydraulic fluid splattered all over the rear of the CIH 895. I have the service manuals for the 895 and the 395 and the parts list for the 395. Apparently the company used the same PTO parts for a series of their tractors. In looking for that repair the closest I get...

    Interesting Subject that may be of interest to you.

    I was watching a Clint Eastwood WWII film just now and they were using Half Track armored vehicles in the movie. No doubt a half track would go a long way in the European mud as compared to non directional rear rubber tires in tandem on "Duce and a Half" Army trucks. I recall there being an...

    Current Update on Poison Hemlock investigation.

    Today was the 8th day I had 2ea 5 blossom clusters planted after spraying the plants 3 or so weeks ago with Remedy and then Rodeo just because I was out spraying fence row (weeds) and decided to give them a blast too.....both active ingredients advertised as killing this weed. As I said...

    Poison Hemlock Question Again

    Surely this would be the place to learn of "real life" experiences with this noxious weed. I am soliciting my fellow posters to share some of your real life experiences with this nuisance plant. All I can glean off the www is "dooms day" reports. I have a problem with that in that if it was...

    Poison Hemlock

    White umbrella flower pattern, elemental nodules with 5 pedals, slick stems, pointed leaf (what there are of them) ends, purplish spots or stripes on stems near the ground. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, after 40+ years of owning/living on this farm, the toxic pest is everywhere.....almost...

    Ford 3000 with CAV Rotary pump....installing new dual filter and direction question.

    Sitting on the right hand side of the tractor and looking at the plumbing that has been there for decades I see the following: Fuel from the tank enters the left side of the filter assy on the inboard port and there is a direction arrow on the filter bracket top pointing in. On the same side of...

    Fertilizer Spreader

    A few years ago, I retired my Cosmos 500# conical 3 pt spreader of a decade of service at least, for a Faza 500# which I liked a lot better as it was lighter and easier for me to hook up as I work alone.....used it for several years and had no problems. Yesterday I started loading 33-0-0 and...

    Since Taxes were listed here this AM I have something for everybody.

    Have you done your taxes yet? If not you are in for a big surprise if you are over 65. Your tax liability will be significantly lower than last year. I finally got to the zero tax liability.

    Briggs and Stratton 18-20 HP V Twins

    I take them as a tool so that's why my question is here. I had an old, and I don't remember how old, but at least 10 years old 18 HP that I used for a lawn mower for a long time and then removed the deck and converted it to my Fire Ant sprayer and get around vehicle between the house and shop...

    5510 Series II

    Going to look at this tractor with loader tomorrow morning. Seller is selling his deceased dads 1989 with about 1500 hrs. He had the AC upgraded to 134a currently working which I told him that was a must for any kind of sale. Was barn kept and pictures of the cab interior look like new...

    More fun with the trains

    Since some folks liked the layouts, and we had a really nice rain yesterday, and I'm a home bound boy again today, lets have some more fun. I mentioned earlier that my fun was in the design, finding, and building especially the farm related aspects, and In building this, I was amazed at what I...

    Promised Train Pictures

    lets see if I can upload these files. I have 6 pictures of questionable quality but clear enough to get the idea. May take a couple of posting to get all 6 installed. Well there are 2 more but this is enough to give you an idea. I started with plastic models and filled up a wall, 5 shelves...

    Barnyard Engineering

    I was reading one of your replies and having seen your Avatar I finally got curious about what it says so I expanded the screen and what I saw brought a situation I once experienced......found it amusing but true: Back in the early '70's my family was growing and the Chevy Bel Air 4 door just...

    Diesel Tech

    Moving along with this 3910 problem I have a question: I am assuming that the 4.4x4.2 engine was designed with the earlier design of injectors. Apparently my Series II is an '88 model and probably has the upgraded injectors you mentioned due to its date of manufacture which we are currently...

    3910 vibrations

    Several years ago I bought a 3910 series II at an estate sale with 900ish hours. Other than the right brake squealing when you apply it, the only rub I have are engine vibrations starting at about 1600 and going through 1800 where they seem to subside somewhat before the pump stops the RPMs at...

    13x6 ZT tires desired that don't go flat between mowings yet are a soft ride.

    Really would like to find a soft riding tire that doesn't require air which leaks down between mowings. Most solid tires make no mention on how soft the material is and anything about driver comfort.

    Thinking seriously about buying a used Bush Hog (brand) shredder tomorrow.

    Seems to be a HD unit with everything looking large and dual tires in the rear. I hear that it takes 5 hp per foot of cutter for satisfactory service. I have a 50 and 65 HP that I asssume should do fine....the 65 for sure if it's heavy on the 3 pt lifting capacity and this in normal Bush Hog...

    Equipment auctions

    Been decades since I attended an auction, being there in person and bidding. Looking at a piece of equipment that is 300 miles distant which I can load on my trailer and bring home if I won. The www shows bids and a sale date. I assume you get registered and prove that you can pay for the...

    2016 JD 4052 Belt Replacement

    Neighbor has one and asked me to help him install a new fan belt he says is for his AC....he's a doctor so I will be doing it for him....but that's ok. Most tractors have one belt that drives the compressor, alternator, PS pump, and water pump. You loosen the alternator, install the new belt...
