I had a Crown Vic Police Inerceptor. It was a great vehicle. Got over 300k miles outta it. It got respect on the road while delivering over 20mpg. Tons of power- I towed my boat, snowmobiles, & camper with it. I've owned over 100 vehicles & gotta say it was probably one of my favorites.

There fixed that ...

Do you have a 520? Looks like the castle nuts on the steering tie rods.

Yes, our plow from '62 has a bolt that goes through with a castle nut originally, I swapped it our with a pin of the same size so blade could be removed easier.

Here she is: P.S. And yes that is my 87' Chevy and 656 in the background

When I met my wife in 1975, she was driving a 1973 Dodge Coronet 4 door that was an ex detective's car. My FIL got it at auction; it had 88K one driver miles on it and it had had only 1-1/2 years of service. We kept it until 1985. My kids cried when we sold it to buy the Buick. Oh, but then it was OK because they realized the Buick had AC and a nice velour interior!!

Smell like French fries when yer plowin'...

Yep the way Onans blow grass and dust in the air box. It is a pretty tight fit. Thoughts on using a cooking oil like Pam? I might have some of that K&N from Harley days Dan ... if I could remember where you put it

I used to try and save money on air filters, now I just change them. Some machines are, like the one my daughter uses, is running in very dusty condition, replace it more often. I have used a pre-spray from AFE, my son left a bottle here, just like Dan says it is nice to use. no fuss or muss. Usually I just go dry. All of my workers are big twins and they suck a lot of air. hey cut a hole, double stack and run 2 years! shaker hood

Me to as often as I can. I identify as an Udder Tugger. And I do not have bovines.

I do inspect nipples regularly. Only had the dash light come on one time on a 520H. I pulled the air filter and at first glance it appeared almost new. Putting a bright light inside showed it was rather clogged. That tells me that the oiled pre-filter was doing a super job and closer inspection of the air filter is necessary, the 20 HP engine uses enough gas without restricting the air intake. Maybe that is part of the reason so many claim that the Onans are gas hogs.

I'm not a slob and oil the prefilter and no mess. I also have a spare for each size. Take out the dirty, oil up a clean one and put it in. Clean up the old one and put it in the cabinet after it dries for the next time

Not as bad as oil filters ... Gotta pull the trigger on the right ones. Wadda you go to the Pullstart school of just ain't right?? Not a squeaky filter in the house ... No never supposed to blow out air filters except for maybe the shop vac. Guys to to blow out furnace air filters but all that does is loosen it up to get sucked through, Little known fact ... a filter catches smaller particles the dirtier it gets. The holes air must pass through get smaller and smaller till it won't pass air at all. That's when that dash light won't come on because the nipple broke off the back of the sensor ...

This would be a good opportunity to go with an electric pump.

I vote for the ATV/UTV tires. I put 25x900x12 Carlisle All Trails 2 on my 312-8.
