6 pointsI remember where I was and the feeling of dismay that such an attack could happen in the land of the free. I will spare you the details of the long day that followed at work but it is etched in my memory. The magnitude of this single coordinated attack on the United States of America makes it stand out but if we are not paying attention to the quantitative impact of the crime, creeping socialism, deteriorating morals, and injustice that is so pervasive throughout our society we are experiencing another 9-11 attack every month, it is just spread out over the entire country. We have an election coming up in a few weeks. I hope everyone will get to know the candidates and choose wisely. Local school board members are the key to our future as a free society, get to know their views on a variety of subjects. Local justice officials are also a key component of protecting our freedom. Get to know their stance on dealing with crime.

4 pointsWelcome! Got a model number for the plow? That would allow you to search in the Manuals - Implements section for the Exploded diagram & parts list. Is it a simple 1/2" diameter steel rod with a 90 degree bend at each end?? If so many of us (myself included) make a better version using a straight piece of 1/2" round stock and thread the ends 1/2-20 for a pair of Heim Joints. MUCH smoother feel, no slop.

2 pointsI walk around with my head towards the ground in the back barn… it’s like a magic parts shed most times. We had a different project lined up with a K1500, and we planned on a 5 speed swap. We have the flywheel, clutch, pedal assembly, driveshaft, crossmember, all that. But it was for a K1500. The bolt up stuff underneath is one thing. The under dash stuff is another.

2 pointsIt should treat you fine. I have a neighbor who is a cub guy. Has a 1050 and a 1650. Both need major work. I've tried to get him to take one of my Wheel Horse's, but the Cubs are easier for him to get on and off of.

2 pointsKilling time to go to the last tractor show so finished up a Onan I got from @Blasterdad at Pullstart's plow day. Should have left the heat shield off 'till after retorque heads run. I have high hopes for this being a decent shelf motor for the 520s. Hope you like the color changes. Just something different.

2 pointsWhen we moved a few years ago & significantly downsized. Had a 4 bedroom 3700sq/ft ranch w/full basement. Now in a 1000sq/ft ranch on a slab- no regrets! I promised her since we really dont have room for her hobbies/crafts etc that I'd have a she shed built. Great decision. Ran electric & is insulated w/heat so she can use it all year.

1 pointLooks great. A couple things...be careful with the penetrol on the decals. Usually fine but I've found that some will lift around the edges. That's very few that I've had and I use it quite a bit. It's a really good treatment for patina so just test it before you give it a full bath. As far as the flush is concerned, you might want to go ahead and see where you can source oil seals. It's not uncommon for old, dry seals to leak after a flush. They're available.

1 pointHello Everyone, I redid my procedure and maybe being tired last night and with my eyesight not being what it once was everything turned out fine. Thanks for all your input. I did see those pushrods mentioned by Paul on EBAY if anyone ever needs them. Price points are all over the place. I am getting a little bit closer to remounting the engine on the frame. I redid the rings, re-honed the cylinders, cleaned the valves, and brought them up to standard clearances. I am hoping she will start up in a couple of weeks. Regards, Bob

1 pointIt is a simple hairpin put in a hole to retain the rear of the lift tube. Now imagine doing that in the dirt or snow laying under the tractor with the parts too close to focus your eyes on them.

1 pointIMO, once it's running those settings have no value. Find the center between rich and lean and then do final adjustments for acceleration and under load. When those are optimal or just a bit rich, set the idle speed and high RPM.

1 pointGetting ready to mount tires. I did this yesterday but the internet went down due to heavy rain so I could not post pics. Rears are Carlisle turfmasters that I got a great deal on last winter (I don't remember who from). This is the tool I use for all of my Lawn and garden tractor tire mounting and demounting. Rear wheel mounted on tool. New TR413 valve stem ready to be installed. Tool used to pull valve stem into position after giving it a light lube with dish soap. Valve stem installed. Tire bead and outer edge of wheel was lubed with dish soap then the tire was pushed on. These tires seem just slightly small so it is quite a push to get it on. Next step is to put a couple of clamps on the tire to reduce it's width so it is held down into the smaller diameter portion of the wheel for the tire installation to go easier. The tire bead, top edge of the wheel, and the tire installation tool are lubed with dish soap and the tire is popped into place. Tires aired up to 20 PSI to fully seat onto the beads Tires sprayed with Snoop to check for leaks. None found. Front wheel sat on tool. Front wheel clamped into place then the tire was lubed and popped into place. Again, harder than it sounds but it went on. Tube installed and the valve stem tool is screwed on so I don't accidentally knock it down installing the tire. Front tire installed using the same technique as for the rear with the clamps and lube (I know that sounds bad). All four assemblies taken outside and washed to clean up the tires and get rid of any dish soap.

1 pointThe hard part is getting the missing part round. Take a lot of hand sanding. Just a little more PC7 in 2 places. Dave

1 pointMost likely sediment bowl is leaking. Wipe any gas away and use a bright flash light to try and pinpoint the leak. Once you find it we'll suggest repair/eplace as required and replace the fuel line.
