Well hopefully the weather holds out since you just about finished your goal of having the tractor done by Pullstart's plow day

Trial by fire. Just started for the first time on Thursday and put it in the dirt today. 

I got the charging system wiring done, the carb nipple was leaking fuel got that fixed. 

It still needs tuning more, I may end up putting bushings on the throttle shaft of the carb I thought it was tight enough but I think that might be part of what is giving me some trouble. 

But it did plow really good! Still some small stuff to get sorted out. But traction is good, the front stays planted.

With that much weight up front, I'd say you're doing something wrong if it didn't! :D

 

Beautiful machine. Great to see it's still working! :thumbs:

It's a runner! Wiring isn't 100% done. Going to try to get that finished up tomorrow. It still needs tuning but I may have to do that at Pullstart's.

Haha yeah I was a bit worried about having enough room in the furrow for the weight on the right front tire. But it worked ok, definitely can't keep them nicely painted doing that though. 

 

Thank you! Now that this one is about done, I think it's time for my 73' to get some love next.
