bad day at the garden

[BairleaFarm 340]

Do you every have a day where your chores are not going good? I cant get anything to work right. The plow wont plow, the tiller wont go deep enough. and the damned c160 hydro sucks. Its gotta be the dry weather. :banghead:

[kj4kicks 154]

Maybe it's a loose nut behind the wheel ? :banghead:

[Mith 2]

Yup, last friday/saturday. Sat idle all Sunday as I didnt want to break anything else.

[KyBlue 655]

How deep are you trying to till dude??

ya know...if its that deep...maybe ya need to rent ya a bobcat or something..haha

[BairleaFarm 340]

My tiller has tilled eeper than 7" before I couldnt get past about 2" today

Nothin' like putting power to the ground with an 8-speed or smokin' a Ford with a Duramax!!! Good to hear... :banghead:

[BairleaFarm 340]

Bah Humbug I've got a GT14 that will out till just about any tractor that I know. So I don't think I would blame it on the hydro unless yours really does suck. Just ease the tiller down give the handle a little push and this ol girl will just cruise right on thru untill you reach the opposite end, No Problem. She will sit in there and dig 6"-8" depending on how deep I want to go. I also had a D-200 with a 50" tiller with No Problems. It did whatever I needed. I wouldn't blame the hydro's. I'm not going to say look at the operator but, maybe it was just a bad day. See ya Burly

The tiller is a walk behind. They hydro really does suck. Speeds up and slows down and blah blah blah. The one on my b100 is wat better and alot smoother. :banana:

David, David, David....

Let's see, bad day at the garden, pumpkin missing, punctured hydro filter, engine knock,

engine backfiring, sick C-160,....I think I lost count. Have you sent in your video to "Extreme Makeover, Home Edition" yet? :banghead:

[KyBlue 655]

or at least Extreme WH makeover edition..

[BairleaFarm 340]

Im still pissed about the pumpkin.

Pretty much all these tractors i bought need one thing or another. Ive decided what Im going to do this winter.

1. Build the 1077 Dump tractor

2. Get a starter a coil for the b100(best tractor ive got - thats all it needs)

3. The B120( ) and the 73 4speed will be put together and a 3 point hitch will be fabbed and installed.

4. Paint everything

5. Redo the C160 - I think alot of the PO have used what they had to fix this thing. The motor runs well But everything else (such as steering and front bearings) have been neglected. With all the other tractors running and movable ill have all next summer to piddle with the c160. My main likeage with this tractor is the hydro lift. But witht he 3 point hitch I wont need to worry about it.

Next year will be a better wheel horse year and I hope I can help more than I have this year with asking stuff ont he site. :banghead:
