What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

[kpinnc 16,981]

After removing the balance gears from my Bronco 14 a while back, the oil pan developed a pretty big leak. I didn't have a gasket at the time, so I had made one and it just didn't work. 

 

So today I pulled the engine and replaced the gasket. Gonna do some touch up on the engine before reinstalling. My Bronco looks sad with so many parts missing...

Yes, I'm sure the Ber Vac would have chewed right thru it.

Fer sure, I cut right thru hard Penn Dot snow banks along Rt 30 with that thing taking small chunks at a time but it got the job done

Seems like it. Just hasn't really quit snowing here since New Year's Day. Working all the little bugs outta it right quick. Turning out to be more reliable than I thought it would be.

As I predicted, all this snow is due to the fact that @Ed Kennell sold his Ber Vac blower 🤣

I think we should take up a collection to help @Ed Kennell  buy another two stage. Save the rest of us a lot of snow work next year

Might be a good time to sell my air conditioners.

 It sat in my barn unused for 5 years so  I sold it to you so it would get used.   Not my fault your tractor puked and you can't use it.

So let's blame this nasty weather on Mike.

Today I swept the two or so inches of snow that fell last night after I blew off about three inches yesterday. This is the first time in years I’ve used my sweeper to clean snow. Now that I’m retired from the snowplowing business I have time to mess around with this stuff. I used to come home from working and go to sleep. My driveway was always the last one to get done and usually a mess! It drove my wife crazy, but luckily for me she understood. One time I woke up and the driveway was plowed, I asked if she saw someone do it and she said no I did it with your truck I couldn’t wait any longer!! Anyway in this video you can see how well the sweeper works. If the snow hasn’t been driven on it sweeps it to dry clean blacktop. Obviously this only works like this in dry snow, and not slush. I also did a little clean up with the 418-C.
