sqrlgtr 4,100 #3431 Posted October 10 (edited) Another shot of 701 but I was feeling pretty patriotic after making a new front axle pivot pin and making bushings for the wore drag link. Using my homegrown flag bracket and the bestest flag in the world. A special thanks to my shop fan for helping with the shot.

c-series don 12,523 #3432 Posted October 10 @sqrlgtr I love the fact that you went through the effort to have the fan blow the flag! Brilliant! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c-series don 12,523 #3433 Posted October 10 In full disclosure, I took these pictures the other day to post in this thread. I had the 418-8 and 70’s vintage Cyclone spreader out to spread some lime. Last year before putting it away and giving it its usual cleaning, I put tire shine on the tires. Then I started to think? I wonder if anyone else is wacky enough to do that? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 3 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 10,090 #3442 Posted Wednesday at 12:24 PM @Sparky referring to engine damage / destruction , personally , make a point of avoiding it . https://www.walmart.com/ip/Valvoline-VR1-Racing-10W-30-Motor-Oil-5-QT/5089154508? regularly experiment with basics , the OPERATIONAL RUNNING EASE WITH THIS OIL IS REDICILOUS ! you can sense / feel how much easier it functions , like to zero in on effortless operation , REPEDITIVE PROBLEMS , let you , kill them ? they are ALWAYS THERE ? been an added zinc fan forever ? BREAKS DOWN ENGINE VARNISH , none of my engines smoke , add 1 - 2 oz of sta bil to every tank top off , fuel filters are always , clean / clear , also fuel bowl is clean , quick starts , doing this for years . marvel mystery oil , is great for faded tractor paint ? gently wipe it on , and let it soak in , for weeks , if its inside , warmer , even better , don't rush this , a darker stage will tell you of lubrication , depth , do all of my paint recovery this way , that 10-30 is also great in cold starts , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 11,070 #3445 Posted 2 hours ago leaf cleanup begins 2026 it had been a couple years since we last ran Comanche ( @Coulter Caleb’s 854) and so we got it out, dumped the fuel, cleaned the fuel bowl, fresh fuel and then fun! Zach loved driving the little tractor and I was reminded that is seemed like yesterday his older brother was helping with the same work and he was riding in the trailer they grow up quickly this guy looks right at home on the 62 year old tractor then big brother stopped by unannounced (I love it when he does that)! Zach asked Caleb if he would drive him across the backyard for “old times sake” (I’m not crying…it’s just the dust from the leaves🥲) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
