Does any one know of a scource for a reasonably priced head gasket, for my Ford 1500. The dealer wants a $100. This seems like robbery.

I gotta agree with Bird the Tufline is a great blade. I have done alot of things with it that it wasnt made to do and it has not let me down yet. I would sure buy another one if something happened to this one. Just MHO

I gotta agree with Keith my box blade and tractor combination don't dig good at all. and I aint never seen a blade that was heavy enough to be functional. what I ended up doing was insert a steel tube about 18" long onto one or other lift armes. now I got the weight and an angle that cuts off the high spots and kicks them to the center. I have also fitted a peice of 3" channel iron onto the front blade with the flat side to the front. this prevents the blade from digging in and just allows it to remove the high spots while still having the 400# weight of the box pushing down. It works for me and my neighbor has adopted it on his tractor as well. Just my 2 cents.

Get the rear finish mower, I have had both and life is alot easier with the rear mount. Also get the rear discharge, that way you will not get the wind rows to clean up if the grass gets alittle long after a couple weeks of rain.

I own 3 of the Coleman 5Kw generators with the 10hp Tecumseh, also bought 2 for
my father-in-law for business not Y2K one of them had the same problems you talk
about. I brought it back to Builders Square they replaced it no questions asked. I have used one of mine in the mountains of Colorado camping with no problems with atmosphere corrections. You just got a bad unit it happens. Just to bad you messd with it you really should have returned to the dealer.
