Just started with the Quinine pills and they have helped me after four nights of using them. Taste terrible. I also find orange juice is best for drinking when sweated out.

Some things I have heard people using have to be taken in such high dosages it concerned my doc.

In a surgeon's office a while back, he had a sign up that leg cramps could be a sign of vessel disease 5 years before it showed. Could be off on the wording here but it was a serious warning.

WW: What about Big Business? They are the biggest stumbling block to progress. Case in point: Back in the '20's I had a great uncle who was a machinist for GM. On his own time he made a device that looked like a simple impellor that mounted between the carb and the intake of a Caddillac. It nearly doubled the fuel mileage. He contacted one of the big gasoline supplier of the time. They came out and bought his invention and the tools in basement for $3000.

Why?

They didn't need competition.

Maybe this will help. Go to this link, search on O-rings. There's a link on the page that says "Don't see the O-ring you need? Just tell us what you're looking for and we'll get it for you". Click on that link and send 'em an email.

Not saying a 2004 model is old. But that is long enough for corrosion to show up in an open connection. Open connections do happen at factories also. Just replaced the total wiring on a trailer (factory built) due to that and it is not 2 years old. The push in connections on the lights had corroded enough to act as insulation. The light would work and then not work. Based upon the fact your trailer is new, I would look there first.

Another way to test if you have the option is another trailer that you know is working to your pickup and another pickup to your trailer.

Happy hunting.

It sure seems warmer than it used to be around here, mind you the heat is more on my mind now that I'm not on a boat cooling myself off too!! LOL.<br>
<br>
I was in Vancouver in late July for a few days and they were complaining about the record heat they were having that week, I thought it was kind of nice weather. It was just like 'normal' summer weather for Southern Ontario.<br>
<br>
On the other hand I flew to Northern Ontario yesterday with a friend to look at a plane he's thinking of buying, the airport at our destination said it was "sunny warm day" there, it was 58� when we stepped out of the plane a little before noon!!<br>

Best of luck.<br>

I was told this weekend, by my dealer, that there is an attachment you can put on the bucket mounts of the FEL that will allow you to attach almost any skid loader attachment. You might look into this as there would be a good variety of bucket sizes available.

I have used a "paint" from automotive paint supply store on my disk. It is designed to paint on rusted surface and give you a smooth surface. You can paint over it (may should be) but I just painted my disk black with it. It is a bear on brushes so if you use it, realize the brush is history as you can not remove it from the brush. It probably would work well on the sheet metal if and when it needs to be coated to prevent further rust.

I would have to stop by the paint store it get the name but will if you want me to.

Have a great and bless week,

Thanks for the reminder. Blew out all our air filters last night. Probably time to replace them.

Thanks again.

Those are a syphon system for cooling and my first thoughts are that it hasn't bled out. But why does it need to other then a blown head gasket or something of that nature if the cap had to be replaced and why one with such high pressure?

Thanks to all you tractor folk! The response to my song has been terrific!
I've posted on several tractor boards and the positive posts and emails have been very heartening! I've received hundreds of hits to the various sites and I even managed to sell a few CDs.

If anyone is interested, I have a few more shots of Charlie's TD18A that I'd be happy to forward. Just Email me.

Also I'd like to ask a favor:
I have the "Old Tractor" song in a sort of contest, the winner of which receives internet radio airplay on Folk Alley. If you go to the link below, you can hear your favorite tractor song, and (if you Log In, which is simple and non-intrusive) you can rate it 1 to 5. Highest rated songs get the radio airplay.
There is some great music at the site, even besides the "Old Tractor"!

That's a good reminder Beagle. I use a Bad River hitch on the 3-point which has a chain that limits up travel. It seems to do the job, at least with the pin hitch. The ball hitch will be a little less secure with up-travel. I'll have to add some safety chains and will add one to limit up travel just in case the ball pops loose.

That's the same system I'm talking about on mine, right? As to my comment about bad design on my SS, at the time I got mine NH didn't do their homework when it came to using a backhoe attachment which requires the operator to be out of the SS seat. Someone wrongly figured you could keep on going with a backhoe att. like they always did. As far as running myself over, how would that happen if I'm using a seat belt? (I also have a enclosed cab)

Hello Mike,
My problem with the FWD was just that little ball bearing on the shift lever. The detent was drilled too deep. I removed the ball and have not had any trouble with it going in or comming out of FWD, but without the ball, the lever will work its way out of FWD and I have to re-engage it. The other problem I have had with the trans is that sometimes when I go to put it into gear, it will act like it is in first and reverse at the same time, kinda like the PARK possition on your car, and when I let the clutch out, it will bind up and stall quickly. I normally have to put it in neutral, rock on the tractor a little and then put it into gear. In a few yrs I am sure that they will get these problems corrected and they will be just as good as a worn out John Deere. Good luck with your tractor.

Broken - Relax, I know the housing prices around Milw are obscene. I don't have a job offer yet. I have a phone interview with a firm located up around Minauqua (SP?) early this coming week. Not as ideal of a job, but much more ideal of a location in Wisconsin.

I'm not sweating moving yet since no reaosn to worry until I get actual offers in hand.

Besides, I'm working on getting over this sinus/fever thing the kid and wife gave me. Fun...

Oh yeah, I'm well aware the taxes in WI are much worse than Iowa.

Often when running low on fuel the sediment that has developed in the fuel tank gets into the fuel line with enough pollutants to hinder the flow of fuel through the fuel filter.
