You might want too look up companies that offer handicapper driving aids. I have seen extruded aluminum blocks that attach to the pedals in similar fashion to what Murf suggested.

Do your machines have telescoping and or tilting steering columns? My New Holland TC33D has both and makes it easy for my young neices (7 y.o.--with me in the seat too--and 11 y.o to drive it).

There should be a bleeder nut/bolt on top of the injector pump that you'll need open and let the fuel bubble out until it runs clear. You can let gravity take over or do like I do and pressurize the tank slightly at the fliier neck with compressed air (a wet rag wrapped around the air nozzle works as a seal. A shop vac with the hose on the vent side will be sufficient too) You may also be able--not sure--to keep starting it until it runs (my New Holland machines work that way). Also crack open one or all injectors too when trying to start.

Remember to empty the sediment bowl and clean the filter too as there is a good chance that running out allowed the nasty stuff in the bottom of the tank to go to the filter.

Anybody have any opinions on AG King tractors? I'm looking at a 27 HP, with FEL, a few implements and a 16 foot trailer for $13,500. Thoughts?

Don, you would get a great view that way but I'd look for an assistant for a few minutes and just remove the deck and have the tractor properly supported on stands or blocks and go underneath that way. To have someone else turn the knob when you can see what's happening will save a lot of work you might not need to do!

During the crop growing season farmers do get a break from normal chores and they still could be a cheap investment in doing the initial tillage work that you.

Backwoodsal,

I'm happy to learn that I'm not the only person who lives in such a cold climate as we have here in northern North Dakota.

You're right, Sir. Starting any piece of equipment when the temperatures are -40, or colder, can be VERY DESTRUCTIVE.

It takes a lot of planning and preparation, with no short cuts at all, in order to keep a piece of expensive equipment operational for many years in this weather.

We even change the air in our tires twice per year. (Just kidding) With every 10 degree drop in temperature, tire pressures will fall about 1 PSI. No big deal for most people.......but our temperatures change 140-180 degrees from winter to summer. That makes for a pressure difference of 14 to 18 PSI per tire.

That's just one of many things we have to plan for up here in the great white north........as you well know.

Nice to meet you.

Joel

Earthworks,

Yep,that sounds right. I road in one of the first 50 around the chrysler track in Arizonia. I did not enjoy the ride either.

Everyone, thanks for your assistance and comment. I have chilled out about the delievery... Again i think the dealer is doing what he can. Backorder is backorder. He even called around to other dealers looking for one with no luck.

I have a Boomer 1530 and am doing some 600+hour maintenance. Has anyone replaced their power steering resevoir/filter? The manual recommends to do this, but my dealer had difficulty getting a part number (a recurring problem for Case/New Holland in my experiences) which leads me to assume that this isn't a popular filter to replace. My other alternative is just to replace the fluid and leave the existing resevoir/filter alone.

I've had to improvise diesel mufflers for my equipment. I've used regular automotive mufflers from the local muffler shop. They tend to have a vast array of them that have many sizes and lengths and purposes, and "input" and "output" configurations--like having the "in" and outs" on the same end or opposite end or offset from each other. I'd try to stay with something with roughly the same in and out inside diameters. Otherwise, you might get a deep, throaty, overly-loud sound. With permission from the shop, I'd bring your tractor to the shop and just start experimenting with different sizes with it running. Then as a favor to the shop for their time and expertise, buy it from them and have them weld the flange and/or bemd pipe for you.

Keep in mind that if you don't replicate the mounting system (spring-held, supported vs. non, etc.) you could end up breaking the block or manifold.

If the muffler body itself is in decent shape (the inside baffles are not rattling inside) you might want to "rebuild" it with new sheet metal and a MIG or wire-fed welder.

How is that new CK25 doing for you? I am looking at the same, mainly for plowing snow in a few years when I make it back up to Colorado. Kioti is one of the few that I have narrowed down to. If you are still looking for a blade, check out this site: http://www.curtiscabs.com/tractor_loader.html

Also remember that when you finally get it loose and pops off unexpectedly, the telescopic shaft can pinch your hand where the shaft fits inside the tube. My farmer relative got 14 stitches when it pinched him a few weeks ago. I always wear leather gloves.

It seems for the money the BX24 is the hands down winner based on cost. I am not in need of a backhoe but I cannot justify the cost of the backhoe (should I need one) for the Deere.

Coming off a Grand L4630 I am horsepower weary but possibly the BX24 is the way to go especially when I consider what I get for the money...
