Depending on the age of the B-7100 I'd also try removing the starter and have them test it. The batteries we sell for tractors have a higher CCA then we sell for the auto's. When using Glow plugs they can take the battery down fast. From what you have said your problem lies between those two items. To use your jumper cables to go directly to the starter does it crank better?

I'm starting to wonder if using a 540-rpm blower but turning up the engine rpm might be a solution. I think dividing the pto rpm by 540 gives how much engine rpm has to be increased for each 1 rpm of pto speed. I'm not sure how feasible the idea is since older diesels tended to have narrower power bands than newer engines. Still, the rpm can be turned up on most engines. There are some downsides to doing this and a tech who knows the engine could say if it's a good idea.

AS far as for operator comfort on tractors I find the Kubota controls comfortable. I have been driving farm tractors for nearly 40 years and Kubota is the most like what I'm used to. Being in the buisness and talking these tractors day in and out I know that the Kubota is the best long term value of the compacts. In comfort for the operator Kubota has lead the industry with the first factory installed cab for a compact tractor as well as the first hydraulic shuttle. Kubota offers simple basic controls that in 20 years will still be operating.

It has become a sad state when the Homeowners Assoc. can tell you what you can and can not have in your yard. I mean I understand it to some degree as I have lived w/ Homeowners Assoc. for the last few years and with no zoning laws in our County it does protect your investment, when you pay big bucks to have a nice house built and then someone buys the lot next door and puts up a 1910 trailer on blocks and 5 cars in pieces in the front yard. ( Seen It ) But common sense must prevail. I have a friend who lives in a sub-division that told him he was not allowed to park his Pick-up ( 2000 Ford F150) in his drive-way. It had to be in the garage at all times. ( Why becuase the president of the association is a city boy from DC and doesn't like the impression of a Pick-up in his WV neighborhoood. Needless to say my friend told them to pack sand and take him to court.

This is just my two cents. But it looks like you compared apples and oranges with the TC29D and BX2300. If you really wanted a fair comparision you should compare the TC29 to the Kubota 7800.
As far as clearing a drive with the FEL I can't really answer that as my TC33D gets delivered Tuesday. But there is another thread on here regarding using your FEL to snow plow.

I just purchased a NH TC33D HST. It gets delivered Tuesday, But I know what you mean. Actually it was all the New CUT's I test drove in my search, they all were a world of difference from what I am use to driving (an Old Farmall M). I know you can't really compare the two, Except in comfort and that is a key, especially when spending hours raking hay on the ole M. It definitely took it's toll. I can't wait to play with the new toy.

I purchased a used Dearborn rotary cutter this summer, the deck is in great shape, and it cuts everything that I have come across, but the gear box leaks in the worst way. I can't get more than a few hours of cutting with out adding some gear lube, and then it continues to leak when it is at rest.(until its empty!) The main seals are shot, is it worth rebuilding? and if it is does anyone know if parts are available?

Art why the oh! when the CK20 hst and bx2200 are compared?

I too am looking at these models and haven't come up with a reason NOT to buy the CK20. I would value you imput.

The CK 20 weighs more and is cast iron not alum. and less plastic. Is there something I missed? This is a big purchase for me and I would like your opinion.

Pardon my rookie question, but what does galvanized metal do to the diesel that ruins the injectors? I have been looking for two metal fuel tanks on stands, (250-500 gallon range), one for gas, one for diesel for my ranch. I had assumed the silver metal tanks I have been seeing were galvanized, but maybe not?

Dealer(central Indiana)said it is due in December. When he checked said it was in Colunbus,Ohio waiting for a load to come this way. Should be here very soon. The woods bh was $400 less and I thought the woods is a excellent bh. Do you still think I should go Kubota bh?

Even if you knock off the $800 it still comes to around 19%. Do you load tires for your customers for free? You may have a good point, maybe the bears are too well fed around my parts. ;-)

Something everyone seems to forget when comparing the Cummins motor to the Ford or Chevy diesel is the design. An inline six has far fewer (50% i read somewhere) moving parts than a V-8, and the surface area of the main bearing journals is something like 125% more. This is an INDUSTRIAL motor, not a disposable automotive pos. How many V-8 powered semis or tractors do you see?

Thought I'd give you folks the update on the dead Jetta.

It will LIVE again!! $35 fender, $60 (!!) for a headlight and turn signal, free left over paint (From 2 years ago "driveway" paint job), free use of the paint booth at work and tomorrow -- Reassembly!

I brought out my Dodge truck from semi-retirement to use, but as much as I love my Dodge, 45mpg from the Jetta can't be beat! She just runs too well to junk!

BTW had to put new batteries in the Dodge, and found that Semi tractor type ( type 31-P case ) batteries of 950 amps are much cheaper than the oem small case batteries. A bit of plastic trimming was all that was necessary to fit them.

Just some more useless info from your Uncle Larry.

Finally got a chance to try out the snowblower! Our weather in western NY has been snow/thaw/rain--not real conducive to using the blower. But I finally got about 5-6" last night over what I thought was enough of a base to give it try. It was great! Threw snow about 30 feet and never broke a shear bolt. I've got a few pics posted in my profile of today's fun. Thanks to you guys for your tips on this.
