Thanks Chief,
We all need the reminder. Unfortunately there are too many out there who cannot seem to make the connection between sacrifice and freedom.

All the things mentioned above are possible. Typically most engines will run 1/3 to 2/3 of range of the gauge with mid point being common for many engines.

The problem with new equipment you have no real way of knowing what is the problem because all the parts are untested basically. I agree with the thermostat as being a good candidate. With only a few hours I would have the dealer check it out. If you are checking the external radiator temperture try to find a similar tractor that runs hotter and see is the reading are the same or different is one thought.

wildbill, I am not sure as to why you want a narrower tire width but you might want to consider the wider tire width will give you better stability on slopes. I wish I could get a wider width with my R-4's but there is no adjustment to be made. If over lap for the MMM is what you are after; wouldn't you want a 72" MMM? You will likely run into width problems with many trailers with a 72" MMM.

If I'm not mistaken it is actually a Federal Department of Transportation law that dictates the color of the vessel used to transport the liquid--makes it easier and quicker to determine the flammability threat in case of an accident that involves fire or explosion---makes sense. And there is a fine for being caught using the wrong color vessel.

You may want to ask what size screen they are using.
I would not want anything over 3/4" slotted loam screen.
You will notice a big difference when finish raking.
I quess $12 buck a yard for rich screened field loam isn't
so bad after all. $25-30 a yard OUCH!
If buying buy the ton ,you might want to check those
figures.

I can understand a shop that's booked up with work,The local
dealer I'm refering to has a reputation of being very arrogant. His response to my price quote was "We aren't
going to give them away"? I think he is one of the biggest in Maine but 1400.00 bucks paid for my blower.
I love the look on the salesman face when I go in to buy things, oil change etc. I went out in the shop to ask about the install of
my block heater and there were three mechanics sweeping the
floor at 3:00 in the afternoon. there are at least 15 mechanics in this place, it's huge, JD + Kubota.
I have also been to R.S. Osgoods and Union Farm Equipment
both of which I would highly recommend,no attitude even though I didn't buy there."well maybe we will earn your business" . I asked the owner of Osgoods in Dixfield Me.
about warranty work, "bring it in anytime" no problem.
They have been there since 1930. I can see why.
Unless your limited in the amount of dealers in your area,I
still say it's a bunch of bull. But then again your on the other side of the fence.
It's not my intention to offend all dealer's.

I am always amazed at how the japs (Kubota) can brainwash people into thinking a lighter aluminum tractor is better than cast iron tractors. And they even get more money for them!

The engine in the Kioti 1914, is identical to a so called Kubota engine. I say so called because neither company engineered it, they simply manufacture it after purchasing the rights to do so. The Kubota filter #70000-15241 will fit the Kioti 1914. Most Kioti engines are nearly identical to the engines in Kubota. Kioti didn't steal anything from Kubota any more than Kubota would steal from the Germans! Never ever expect the truth from Kubota!

The toughest thing I ever had to get out of a snow blower was a car tire! It wasn't mounted and never sheared a pin! It took about two hours to cut and pull out!

For sure. We had to move the sucker over a door sill into another room. By turning one set of wheels 90 degrees we could roll it in two directions, but had to lift it anyway.
