Hi Ron

Will get it on Sat. and will post impressions as soon as I get some time on it - really getting anxious.

you are very blunt!!! (so am I) or so my wife tells me along with other. Some people dont like it some dont pay attention to it? and some appreciate it. I always say, "At least you know where I am coming from and right or wrong you will never not know exactly how I feel" You do sound passonate about your work, nothing wrong with that, You have good info and have a good knowlege of mechanical workings in tractors. Speculating on whether someone is lieing or not is always a prescription for trouble. Most of the time when you call a onion and onion most of us here already smelled it on the board and were thinking the same thing anyway!!! You know what I mean!
It sounds like you have a good heart and a consience, that makes for a generally good person!!!!! (In my book anyway)

Many of our 4wd shafts are cast, green turned in a cnc lathe, hardened and quenched right on the spot (same cell) then moved over the the next machine and HARD TURNED in the lathe. Some times its hard to tell from the untrained eye if it was turned or ground. When you turn hard material it comes out (usually) as smoothe as a gring job.
We HOB many gears in the same general way along with splines on the shafts. Anyone have a question on the exact part and I can find out for you. Our foundry gets shut down this week, what a shame. Since we have been getting outside castings we have had quality problems but they ussually get weeded out before they go in a machine.
Many if not all the big three and others have outside comp. making their castings (it is not in our CORE buisness plan anymore) AS for ISO ??? At the last 3 places I have worked at we all have been ISO compliant. What a joke!!!!! Dont count on it saving the world, after
the inspectors leave most places bend the rules when production is in jeperdy. Management wont admit it and production complains about it and the cycle goes on and on. If your in UPPER management you will call me a liar, if your on the bottom you will say ISO does and means next to nothing (sometimes) and if your where I am, in skilled trades and have to rework parts back to spec and see what actually happens after ward you will believe me. Our ISO quality guy knows me VERY well! I am in there most every month complaining and taking care of engineers and buyers that are covering their butt by having us keep GOOD parts supplied to the lines. On a side note, every part we machine (repaire) will be to exactly what the prints call for or I tag it and turn it in to ISO. What happenes after that to it??? ask upper management? This is not localized to NH, trust me!!!!!! Its at DEERE, Cat. and one of the major dairy pump and valve makers here in the states. Whether or not it was abuse??? Who are we to say unless we had first hand knowlege. I just had a rest button SNAP! after just touching it with a drift, that never happened to me in over 20 years in the trade so crap does get thru to customers in ALL phases of production in every company in every buisness. What a company does with it when the facts are revieled is anouther story. ""And thats all I have to say on that matter!!!""

Here is a note for anyone that gets into a similar situation. I keep a pair of high lift jacks in my pickup - have done for years. They will lift about 7000 lbs about 42". You can push and move about anything with them as long as you have something to push against. I once move a 4wd pickup about 100' to where I could drive it out. Very slowly I grant you but I had a couple of lengths of 2 x 12's to put under them. very tired and muddy when I finished but I would have to have walked a couple of miles or more to get help. I was pretty far out in the boonies.

Thanks for the advice. I've had quite a few people tell me to check the compression, so I'll give it a try.

I just bought a Century 2028 with shuttle shift. Do all tractors have the shuttle shift behind the steering wheel? I find the shuttle shift awkward to use. I have to lend forward and reach under the steering wheel to shift. It would be much better if the shifter was beside the seat, like the gear shifter. Does anyone know of an adapter that would make the shifter more accessible?

bnrhuffman..did you know they're still making Whizzers? I'm sure they're updated but look interesting. Just do a web search for "Whizzer motorbikes".

My old Whizzer quit running so a buddy had a brainstorm and put a battery ignition on it. Of course, the 6v dry cell would expire and it would quit..sometimes out of town. So..I found new magneto parts and replaced the battery system with the original. Sounds like your dad's machine might have a bad ignition system...not much else to them except fuel and compression. Or maybe the cam gear was put in out of time.

Long's are pretty good durable tractors. I don't know who made that particular tractor. The current Long FWD are made in Korea. There are some good tractors coming out of Korea.

Did you have to replace any of the injectors or did the power service clear it up?

Hello & Help<br>
<br>
I have a Massey Ferguson 1020 Gear 4 WD Tractor w/ 1014 loader. It looses power, like being under a load and stalls, after I run it for over an hour doing work. Starts fine, idles a little ruff (could possibly use a tune up).<br>
<br>
But when it gets warmed up, about an hour of work. The power dies off and it wants to stall at idle. No temp lights or any other signs.<br>
<br>
Is it an oil pressure problem? Hydrolics? Or do I have a stuck valve / need a tune up and engine check? Or is it the start of something major?<br>
<br>

I have a L3130, with a LA723, and started to have problems with my FEL value binding. Two weeks ago it stopped working while was moving a full bucket of LARGE stones. Luckily know one was around. Turned out the one of the control valve links broke in half, and the other cracked right where the safety lock pin goes. Took the pieces to my dealer and they never seen that happen before. After taking apart a new valve assembly we found the linkage, that broke, was redesigned (beefier). They replaced the linkage under warranty.
