Any brake issues before the pad replacement?

The right brake piston may be sticking, you may need to take apart and make remove any corrosion on ther piston, Clean it with brake fluid.

If that does not work I would bleed the line.

Not Murf here but I love the smell of Diesel fuel ! Little soot markings is fine in my book as long as it is not smoking after it warms up... just my 2 cents

Perhaps you are over thinking it. I have changed fluids both with the loader on and off and I do not see the need to do anything special. Hopefully I did not screw up ;-(.

Some people like to fill their oil filter cartridges before they install them, never did that either.

If you are worried just detach the quick connects after releasing the pressure in the circuit.

Best of luck !

[QUOTE=Terry60;199206] ....3 are shot, [/QUOTE]

Hi Terry,
When you say 3 are shot do you mean 3 moles are shot. Or on you personally have 3 things that trouble you?

I ask because work on your yard will not bear any improvement if the underlying issue is not resolved.

When I was a kid we had a beautiful lawn that was being attacked by skunks. We unfortunately shot the skunks. That was not the problem. The problem was we had thousands of grubs that the skunks were eating.

So you need to figure out whether you have moles or gophers. If you have grubs, you probably have moles as they love them, not so with gophers.

There are various approaches once you know what you have.

I think the roofing tar would fill it the cheapest based on how wide it is. Those little driveway jugs are for narrow 1/8 to 1/4 max.

That said if it is a residence that roof stuff will result in a lot of tracking it be big mess til next winter and then some. It is a liquid that melts at lower temps. Most crack seal is hot seal on low temp tar.

I think you should pull out the old material and put a couple bags of bag asphalt and tamp it down. It will crack again but you will not fall into the crevice :-)

1)Get a restoration kit for the tractor<br>
2)Get as much documentation and manuals as you can<br>
3)get or borrow all tools and measurement micr etc.<br>
4)take pictures as you go, keep notes<br>
5)come up with a way that you plan to store all nuts and bolts etc. A magnetic dish is a good idea to hold onto stuff before you put them in sandwich bags with labels my favorite :(<br>
6)say a prayer and hope all goes well<br>
7) look up therapist if you have problems

I am finishing a basement that has poured concrete walls, and also has sheetrocked wood frame walls on the side that is above ground.

Some of the basement walls are a combination, half way up concrete the rest frame, insulation and sheetrock. On these walls I have to frame another wall in front to elininate the ledge.

Question where I have to build a "straightening" wall can I have frame, insulation, sheetrock, insulation,frame , sheetrock.

Or do I have to remove the redundant sheetrock?

Do I need another vapor barrier?

Do I need to gut the sheetrock and existing insulation out then do the "straighten frameing", then insulate and sheetrock???

Thanks for any guidance

The more I read, the more I think, the less decisions I am making. Some of the recent posts on mowers. Make me feel like I am pushing it with the B7500 with only 2.5 acres to mow.

But I guess time is money, and I just want to get done faster, but not too fast, like to mow in an hour + instead of 2.5 hours now.

I guess I better get out a dirve the Bx2200, B7500 and get a tangible feel for what is right.

Thanks for all your help, though it looks like another winter on the Wheelhorse, if we ever get winter.
