Why is is when people come here for help they won't answer a few simple basic questions. I don't like wasting my time. I don't have all that much remaining.

In order to proceed I was ask to log on. Being unable to log on, it seemed to be necessary to apply for an new password as my only choice if I wanted to continue membership. Is it possible to obtain a password of my choosing rather than the mix of alphabet letters and numerical digits?

Is there a market for older ford car wheels? I have four 15" from about the 1960 - 1970 era + or - a few years that need a new home. If they are needed for vintage restorations I'd rather see them there than go to the crusher.

to tie your equipment when transporting. If you do your knowledge of how to tie an improved clove hitch knot will make your life simpler and you can talk normal around clients, your minister, women and the grand kids when it is time to un-tie. Handy for non ratchet straps too.

How hard are your blades at the cutting edge? Do they have a Rockwell rating or other. Are they easily filed or is it difficult to sharpen them with a hand file.

Anyone using the echo speed feed 400 head. How is it?

Is there an Echo expert in the house that can tell me if the gas tank of an Echo 210 string trimmer has a slight positive pressure when running.

When I view a pic and click back browse the picture remains. If I click on " redirect you line " as asked to do, when back browse fails, that doesn't work either. To get back I must X the site out and go to bookmarks to get back. Can someone help a SeniorCitizen?

Due to the religious propaganda by Chosen, I have determined one of two things need to happen. Either the religious statements can cease or my name can be struck from the membership roster. Please notify me of your decision soon. Thank you SandburRanch

Have you ever had an engine fail because of: 1) a brand of oil 2) the viscosity of oil that was used And could prove without a doubt one of those two things caused the failure. If so how did you come to that conclusion?

As kids we didn't have purchased sleds but we knew how to shave the bark from a couple of small oak limbs with the axe for sled runners and build our own low boy sleds . More often than not it was pulled with a running horse with snow flipping from the feet directly in our face. But that was...

Now that snow season is drawing near for those in the northern hemisphere let's look on the light side .

I was in a JD dealership to purchase an air filter and pre filter for a LA-145 and fled the scene at a rapid pace because of price . What are you being ask to pay ( before tax if applicable ) for air filters at your JD dealer for those 100 2 cylinder series of tractors ?

did I ever save myself some work today. I misplaced my work gloves for about 5 hours. :laughing:

At 54 ft. my Murray may be a little light for this one. :laughing::laughing:

I saw a fellow changing oil at an auto service center and was using a neat tool that prevents hot oil reaching the hand and also prevents the drain plug from falling into the container. It looked similar to a 6 point socket with the side cut out and was magnetic. It was arranged on a cable 6...

If there is a good way to store a curved shaft trimmer in the garage I haven't discovered the best technique. Tell me how you store yours. Engine stuffed in a bucket, hanging, engine up , engine down, horizontal ( I'd prefer on a wall ).

My JD starts a lot quicker in cold weather if a little gasoline is put in the carb throat. But to do that the 4 wing nut thumb screws need to be to removed expose the air filter and carburetor opening. So in the little iphone pic you can see the butt end of a tubless tire valve stem ( right...

iphone pics sent in email look correct until clicked on to open and then they rotate 90° ccw. Why , and is there a solution?

Trying to find the thread about a guy considering making his own grind stone is impossible . I wanted to tell him to begin small and work up as this guy sharpening scissors is doing . :thumbsup:

Recent news brought up an old subject I had forgotten about. Ford F150 catching fire so I researched and found others. The culprit seems to be in the cruise control as near as I can determine from reading. This won't effect me but some members that drive fords or know someone that does may...

Is there anyone on the payroll that can delete one of the threads ( duplicate ) - - - Idler Engagemant Bracket - - - started by shameless? I'm sure it was an error he can't correct.

1970 Chevy Chevelle Malibu 350, 25,150 miles, one owner, garage kept. What will it sell for?

I've been mostly a DIY type and so changing oil in our vehicles usually isn't any big deal. Well, until this time. I did say mostly because I did take my wife's car to my dealer the last oil change which is very rare. So yesterday morning, according to the car's DIC, it was time for another...

I've ran Briggs engines for years and usually the plugs last that long also, but I have a Briggs engine in a new purchased John Deere LA 135 LE that has fouled the plugs around 75 hours twice in its 150 hour life span. I know when to replace them because of the sputter, pop, fart, banging and...

My wife's car, a 2011 Impala, needed a tire replacement due to a gash which deemed it unsafe. The tire specifications is listed below. My question is - does anyone know what items 1 and 2 are that were listed on the receipt ? TIRE - 2255517V CFTRDTOURB 1) VALVE TPMS,VS-950 GM FORD 2)...

One site I read calls the added compound for winter blend " oxygenates " . Isn't that somewhat vague . Another site I researched says " Butane " is added for winter blend gasoline . The details of the amount added must be strictly regulated because that information seems to be hush hush ...

If your JD has blade nuts with dimples sell them as scrap iron and replace them with nuts without dimples. The dimple will clearly be visible on a hex flat. Below is a copied post that tells the end result sooner or later. This is a grave error on John Deere's part and there will never be a...

This was copied from another site. I thought you engine mechanics might like to test your skills at diagnosing the problem. There is a statement in about the middle of a sentence that gives a clue as to why this engine that ran so well at first and failed so soon. Being a one lunger, a V8...

Is this something new where the clippings pile deep on top of the deck and the operator drives to a dumping point and just brushes them off?:laughing: I've never seen one like that. This one will auction but I don't believe I want it. :thumbdown:

For decades safety switches have been a pain in the **s. Not limited to lawn/garden tractors but in more recent years the big tractors are involved. Wouldn't you be mad as hell if you paid a quarter million for a tractor and in less than 30 days from the dealer it wouldn't crank because of a...

Would anyone know where the rectifier is located on a John Deere LA135 LE ?

In summer months we do everything we can to make the air cooled engines run cooler. But for those that use the tractor to blow snow, drive to the mail box or down to the Jiffy for morning coffee and chat, the engine not reaching designed operating temperature often presents a problem. If...

over on TBN? All of a sudden I can't post, reply, no hickie to go to last page, can't view pictures and there isn't even a paper clip by those that have pics. Contacting administration is impossible on a good day.

It's difficult to do because I find this badly worn knife, after 20 years, very handy for some carving tasks that the new knife wouldn't do well. It was lost, or should I say mis-placed, for nearly a year and that's why there is a new knife to compare. I'd rather not tell where I found it and...

Does anyone know of a source for this air filter that is priced reasonable. Don't mind paying a fair price for any product but I don't consider 25 bucks reasonable for Asian products such as this. John Deere 125 135 145 155C 190C Air Filter GY21056 OEM | eBay

Looks as if the cat trusts this guy. I happened onto this pic I saved several years ago and since it seemed to be unique I guess is why I saved it. Anyway, with all the discussion of how to work on the bottom side of a tractor I thought I'd show how this fellow does it. He claimed the rear...

There is only 34 posts to view at this time. And search gets me nowhere.

In lawn tractor manufacturing, do some employees belong to a labor union and some not, depending on which product is being manufactured? Example: JD LA105 vs JD X300.

I get this e-mail from TBN inviting me to join their sister site LMF. I dun no, maybe it's some screw ball wanting information. I don't have the know how to find out if it's legit or not.:confused2: but I I won't bother joining again.

with only 2 pics for identification?

I can have my lawn tractor battery out. Rotate the C clamps vertical to create carrying handles. Those battery posts will never see a bolt again. Did I say never again.:laughing:

It seems a majority don't like mowing wet grass. With this in mind it brings up the question of what do "The Commercial" people, that make their main income from the mowing business, do about wet grass. Wait until 4:00 PM when the grass may or may not be dry? So lets hear from the commercial...

Of course this is just one way. So you buy a turkey breast - X price/lb. x No. of lbs. and stuffed inside this breast is a plastic package full of nasty brown water that weighs 10.0 oz. When I say nasty that's a bit of an understatement. So then the text on the package begins to tell us what...
