Just another reason not give him one dime. I am sick of people trying to shove people around over common terms. Maybe John Deere should write him and tell hill to quit using their name in his magazine.

Too many of the Two cylinder crowd seem to think that their crap is golden and all should bow to them.

I am a John Deere man but I will tell you that John Deere would have been out of business if the multi cylinder engine had not been introduced on the new generation tractors.

The two cylinders tractors where and are crude. Try using one for ten hour days and then tell me how much you like them over something better designed. They where good in the 1930s and 1940s. By the mid 1950s others had better ideas. A good Ford 961 is a much easier tractor to operate than a JD 520. The bigger Two cylinder tractors had started to have problems when JD tried to get more horse power out of them. That is why the multi cylinder engines came out.

Does that mean I can't use my two cylinder air compressor, two cylinder tractor,two cylinder lawn mower, or two cylinder generator any longer?

Think I'd use it for toilet paper and send it back to him.

Common term for over a hundred years.

There's a pretty good discussion of this issue here on this forum under "John Deere". See 2 piston club posts.
