Allan did you get dug out?

Warm and to muddy to do much here.

Wish it would freeze up.

I thought that is what you were up to. At any rate, ya sure got me up out of my chair last night!

Naw, you didn't offend anyone; it was kind of fun. :>)

Allan

But we have lots of snow in the mountains, where we need it, to run the turbines in summer to keep Calif. from sliding into the sea..:>) And our irrigation systems...

Get your "snow mobile" out and go play in all that white powder..:>)Oh, don't forget to mount your snow-blower too...ROTFLMAO

Got the critters all bedded down and fed up good. Today, I’m gonna see if I can make a little headway on an old 1066.

By the way, if anyone ever needs to know the electrical layout of these tractors, I can now recite the darned circuits from memory down to and including the silly color codes. :>)

Allan

Or, on the other hand, they just might have been listening to the fence singing and it thru 'em all out of whack.

Wonder who dreams up this stuff? :>)

Allan

I'll never electrify a barbed wire fence again. Sounds like that is really a dangerous thing to do! :>)

Allan

Now that you mentioned it.
What is the deal on the wiring from cabs to fenders.do you just change the wiring from under the dash to under the floor board.i need to get the 9 an 1066 both fixed.flashers an work lights.

Bill

The cab loom threads up and connects to the main tractor loom upstairs behind that upper gauge panel.

I'm such an old fuddy-duddy when it comes to being "authentic" and just won't "snip" the wires. Just can't bring myself to do that; gotta take 'em one at a time out of their connectors. :>(

When I get done, I want both tractors as close as humanly possible to the original factory setup and that's why I took the time to go "electic fishing". :>)

Allan

You are a man after my own heart on that one. Any installs of addons I do I like nice and neat also. Did you know Case had a parts book with all those electrical ends and connecters? I have a copy and can get you the pub number if you want?

I know Fixerupper was looking for a nice crimp tool and the last couple of times I was over to his place I keep forgeting to ask what he did.

If you are using that tractor in the summer in dusty conditions you will want the air to work.

I've spent as high as $800 dollars to get my air working again.

I would not sell either of my 1086's for anywhere near that amount, but I know what I got also.

Gary

Don't worry about the air.

Tinker toys are the only thing I can think of that are simpler than working on an air conditioning system. There's just not much to 'em.
