HEY! I Found It

Snowing like crazy and we're getting new babies on the ground; so, I'm in a hurry today, right?

Darned feed tractor just won't start.

This has been getting worse and worse for the past few months. Tractor would initially start, spin about 6 or 7 times and then puff black and die. Wouldn't restart fer nothin'.

Checked everything that I could think of.

This morning I said to myself that this has just plain gone on long enough and I gotta find what's causing this weird/goofy problem. Pulled a plug and it's bone dry.......huh?

Ooops!

Darned choke cable housing was slipping in its clamp. Tractor wasn't getting any "cold" fuel. :<(

Check the simple stuff first guys,

What ya doing? feeding with the H that started it all?

LOL!

Naw, using the Hydro which is a gasser.

Oh, and did I tell ya? When one of the main cylinders on the loader has a leak, it can go thru $50 of oil so fast that it will curl the corners of yer checkbook.

Darned seal kit cost me $75 and it took me most of the day yesterday, but I finally broke down and fixed that little "irritation" too. :>)
