Pretty warm here today, needed to do a little mowing. As the little Kobota BX was easy out ( the Ford was parked in the back) I drove it. Went along fine for the first round, then BANG ran over something! Turned out to be the top link pin worked loose and I ran over it. I could not believe that a mower blade could not only bend a pin but also take a chunk out of it. Well no harm no foul went back to mowing. Got 2/3rds done and time for a break, drove up to the shop and turned the Kubota off NOT!! The darned thing kept running! Well I do not know much about diesel engines but, I did know it has an electric fuel pump,no problem, took the ground off the battery it should run out of fuel right? Not! I called a dealer he suggested a few things that did not work, one was unplug the fuel pump still runs, I put a hose clamp pliers on the fuel line,still runs! It ran on the trailer 40 miles to the dealership ( they had a bet if it would be running when I got there). One of the mechanics had it stopped in about 10 seconds. An electric solinoid was bad! Oh well a few hundred to fix will have it back next week. Now I have to finish with the Ford. joe, poorer but wiser

In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together.
