What did you do on or to your LS Tractor today?

Looks good! Are they lined with anything to keep the rattle to a minimum?

I have the tools in a canvas bag on one side and surprisingly the chains in the other side don't rattle. I did put a strip of thin self stick foam on the underside of the lids to stop them from rattling, works well.

A canvas bag never even crossed my mind. Good call.

I like my Colt on my left next to my small tool box.

That's a novel way to haul and store your firewood. No mess, stays dry and easy to unload and store.

Actually got the idea on here in another thread or two. It does reduce the number of times I(we) have to handle it and allows me to store it vertically saving room.
I still need to figure a better way to secure for interstate travel, the plastic wrap was something I had and it worked, just not re-useable or very sturdy. Thinking maybe just cutting the top off of a IBC tank and see how that works or wrap the cage with chicken wire or something heavier.

Unloaded and weighed a few IBC's of Oak firewood! One weighed 1060, another 1273, didn't weigh the 3rd one.

How do you weigh something like that, locally yourself, or on a commercial scale?

ESC mode indicator, does anyone know why they bothered to install that rather annoying constantly flashing light ?

 

[Avenger]

Electronic Stability Control? Your tractor has anti-lock brakes?!

I'm not too sure what the ESC is.

 

[Avenger]

Ah. Google was my friend. Engine Speed Control.

You have a flashing light?! Thats probably not good. I looked in the manual, the only thing I saw was a solid amber ! for an ESC time out fault, which could be caused by an "ECU connection error or inner part fault"

Very helpful.

Yes owners manual says “this indicator is turned on when operating ESC main switch to ON position and engine speed control is ready”

well hopefully I just figured it out one of the engine speed control switches must have got bumped to the middle position, I tried Moving it to the off position and the light shut off.
