You mean it wasn't clean enough already???

Photos?

Finally got around to buying the BXpanded Quick-On Back Hoe Bucket Connector, 6 Inch Trencher Bucket, and Back Hoe Ripper. Haven't used the trencher bucket yet but have used the quick-on and the ripper: great. @Shawn T. W.: Thanks for your photo (attached) on another forum; big help.

Nice job and writeup/video. But your machine is way too clean! (jealous)

I do have 70-pound rear wheel weights on my GC 1723EB (thanks @Shawn T. W.), but I enhanced them. Fred Flintstone would probably like them.

If you know exactly what you need for hose size, fittings, and length, @kennyd at BoltOn Hooks will make them for you at reasonable prices, great quality, and will have them to you fairly quickly (although I see you are on the other side of the country).

I even thought of the possibility that a "mouse made a house" in the air filter or the inlet & outlet for it so I pulled off the housing and the hoses and cleaned everything. I even soaked the original air filter in soapy water overnight. Looking down into the intake manifold, I saw a bit of...

@hayden: Thanks for your response. It is a naturally aspirated Diesel (non-turbo). The air filter was all there, and I even thought of the possibility that a "mouse made a house" in there so I pulled off the housing and the inlet and outlet hose and cleaned everything. I even soaked the...

Good point(s). I did not adjust the valves (yet).

No advice, but I love those old pressed-tin ceilings.

I recommend you add the RetailREMS Sentinel guard for protection,

I have posted this in the Iseki forum: a lot of thick, black, sooty smoke: injector? I have 2022 Massey Ferguson GC 1723EB tractor (TLB). It just turned 500 hours recently and it has an Iseki E3112-XB03 engine. I has always had a little bit of black smoke at startup and under heavy load, but it...

I have 2022 Massey Ferguson GC 1723EB tractor (TLB). It just turned 500 hours recently and it has an Iseki E3112-XB03 engine. I has always had a little bit of black smoke at startup and under heavy load, but it has now started to really pour it out, again, especially under heavy load. It has...

Correct again! PTO relief valve setting is 79 psi.
