My tractor has an MHI S3L which seems to be a fairly common engine. Getting ready to adjust the valves again and want to have a spare valve cover gasket on hand just in case. I’ve can’t find parts anywhere. Amazon ,EBay, google searches all come up empty. Wondering if anyone else knows of a...

Ouch, $1000 is a lot. Not sure if you have a keyed, splined or smooth bore shaft, but replacement joints are out there. Here’s some keyed yokes in the right size at Tractor supply. Grainier has a good supply, but pricey, around $400.

I’m not understanding how a seal can walk out if there’s a seal retainer. Press fit yes, but a retainers supposed to keep the seal in place. Is it possible there’s something wrong with the retainer. Here’s a picture of one i got from Bill’s tractor and it looks different than the picture you’ve...

I’ve considered doing something similar. I have a 400 ft well super hard water and slow recovery that I’m nervous to use for any type of irrigation or heavy usage. There are 2 other hand dug wells from late 1700s that pretty much dry up every summer. So something like yours with a pressure tank...

Nice set up just curious why you installed it. Remote building not served by well or town water ? Save money on town water, reduce wear and tear on well pump ?

I have enough trouble getting rid of used oil and UTF, how do you dispose of the used solvent ? Safety Kleen ?

Not sure about overseas. My son sent me the info and said it was a kickstarter project that was going from development into production. Kickstarter is a crowdfunded development company in Brooklyn. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kickstarter

$8K if you want the string trimmer !

Wow this one cuts and trims the grass, snowblows the driveway, dethatches, aerates and moves your boat ! It does look pretty neat if you’ve got the cash to play with. https://www.yarbo.com/lawn-mower-robot

So even if you are fully responsible for an issue, you deny it and say it’s not my fault then hand it over to an attorney for resolution. I’ll make sure I teach that to my grandkids

I’ve had one for about 5 years and it works really well. However if you have a lot of brush/saplings to pull you really need a second person because as others have said, the on and off the tractor is not very efficient.
