    New Toyota Tundra’s Recalled for Spun Crank Bearing

    I agree with 5030. You're talking about an older turbo diesel in a small car. Different animal than the modern petrol burning 1/2 tons that are being discussed here. My day DD a early 00's Beatle TDI for several years. The fuel pump is the issue on those engines. I generally do oil changes...

    HF Icon vs. Pittsburgh line

    Rarely do I buy HF anymore. HF has become too proud of their products. Your reputation is built on being budget, cheap tools. You better stop pricing yourself in the same league as other name brand tools that are now made in the PRC or Taiwan. Why would I buy a set of Icon wrenches for the same...

    Massey 2635 questions

    You may want to recheck that year model if you're in the states or likely the NA market. Over here I'm pretty sure MF replaced the 2600 series with the 2600H series in 2015 as they had to go to tier4 engines. The 2635 Simpson 4 cylinder is not tier4, while the 2607H's (model that replaced the...

    Emissions delete

    I have wondered this with some JD's. Not deleting emissions persay, but running more preferred emissions. In 2015 JD added a DPF to their 3 cylinder 5E series. (I own a 5075E, so I don't want to speak on what or when they added any given emission systems to any other given machines, as I don't...

    Engine oil

    Hmmmm.... I've heard that early DEF diesels could often use real pee, but never knew water would work, or that trucks as modern as 2016 could fool the system. Good to know.

    Engine oil

    No reason that you can't go from conventional, to synthetic, then back to conventional. Now sometimes you are required to use synthetic. DEF for example. Basically you've got conventional peepee that comes from organic creatures, and then you've got man made synthetic peepee that is made in a...

    I keep breaking 1/2 ratchets on my lug nuts.

    Absolutely. A proper 3/4 setup is a whole different ball game. Kind of like with a tractor you're better off having the right tool for the job. If you're looking to plow 600 acres worth of fields then you're 55 HP tractor isn't as ideal as a 400 HP tractor, but if you're looking to maintain your...

    Transferring propane from old tank to new one

    Well I honestly doubt they will be coming by to get the tank anytime soon knowing this companies reputation, and people claiming to have to keep pressing them to get their tanks out their yard. If they do however come get it before I run the gas out then they'll need to unhook it, and I'll hook...

    Do all HD pickups ride rough?

    Try doing this with a 1/2 ton. The trailer weight alone would possibly have a 1/2 ton bottoming the bumpstops out on the rearend. Admittedly when I bought this tractor new, JD delivered it the same as it's configured in this picture with the tires filled, and the FEL, weighing probably 8,500+...

    Disc mower on a compact tractor

    We used 60 HP Farmtrac 665's to operate a Gribaldi & Salvia DM207 for years. This is a 9.5' disc mower. My 5075E had 0 issues with it. I would even take the FEL off for an easier to maneuver, and less bounce ride in the bumpy fields. Unless you just get reckless l, hauling butt on bumpy ground...

    Transferring propane from old tank to new one

    Hooking up my old tank is an excellent idea. It's probably going to sit out here for a long time. Any idea what kind of threaded ends will fit these 325 gallon home tanks? Thanks,

    Transferring propane from old tank to new one

    Someone was saying that gas companies aren't allowed to take gas out of another copies tank, but IDK for sure.

    Transferring propane from old tank to new one

    I'm hearing mix, but not positive feedback on them fully reimbursing you for gas in the tank. That got new ownership a few years back, and the new people seem to not be so good. I'm not the only one I know of who is on the outs with them, switching to someone else. They're just not pleasant to...

    Transferring propane from old tank to new one

    Is there any way to do this. I recently switched propane companies, and the old company hasn't come to get their tank back yet. Right now both tanks have about 30% propane in them, and I'd love to keep the old gas I paid for. When they installed my new tank yesterday they wouldn't/couldn't take...
