Bitter ribs? Time to clean it out.
Mine was pretty bad but I found that hitting it with a propane torch first will melt and crystalize the creosote so it can be easily scraped off. Sometimes it just peels off on it's own. If you let it build up you'll usually end up with a bitter taste from the...
I recently replaced all the hydraulic hoses on my 7308 and bought them at a local shop that makes up the hoses. The hose is cheap but the fittings can be $10 each. Your town may not have a shop that makes them but I know Austin will.
I've been using the 5 gallon metal safety cans for years and twice I've found a black widow underneath right where I put my hand. Yes it's a pain lifting them up each time.
Is it leaking after you disconnected it? Probably a bad o-ring inside and the connector needs to be replaced.
The previous owner of my TC29D replaced all the quick connects with these flat style which are much easier to clean before I reconnect them. I give them a quick shot of brake...
In the past when I was moving tree branches and brush around I found it difficult to load longer branches into the bucket without the pile spilling out. I've seen several video where others bought or made bucket forks so I decided to make a pair and see how it goes. Nothing heavy, these are...
It finally arrived a few weeks ago and I got a chance to try it out today slicing sausage. Cut through with just the weight of the blade like cutting warm butter.

Found on eBay at a restaurant supply store.
I went with the Mobil 124788 Delvac Tractor Hydraulic Fluid in my 20 year old TC29D so the Warranty is not an issue They say it's compatible with Ford New Holland ESN-M2C-134-D and FNHA-2C-201.00.
Be sure you use a good filter if you can't find a NH one. I had to use a matching WIX filter.
I've been making do with a 30 year old kitchen set by Farberware and they just aren't cuttin'it anymore.. :) Sry. I mostly slice pork rib meat, occasional brisket, and turkey and found my old knives, even though sharp, tend to pull or shred the meat as they cut.
I've been looking at the...
I'm not for any laws like that but have to say I recently ditched the 2-stroke whacker for an EGO 56volt electric string trimmer and am kicking myself for not doing it sooner. I have about 1000' of fence and house perimeter and can easily do it in 45 minutes which is all the battery will last...
What you did should work out perfectly fine. I just changed mine on a TC29D and found the same things, including mounting the fan twice. The gasket was put on with kryptonite from the factory and there's no easy reference for finding torque spec's on the bolts. I can't recall what number I...
Well this is crazy. I bought another 8Lb butt a $1/Lb and was going to try a lower and slower method without foil at 200f until 160 internal then bump it up to 225 until done. Tossed it in the smoker at 2am and it started hitting the stall around 8am at 160f..... and there it sat until 5pm with...
I'm finishing up some winter maintenance and going through the hassle of dragging out the 914A mower from underneath. Normally I can Curl the bucket down to lift the front end but I have the 7308 FEL off for hoses and cylinder rebuild. I used a floor jack to raise the front end but there's...
It started when I noticed the tachometer wasn't showing the proper RPM's and the Gen light stayed on after start. Looked into it and found the fan belt was loose. While adjusting the fan belt I noticed the fan seemed loose and could be wobbled all around yet no leaks of coolant. I was hoping...
Big'ol 8 Lb. chunk of pork butt was tossed in the smoker last night around 2am. This morning at 8am the outside temp was 38f and the pork was sitting at 165. I always wrap it in foil to retain the moisture and get through the stall a little faster so this should be ready by lunch time. At a $1...
Hello again everyone. I can't believe it's been about 15 years since I posted in here about anything with my 1999 NH TC29D. With some routine care it's been 100% trouble free. I know this place always has the answers to any problems so here I am.
My lift arms can lift anything I need without...
