Thought you might enjoy a good laugh.:laughing:

Been working on the tractor, getting ready to install my second remote, and running the lines to the front hydraulics.:thumbsup:

I had removed the seat, seat pan, and cover over the rear remote levers. Forecast was for a bit of rain and snow flurries, so I just threw a tarp over it.:confused3:

We now have about 1.5 feet of snow on the ground :cool2:with more coming down. We need the snow bad for irrigation water so I am not complaining.:D

Now the delima - do I re install the seat in the snow, or just fire up the Big JD snow blower. Either way it will be cold :):confused2::eek::laughing:

Cold- yes, comfortable would be my choice.
Your butt will thank you.

Delima solved. Fired up the big JD snow blower, only to find gas dripping out of the carb and elsewhere. Strange when I check it last fall it was fine. I always run the carb dry between uses - probably caused the problem.

Note to self - change fuel lines after 8 years. It ran fine, just leaked and flooded itself (stuck float).

The Sun came out just long enough for me to get the seat back in - only used 4 bolts, but it worked. This was a very wet and heavy snow.
