David, I'm glad they are addressing it.

EGR valve issues are not new

I'd say they have a real problem because EGR is obviously part of emissions control and a failure
in any emissions equipment should be their highest priority. Otherwise you get EPA oversight and potentially
enormous fines.

If they take more than a week to do this repair, I would ask for a loaner tractor, delivered.
when you think how long you have been without effective use of your relatively new tractor,
LS owes you some quality public relations. The question is whether they have anything to loan...

That's a very expensive part, when you google it lots of hits over a thousand bucks. For a valve.
Maybe a valve in a nuke plant, but in your tractor?

some bot will now fly through this content, see the words emission control and failure in the same sentence and ding ding ding ding
an alert goes out.

Good Evening,
Got up to Vt by about 2 pm.

But I did take some pics of me cramming everything into my F150 ! We were loaded to the gills, but still managed to get 22 mpg.

Cut the grass when we got here after unloading the truck ! It was a bit high, so had to rake up a few piles of clippings!

Hope all have a pleasant evening !

D got her phone back. Embassy Diplomatic Security tracked it and confronted the person together with local police. Person arrested. She had it deactivated but now reloading from iCloud. It was not a foreign agent as suspected.

Started it up and idles fine but did not want to load it up without water going through it. It looked clean inside so may not be it. Will get a new spark plug and then try to load it up.
I would not be surprised if a new plug cured it. Hondas are very sensitive to spark plug issues.

RNG, nope not that simple, I wish. Fuel guage been misreading since I purged tank. Jim disconnected when troubleshooting. He jumped the connector, sometimes will read full, then go to empty when stalling sequence happens. Sometimes it just stays on empty.
Maybe that’s the problem, gauge goes to empty when it shouldn’t , tractor shuts down thinking it’s out of fuel.

only got .13” rain last night. Any helps.
Drove 6 hrs to the farm, then spent 3.5 on the tractor mowing.
This area was cleared of trees in 1971.

Some of it is very steep, gotta mow in a safe direction.

Good (Friday) morning. Overnight Low of 1.6C and it's presently 9.3C (perhaps heading to 12C). It's overcast and calm.

This arvo's plan is to chain-harrow the area that the lime was piled prior to loading/spreading. That's a good thing as the weather is predicted to change this evening with higher winds and a good soaking rain, lasting 'til tomorrow after noon.

That's about it, take care all.
