:thumbsup:High. Surfing the Web and On searches I get a lot hits for this site I am a city folk raise around agriculture. Work for a few farmers. Love to work on mechanical items. Wife is consantly yelling at me for having so many various items. I have a Kubota, Simplicity, Cub Csdet all very old tactors and lawn tractors. The Kubota is my main one. Runs good when it starts it a B600 I think the fuel injector pump is going bad. Hard to find parts and the power take off runs backwards and it and oddball size have never use it. I was geting a feel for tires for it kinda looking for lug tires but they are perty pricey if you can find them. There was a salvage yard in Kentuckty but I lost it email address they specialize in Kubotas. My Simplitcy is blowing oil think it lost it rings. And my Cub Cadet lost it steering gears info is real sketchy as to what pat numbers are. I like to find salvage but a lot of times they charge more that what new would cost. And that one thing I do not have a lot of. I also have a few chain saws. And I been working on gas grass trimmers a real learing experince. More failure than acheiments. Those Walbro are good when they work but when they poop out that all she wrote. One thing I have learn from various sites is that gas goes bad in about a month you can use stabilt to strecht it but you are better off using new! And finnaly I been doing this for about 30 years. No schooling. Hands on and reading articles and books and advice from people with simlar backrounds. But if you want a job in this feild this knowledge don't mean diddly at today's standards. I know I tried for a job in a couple of feilds and they now want certificates. You don't have to have hand on just whip out that certificate and bingo your hire!
