Rounded off drain plug

Maybe if he sharpened his chain it would cut better.

Me too.

I think you have a size problem.
I'm only on page 21 as of this post.
I like big pages.

I can't stop chuckling. I checked with my wife. There is no size problem. .............. HA HA - I am set at the default. You must be seeing at about 100 posts per page. Wonder if I will live long enough to see this thread end? Ha. It is amusing.

I wonder whether he ever tried getting that thing out with a... pallet!

NOTE: heating and cooling is still a good approach; if not a torch then perhaps a heat gun set on stun...

Once again...I should know better by now. Drinking a soda reading replies like this!!!!!

Saaay there,i don't believe he did. I also don't recall anyone suggesting he try it with his fingers either.

Oh good lord.

Hello!

Can't remember if I actually stated, issue with using a pipe wrench was that it just sheared material from the plug.

The beam running underneath is a support between the loader frame, bit of a hassle to remove and replace (due to pressure on it) but ended up doing so to drill through the plug and use the easy out bit shown in the plug back in whichever post I uploaded that picture in.

Wow. Three+ years and 209 pages, for such a (fairly) simple/common problem.

Yes, you mentioned it in post # 10. (The only reason I know that is because in the latest resuscitation of the thread, it was mentioned a few days ago.)

Welcome back, Kando.

 

[Kando]

Thanks sixdogs, and thank you for reaching out.

Other news on that tractor, recently replaced the manifold, gaskets, and needles on the carb as well as the fuel shut off. (That was a royal pain.) Just need to get around and readjust the carb (distributor tune too) and it'll be good to go once again for raking hay or pulling wagons.

Thanks, Kando. Stick around, send any pics you might have and know you have one of the more memorable threads on TBN.

Well you can’t beat pallets.

I’ll let myself out.

Kando--just to refresh this memorable thread so let me ask how things are going with the Ford 960 and the tune up work you were doing in January? How did, or how is haying working out?
I wasn't aware you had two Ford 5000's. Any updates or comments on those?
