Actually, we have no idea who the op is or when he joined. When TBN redid their website years ago, they kept many threads and renamed the poster as DO NOT DELETE with a join date of 1969 and a post count of 0.

I work full time in ag, im a grass farmer. Im big on pm and service to all my equipment. I get at least 3000 hours out of my small engines (honda,briggs & kawisaki). My isuzu diesel has 3500 hours on it and runs great, my duramax diesel is new 08, my kubota L is an 07 and i expect at the very least 6000 hours!
