    Kit Type Greenhouse Suggestions

    I'm considering the purchase of a kit type greenhouse and was wondering if anyone has suggestions as to who sell's what and who is reputable. I'm looking for a size around 16 feet wide by 50 feet long. I realize there are a bunch of configurations, poly, thinwall, glass etc. but can afford...

    Chinese Stump Grinder

    I recall one of the guys here had mentioned that they were working with the Chinese manufactures on coming up with a 3point stump grinder attachement. I am just wondering if any progress has been made. I really do have a need and don't have the time to design my own. Any replies are appreciated.

    Standard Y380T Max RPM?

    I was just browsing DanTheFamilyMan's post about the Y385 in his pickup truck and noticed the RPM he was running it at. My question is what is the standard max RPM for a 380 engine? I never adjusted mine and it max's out at 2500 rpm. I've heard metion of 2300 and have seen it rated on the...

    1618 disc setup?

    I need some advice on the setup of a 1618 disc harrow. I recently bought it and one side was setup different than the other. If you drew lines on the floor where the discs touch the floor would the front and rear discs be inline or offset? I'm thinking the fronts and the rears should cut in the...

    Tractor Sizing  Y380T Engine Drain Plug Thread Size?

    Dang drain plug is dripping a bit after the last oil change and I'd like to replace it with something like a PARKER #VSTI1/4EDA3C embedded seal plug rather than the copper ring at the next change. I suppose I could wait till then to measure it, but would like to have one on hand when I do the...

    Missing Grease Fitting on Water Pump?

    My manual mentions greasing the water pump. Danged if I see any fitting on mine. I remember a grease cup on some older designs of water pumps, but mine apparently doesn't have a fitting of any sort. Is this something that's been redesigned with permanently greased bearings?

    General Maintenance Schedule Jinma 204/254

    For those interested in something better than what I had for a quick reference I've worked up an Excel sheet and a .pdf file containing a Maintenance Schedule for the 204/254 class tractors. Much of what is suggested here is from my NorTrac manual. My intention is not to disclose any...

    No "glow" Glow Plugs

    No \"glow\" Glow Plugs Any idea on what might cause all three glow plugs, that have never really been used, to fail? When I first got my Jinma 204 (Nortrac 204C) it did have an amperage draw when the switch was in that position. And admittedly that is no guarantee that all three were working...

    Y380T Engine Specifications

    I've had my Jinma (Nortrac 204C) for a few months now. Amazing how fast the hours accumulate. Anyhow, the manual I have contains specs for the 385 and 290 engines, but not the 380. My question is... Is the valve clearance the same on the 380 as the 385? Northern Tool has told me yes, but I'd...

    Rollover Estimations

    Hello folks. I'll be getting my new Jinma 204 next Tuesday. Yea! I'm pretty familar with my land and have some slopes that are 20 degree inclines. I have no need to travel those areas sideways, but was wondering if there is a basic number out there for the 204 model that states something like...
