    Oil & Fuel  Fuel gage question

    My gage stopped working the other day. Finally found the plug into the cluster had come loose. Pushed it up and it worked again fine. My question: Does a clip or something hold it in place that fell off or something. I didn't see it but I didn't really look thoroughly either.

    Anyone with knowledge on Differential locks?

    Hi all, I think for the most part of the summer that my differential lock was stuck engaged on my tractor. I noticed when mowing the ground was getting ripped up more than normal. Yesterday I oiled everything real well and the lock is now free. It moves in and out alot better than it did. I'd...

    Head lights died

    I was using my BX2230 tonight with no troubles. I started it up and turned my head lights on to darkness. When I turn the headlight switch on the dash lights and rear lights work.

    Pond on the property line?

    My neighbor comes to me with an idea. The lowest spot on the property is on the line between us. He has a pond but it's on a higher spot. He says we've been thinking about filling the pond in. And with the low spot being where it is, maybe we could dig one on the line and use that fill to fill...

    Home heating with Propane...OMG!!

    Just called for my propane pricing for this coming winter. I get on a secured plan which averages out my cost over 10 monthly payments. $1.849 for 601-1000 gallons. And if I have the money laying around to buy in advance then it's $1.799. Just last year it was $1.55 and the year before that I...

    Here's a new one for you

    Here\'s a new one for you I'm trying to mow with my Craftsman. I engage the deck and neither of the blades move. The belt is routed the correct way but the belt just spins in place. Could the belt be stretched out too far to work. Another question. Could the pulleys engage but possibly not far...

    Books Forum

    Just an observation here..... The books forum hasn't had any activity for 3 months. Some people want a new forum to discuss other issues. Does anyone feel this would be a good area to replace it with something else?

    Hard Times

    My company on Friday laid off about 20% of it's workforce. I was given an offer I couldn't refuse to stay on board. Really got me by the back side for the moment. Don't know what it's like out there in the real world but things in WNY aren't all that good. I wonder sometimes how my kids will...

    Credit Card from 6.9% to 24.25%

    It happened to me yesterday. I've never been late with a payment or had any issues before. So I call and ask what the deal is. She tells me they're looking over my credit report and I've crossed some threshold for my income to debt ratio. I said I don't need a financial consultant thanks but if...

    Amsoil alternate?

    I bought a used snowmobile this fall. The other owner mentioned he ran nothing but Amsoil in it. It's a Yamaha sled and they make their own brand of oil called Yamalube. The Amsoil is $30 / gallon vs $18 for the Yamalube. My concern is blowing the motor (liquid 600cc). Should I stick with the...

    Home heating w/Pellet Stove

    I bought 4 years ago a pellet stove. Figured with the cost of fuel it wasn't a bad idea. I don't know too much about them other than they burn hot. What's the effiency rating on them compared to say a 90+ propane furnace. I have 4 tons of pellets delivered to my home for $159/ton each year. The...

    I've finally gotten my property to a point where I can work with it some. The problem is before my house was built it was old farm field. I've moved it all down and keep it low as much as I can. I asked a farmer down the road from me to come evaluate what would be necessary to smooth it out or...

    New Home Building

    As I've mentioned a few times before I've built a new home. Generally the experience has been satisfying but with a few bumps along the way. It started with the framing being less than standard. When they slap walls up you must be involved to pay attention to detail. Some of my walls had entire...
