Bought a 48" Gearmore rotary mower for peanuts and I quickly learned why. One of the blades is loose yet the nut is completely rusted solid. Ive been spraying this thing off and on with PB Blaster for over a year now. I finally gave it another good go today and snapped my breaker bar! (Had a...

I have a Ford 1910 that Id like to have a fuel gauge on (not easy for me to see the fuel level in the tank). Are the aftermarket caps with gauges any good? How do I know which will fit? Your advice appreciated, thanks

Hi all, I'm a total newb and using my box scraper for the first time. It has flip up scarifiers but I can't figure out how to get them up out of the way for the blade only. There are two pawls for it to rest on and both extend down. Any advise? I'm also missing one scarifier. Think I can find...

I'm already imagining that the answer is no but figured I'd ask anyway. Tractor I bought came with a 5ft tiller (also a disc but its not in functional condition). Is it at all possible to prepare ground with the tiller alone? I want to make seed beds and loosen soil to make mounds for trees. I...

Hi all Just picked up my first tractor ever, a 1984 Ford 1910 with 1600hours. Few questions: It has some trouble starting. I let the glow plugs go for about 15sec and then crank it (been warm outside 50-70F). It sputters and smokes and wont start usually. Let it rest 10 sec and the second time...

I am shopping for my first tractor (on a budget). I know little to nothing about tractors. That said, I checked out a Ford 1910 (1984 with 700hrs). Seemed ok but was hesitant to start. Cranked and smoked for a bit, then rested, then cranked again and started. Once running sounded fine and no...
