I was thinking glow plugs, I will see if they crack easy.

that would depend on balance, where the weight is and ratios, as well as tread pattern.

no one touched an old inter diesel ? anyone ?

Hi All, I have a old 414 that is outside, we had lot of rain this winter, anyway just went to see how the old girl is as have some chores, and found the intake filter full of water, so naturally it has made it's way into at least some cylinders. Of course I want to get it going ASAP as I do...

Yeah, I get what your saying if it is a violent rollover, I guess ppl down here do not drive around so fast, an accident is just that, but some people are either brain dead, careless, reckless or a combo of any or all 3. I have been in car accidents with belts and without, at far higher speed...

Well my tractor was made in the 60s, another the 80s, both have roll bars, neither has a seatbelt & I do not want one either. With a seatbelt or without, your arms and legs could still be crushed, without a seatbelt you would have to jump in front of the bars downward path I imagine to get your...

The roll over protection really is not a bother, I do have some trees and low lying stuff and it helps remove some of it, you just have to watch out for what springs back, some branches do not break (do not ask me how I know). Seatbelts on tractors, mowers, etc etc is overkill IMO, anyways...

All you ppl with thin folding things, can't do that on real tractors :cool:

That is why you never have just one :)

Hello all, Anyone with any exp with Iseki tractor ? I have a slow leak in a few spots, anyway need to top up hydraulic fluid. Seems there is a dipstick in centre console area behind shifter and a bolt type plug nearby, however the tube you can fit in there is a bout a quarter inch ...

Do not tell my 2 40hp tractors what they can and cannot do, you may be surprised. if with low gearing, even a 2wd old Inter tractor can pull a 7ft chisel in dry ish clay, on a slope mind you with rock in ground too....lol the limiting factor is weight/traction and lift ability of the...

Anyone who has jumped a car of just a few ft ramp will know how bone jarring it is to hit the ground. That mustang jump would have hurt a lot, and results to the car are what you would expect. I think I watched too many of them movies when I was young, I am not sure how my old dodge dart even...

It is a doggone shame that there is ! What about shows like the blues bros....etc etc I always thought wrecking cars like that in shows was a bit, well, lacking of grey matter......but I am too practical ! lot of things done for fun is a big waste, like, urmmmm, monster trucks etc

They are too heavy and damage gravel roads, this is why they have extra tax at sale time :)

Yeah, pretty much, I can think of many downsides too if I want to pick holes at this stage, but like your dads advice, I will roll with it, prob because I have an electrical background and understand all the aspects. Electric is not without cost or pollution, people need to ack that, but short...
