    gator 650 smokes

    I was changing oil and filter on my 07 jd xuv 650, and poured about 2 1/2 quarts of oil in. Then I realized it needs only about 1 1/3 qt. I did run the engine for about 30 seconds to get the oil in the filter. Then I drained the excess to the proper level. Since then the xuv smokes from the...

    Jaws for pulling small trees

    Here in NoID we need to pull small trees that grow on the roads, pastures, hayfield and places we do not want them. If you cut it low it leaves a small stump which is an annoyance for walking, driving and riding horses. We typically go with a tractor and choke chain attached to the loader, one...

    4320 Hourglass blinking

    When I switch my gauges to hours, something is blinking in the top right corner of the display. It looks like an hourglass picture. If it is I'd guess it is a reminder of oil change. I did change the oil at 200 hours but how do I reset the blinking hourglass? I could not find it in the manual.

    DIY PB: buy parts or buy kit?

    Switching Fuel Tank from Diesel to Gas

    I just obtained a 200 gallon farm tank from my neighbor. Way too big for me but better than nothing. It was used for farm diesel. I would like to use it for gas. What do I need to do to clean it, rinse it, before I put gas into it?

    Connecting old pin type PTO implements to a new tractor

    I have a number of older implements with PTO that requires a pin hole in the PTO shaft on the tractor side. I recently upgraded to a new tractor that does not have the pin hole in the PTO shaft.

    H Cylinder Repair

    One of the H cylinders on my Bradco backhoe is leaking. Last time I needed to repair a cylinder seal I brought it to a local shop and paid $70 for the repair. I was thinking that I could do it myself. Here are my questions: Where can I get the repair seal/kit? How do I determine which seal...

    How to make road ditches

    I need to make better ditches along the roads around my place so the water runoff does not take my roads every spring. What are the best tools for it? Is there an implement for a tractor? (I do have a snow plow, box scraper, backhoe.)

    'New' Member

    \'New\' Member No complains here but it is funny when it says 'new member' registered in 2002, while there may be 'elite member' next to name registered in 2004. Now I know it is by posts submitted but it looks weird when it says 'new'.
