    Need New Holland part # Sba322531670

    I have tried every website - no one has the part - it has been discontinued. What are the alternatives? Tried bush-hogging this weekend - constantly riding the clutch in thick brush. Any suggestion would be appreciated ( I was out of the country for a while - hence the late response)

    Centrifugal vs diaphram pumps

    What kind of pump am I supposed to use? I used a water pump to wash my tractor and restricted the flow to increase pressure - ruined my pump. Now if I did that to my garden sprinkler pump - it will not ruin the pump. What is the differnce in pumps?
