Skidding logs I have a General 720 post hole digger I use on my Massey 165 Tractor. I the take the auger off the arch, hook up a heavy duty chain as a choker to the arch, and use the arch as a logging arch on my 3 point. I have moved fresh cut Bull Pine, Tamarack and Doug Fir logs a little over...

I use John Deere Fluid from North 40, Has a "J20" application. I use it in my Massey 165 and JD Dozer, trans and hydraulic. Works very well for me and no performance problems with thousands of hour on the machines.

I have been using John Deere 50 Plus oil in my tractors and dozer for years. A little more expensive but it is really good oil for all diesels. Has a long life too. I believe in it.

And they say we are conspiracy nuts, I just assume anymore that a mic or camera is on about anywhere I go. Can't get a veterans discount anymore at Home Depot if you don't have a cell phone, I don't own one. All kinds of scan this or that and your right about SIRI, lol.

You need PRI-D to treat your fuel. It will keep diesel for years if you treat it. It can also restore diesel. I will send a link and you need to read the information. It is an amazing product, complete fuel system treatment and lubricant. TheEpicenter.com Emergency Preparedness Food & Survival...

Sounds like they have a bacterial problem in their tanks. The by product of bacteria in Bio-diesel is water. You need to get an additive to treat your machinery and fuel tanks or the problem will continue. I use PRI-D that I get at: TheEpicenter.com Emergency Preparedness Food & Survival...

I was born before the last half of the last century. I remember Desotos and Dodge cars built like Battleships. It isn't the trucks, it is the cars that keep getting smaller and smaller and made out of plastic. Those old Packards were built like a tank. Pickups got bigger but not relative to how...

Try some John Deere "50 Plus" oil, even my older equipment of all brands likes it, and it will stop excessive wear to your cam or lifters like some of these other oils will. I think Rotella T is the only oil with zinc in it for the lifters and cam.

I use John Deere "50 Plus" oil in all my diesels. It has a longer life than the others and is superior in performance, I wouldn't use anything else.

Worked in the woods for many years when I was younger. We always used good bar oil. It is tacks and adheres to the bar and chain giving better lubrication and longer bar and chain life, also oils the tips better. In the winter I cut it a little with kerosene. Saws run cooler and just perform...

I would suggest Rotella 15w-40w as it has zinc. If you use the other it will eventually flatten you cam and wear out your lifters.

I have a Massey165 that I wouldn't trade for anything. It always starts and runs real well. The Perkins is a kind of dirty engine so I pressure wash it often. Don't plan on your brakes stopping you on a dime. I use it for everything around the farm and in the winter it is chained up and pulls an...

I have a Massey 165 tractor. I use an old Brewster Rotary blower I bought for $200.00 and refurbished. It is a 3 point pull behind, it has only 2 moving parts. My PTO is live and I can blow 2 feet of snow about 20 yards off the road. Lot of snow in NW Montana too.

I have been using John Deere "50 Plus"15-40" oil in my JD 450c dozer and Massey 165 tractor for years. I wouldn't use anything else.

You would be better served if you used PRID in your diesels and PRIG in gas. https://theepicenter.com/emergency-power/fuel-treatment.html On the website click on Power, then PRI. Read through it, I have used PRID for years in a John Deere 450 and a Massey 165, PRIG in all my gas engines...
