    My Backhoe needs and engine rebuild

    If it was coolant, wouldn't that make the oil milky? Not if it's going into the combustion chamber, it turns it into vapor it as the engine is running and smokes white. That doesn't account for over filled oil though. Blow by is from the compression leaking past the rings. SR

    Old Bush Hog leaking

    I have an old rotary cutter that I have been using grease in the gear box for MANY years, and it gets used hard. I just buy cheeep tubes of grease and put it in a half tube at a time, it works perfectly. SR

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    A few months ago, I bought a tractor that I considered an excellent deal. I bought that tractor because the price was low and it appeared to be in very good shape, and it was a brand name, quality made, small "farm" tractor, and it was a perfect fit for what I had in mind for it. And that was...

    TODAYS SEAT TIME

    My job today was to run this load of cherry through my planer for a customer friend, I hired my nephew to help me, and we got started by staging everything, It wasn't too bad of a job, my planer has new blades and really eats the wood, I had a knot partially plug the chip outlet so it...

    I was on a rotary cutting job today, and seeing as how it didn't take all day, when I got home, I went out and cut around my deer blind some, I do this every year; it keeps the brush down. SR

    Bottom seal replacement on a Woods BB720X rotary cutter

    First of all, he's not asking about taking the blades off! Secondly, IF he was, it's obvious you have never taken the blades off a Woods bb720!! SR

    dumb question about HST

    Gear changes are a lot less frequent with the HST plus transmission, since you can shift on the fly. I can shift on the fly with my gear drive too, up or down as the gears are synchronized. SR

    Bottom seal replacement on a Woods BB720X rotary cutter

    Nothing is needed inside, the seal goes in from the outside. Just make sure the replacement seal is the newly designed "triple lip" seal. SR

    HST or gear-drive?

    How do you not do all that shifting short of just staying in a low gear for the whole job and driving around at a snail pace? I don't have to use the "lowest" gear, I can just drive into the pile at or just above an idle, then add rpm as needed (foot throttle) when traveling to dump the...
