I'm probably opening a can of worms here, but I saw the thread on Low Sulpher fuel and thought I'd ask. I've been using Home Heating Oil as Fuel. Is that low or high sulpher? I installed a fuel pump in the bung hole of my 275 gal tank. I put a high quality pump in that is fully sealed so when...

All, I'm finding the exhaust on my tractor to be a little on the loud side when running for long periods. If I were to insert a baffle something like what you see on Harley straight pipes would it have negative effects on performance/tuning? Has anybody tried a third party muffler on the...

Hi all, I realize that diesels can be smoky on startup when cold. It's still very cool here in PA in the mornings. My tractor smokes quite a bit and it takes some cranking to get it going. Once it's been started it then starts the rest of the day with the smallest blip of the starter. Is this...

Minot 20 hp - Original problem was foaming hydraulics fluid: I flushed and refilled the hydraulic system and cleaned the screen. This was a great learning experience and I'm glad I did it. Only problem is it's still foaming out of the filler breather. I think I must have damaged a seal when I...

Here's a great website that shows pictures and descriptions of servicing the Jinma tractors: Tractor Outlet Helped me a lot draining and cleaning the hydraulic system.

This is after draining the factory stuff. When you flush the system with Kero do you fill it with kero and run it for a couple of minutes or do you just pour it through the filler of the 3-point lift and let it drain out the bottom? I don't want to do it wrong and damage something. Thanks

It\'s a gusher! I have a Tractor Supply Minot (Jinma) 20 hp. Yesterday I was moving a bunch of dirt from one place to another with my 3-point dirt scoop. I was working the machine pretty hard and suddenly I noticed hydraulic oil was frothing from the 3-point lift filler cap. After inspecting...

Just bought the Minot (pronounced Jin-Ma) 20 hp from Tractor Supply Co. It's a nice little unit. I'm not a heavy user so it should be fine for me. I put a 3-point scraper blade on it to start because I need to do some grading. I understand that the Koyker 140 FEL will bolt right on so I'll...
