There is another good way to control most weeds without mulching but only lasts for 6-8 weeks, but you can reapply when weeds start showing again. If you have a feed mill in the area that grinds cattle feed, most have corn gluten pellets, a by-product of processed corn for ethanol. I have a...

I gather them in the Fall, and usually a couple good rains and most stay in place in the pile. Last Fall we had a dry spell and some high winds, so I set a lawn sprinkler on top of the pile for an hour or so. That's the first time I had to so that in the 10-12 years I've been doing it. You'll...

Probably won't help for this year, but I use leaves 4"-5" thick as a mulch. Great for weed suppression, and by next year will be broken down into compost to turn under and build organic matter. Retains moisture, yet sheds heavy rains. Redworms and nightcrawlers will feed on them over the summer...

Glad you're happy with it. I too was very happy with the one I got.

Sweet tractors..!! I have a '67 140, and a'57 130 both with FH.

I think several of the major manufactures made the 2-way, or as some call them hillside plows in one unit, and improvement over single bottom L&R bottoms which worked independently of each other. I have 2, 1 bottom plows hillside plows that are single point Fast Hitch for my 130 & 140...

LOL..., it may look like yours but I got this one for my Mom for Mother's Day back in the mid 70's, per her request. Something to set baskets from the garden for canning whatever she was picking that day. Found it in the barn when I moved back to the homeplace here. Handy little sucker...

I'm going to start another 50 here soon for a Fall crop.

I put 180 Cabbage plants out Sat. evening. Would have been 192 if they would have all germinated. Had to go to plan B setting them out. Too damp to disk, and use my homemade transplanter, so used a 2" bulb auger to make holes. Used my David Bradley 2-wheeler to mark out rows, then added...

Actually, Ajax cleanser works lot quicker and is cheaper. My buddy told the story of their Ag. teacher showing them that trick on a small Briggs engine they were going to tear down and rebuild in shop class. Started the engine up with the air filter off which smoked badly. Picked up a good-sized...

For my purposes, Seafoam works great to keep the fuel system clean. I got that suggestion to use it either here on this small engine forum, or on another tractor forum. I couldn't figure out why my 2 Wheel Horse 310-8's were hard to start in the Spring, then later through the Summer if they sat...

Not sure if you can save that file to your phone, then download to a thumb drive, via the USB port, then view, or download to your computer or not. I know one of the guys in the tractor club did that with a video he'd taken of us planting potatoes last year, then gave me the thumb drive to...

If ever the ex. valve starts sticking again when running, get a small container of Marvel Mystery Oil. Add prescribed amount in the crankcase, and in the gas. Briggs engine from the mid 70'swere notorious for the exhaust valve sticking when it got hot, and under load. Back when it came in a...

The bull pinion gears are accessible by removing the brake housing and cage, but the repair manual says to only remove one side at a time. Taking both out at the same time will allow the pinion drive inside to drop. I don't know if the 530's upgraded the fasteners to "bolt" the cages to the...

Here's a link to manuals for the 530 Case CK. Case 530CK - Manuals I found it years ago when I bought a Case 310B, a lot of the info is also the same so found it pretty helpful. The easiest way I found for finding parts for these older machines, is to use the OEM part number. Copy and paste...

Ground temps are finally raising here with the air temps getting warmer. For giggles I got my ground thermometer out, and compared to the OSU site 35 or so miles away. I was quite surprised it was 20º warmer than what their site said, and had just been updated within 15 minutes. With the sun on...

Frost seeding works best for me on pastures. I use a regular seed spreader called "Seed Easy". made for grass seed, up to Cereal Rye sized seed. It holds around 25 lb. of seed. You can do an image search, and I'm sure numerous pictures will show up. It can be used on any tractor with a PTO...

Here too, but supposed to be sunny tomorrow, through Sunday. It'll be nice to get some sunshine to warm the ground temps. Right now it's bouncing right between 48º and 51º over 24 hrs. Some direct seeds may germinate but going to grow slow. I planted peas 2 weeks ago tomorrow, and about 1/3 of...

Welcome...

Wow..!! Been years since I've had one done.

If I didn't mention it before, the easiest way to find parts is to use the OEM part number. And the part number you need is 356356R96. I went ahead and did a search using Google and got 1,280 hits...

Good deal, glad it went well.

I hear ya'. about 10 years ago I mowed hay down, with the prediction of 10% chance of rain the day I was going to bale. I lived 20 miles from where the hay was. Brought up the NOAAH weather site to check the forecast. Still predicting 10% chance. Happened to noticed a small red area on radar in...

Most times I'm puzzled why someone insists on rebuilding a carb, whether the poster, or commenter mentions it. When in reality it may just need a good cleaning, or float readjusted. Only one, an MT John Deere out of the entire 30+ tractors I've collected in the past 40 years needed new throttle...

I'd try them, if they are starting to show signs of sprouting, you don't have much to lose but some time and effort. If where they were stored was a little cooler this year than in the past, that may be the reason they are sprouting slow.

You might try here. Used Mower Parts | Adams Small Engine He may at least have a used one but has a lot of NOS parts too. We stopped in about a month ago, inside the 50,000 sq. ft. building it is packed with nice used tractors of many brands, NOS parts of many kinds, good used engines etc...

Depending on your location, some elevators do, and some will sell you the amount you want, not just by a certain sized bag full. One of the best places I've bought seed was the Seed Center Welcome to The Seed Center - The Seed Center He's located on S.R. 36 West of Delaware at Ostrander. He can...

Peas starting to P here..!! First one I saw up on Thursday. More yesterday after that warm rain.

That or just needs adjusted but have no idea how to do that. My experience with them was from a memory 40+ years ago. If you plan on keeping the tractor, it'd be a wise investment on finding a service/repair manual for it. Something more than an I&T manual. They are OK for the basics, but tough...

I took a close look at where I planted peas, beets and onions last week, still nothing up. We got about 1" of rain on Friday night/Sat. morning enough to get things going. I suspect cool ground temps. are making things germinate slow. Maybe today's sun will help. Need to take my new ground...

It may be a little more than you care to spend but find you a hand sign painter. Back in '78 I restored this 1947 McCormick-Deering OS-6. It had a paint brush paint job over top of the decals, but you could still see them. Couldn't find decal kits for it back at that time. We had a sign painter...

Exactly what I was going to mention. We had 310a's with side mount sickle bars we mowed roadsides with, that had a mid-mount pto to drive the mowers. They had 2 stage clutches so the mower would be running before forward movement. If I remember correctly, the rear pto shaft was factory deleted...

Not planting potatoes here at home this year due to running out of rotation room but did get to plant 300 lbs. of potatoes at our County Parks Smeck Historical Farm Park near Baltimore, Ohio, using my little Farmall 140, and Champion potato planter that was converted from horse drawn, to Fast...

You bet...

I'd check that rod, at least that would be 1 easy fix. Only knowledge I have on TA's is my 656 has it and has never caused any problems in the 25 years I've owned it. I do know they will free wheel when in the low side going down hill. I've read in forums where many have been torn out, using it...

Got the garden rolled over last week, love that little hillside/2way plow..!! Temps hit 85º with a nice breeze the next day so got it disked down the next evening, after turning the "kids" out on the new Spring grass for a couple hours. Called for a good chance of rain on Sat. but it stayed 50...

From high rpms to idle should be nearly instantly if under no load. The 504 uses the C-153 engine, and governor is pretty much the same one used on the C-123's, so I'm a little familiar with them. Open this link to show an exploded view of that governor. CASE IH | Schematic, Manuals...

One of the causes of backfire is having a wire, or wires 180º out of rotation making it fire on the exhaust stroke, with the exhaust valve open.

Check in your area for independent small used equipment dealers that also does shop work on tractors. Most more than likely carry aftermarket parts like A&I and can order you one in. Smaller independent tire shops that deal in Ag tires probably can too. If you like to visit the Amish...

The easiest way to find parts is to use the OEM part number, and do a search on a good search engine. I have the best luck with Google. I took the liberty of doing that search and got quite a few hits. Looks like prices vary widely from $20 & change and up (Forest Depot on the first page)...

Depends on who's doing the work. If you have some mechanical skills and tools to do the job, you can save some money. Taking a quick look, a clutch kit (pressure plate, clutch disk, throughout bearing, and alignment tool with many for a B run form $152.00 to over $400. Many cost around $250 +-...

OK, gotcha', I was thinking you couldn't get the pulley to budge at all on the crankshaft. But, yes, that pulley is all one piece what you're looking at. So again yes, the front end will need to be removed to get it to come forward to get it off. One of those things you look at and think...

Not sure how much it will help, but here is a picture of the crankshaft pulley on my old 310B w/148 spark engine. I do recall that nut and what appears to be a large washer behind it was all one piece. After finally getting that off, I was pleasantly surprised the pulley slipped right off. The...
