I bought an older 300 King quad from a guy. He said he had just done the rings and some other work. Anyway as soon as the thing warms up it starts smoking horribly. It almost instantaneous from no smoke to lots. Kind of a gretish stinky smoke. Anyone had one with a similar problem or know what...

My JD4020 (100HP Beast) has no 3 point hitch. It has a FEL but alas nada in the back. Based on the following 1. 3 Point impliments are easier to come by 2. 3 Point impliments tends to be the size I need (okay perhaps my tractor is a mite big for 31 acres) C. tow behind implents tend to be large...

This might be a stupid question but do all tractor PTO's rotate the same direction?

I have a tow behind roller that is 5 feet wide. I want your guys opinion on modifying it so instead of filling it for weight I can attach it to my FEL and push down on it. The biggest reason I want to do this is lack of turn around room when I am rolling roads What do you think let me have it...

I have a 68 4020 and haven't ordered an operators manual yet. The tractor has a Powershift Tranny which I love but I can seem to find the diff lock. The repair manual discusses one but Alas I cannot find it. I can kick power side to side with the brakes but never have both wheels turning...

The wife and I bought 30 acres about a year and a half ago. The old couple who owned it before us had pretty much stopped maintaining for quite a few years so a lot of the pasture has overgrown with Aspen ( avery fast growing weed tree like a poplar) and brush. At present I have a JD4020 and...
