Just wondering if any one out there has converted thier cutting torches from acetylene to propane? and what would be needed to do it? My outfit has Harris regulators and the torches are Victor. I would need to cut as well as use my brazing tips. Propane is quite a bit cheaper here than...

I could use some help pretty bad today. I have a Case 580CK gas tractor that has been giving me lots of trouble with the charging system. I had the generator rebuilt in the fall and got a new regulator at the same time. All was working fine when the other day my battery went dead and froze...

Have a question about the exhaust smell on my very old Kubota B7100 tractor with well over 3000 hours on her. It's been this way since I have owned it.....4 years now......seems that the exhaust has a strange smell to it..........well it just plain stinks actually. It's not the normal diesel...

Just wondering if anyone out there knows what the lift capacity of a model 33 loader is on a 69 Case 580CK. I lifted off four 3000lbs pallets each of stove pellets this summer and it handled it just fine. There is no information I have been able to find as to this and thought someone would know...

Just wanted to throw out a question here. I have been wondering if there are any advantages to having a portable bandsaw in addition to a sawzall. Have been trying to cut some pretty thick 1 1/2" round stock on a 14" chop saw and it just does not work well, not to mention the sparks and...

Hope someone out there can set me on the right path here. I have a case 580ck tractor with an alternator generator combined unit and a voltage regulator for the charging system. The battery has been draining down very slowly for sometime now and I finally did a system check with one of those...

I have a question about filling the back tires on my Case580CK. Checked with my dealer and looks as if I need about 47 gallons each to fill them to 75%. Problem is the Rimguard stuff they use is $2.75 a gallon and that does not include getting it there. It's getting expensive as you can see. Now...

Hello, I have a 12' x 8' flat bed trailer with brakes that weighs 1200lbs. It has a 5000lbs rated coupler on it with a 2" ball. The trailer is rated at 7000lbs and I plan on carrying 4000lbs of stove pellets on it a few times a year. This puts it over the coupler rating as well as the reciever...

Hello, Does anyone have the specs for a 1969 case construction king tractor with loader? Just bought one and trying to track down more info. I lifted a 2400lbs pallet full of stove pellets the other day and it did'nt even blink. I would guess it's about a 3000lbs lift capacity but not sure. I...

Is there anyone out there that has a Nortrac 40hp? I have been looking at the specs of their loader on this tractor and they say it will lift 2470lbs at full height. What I need is a chinese tractor big enough and with a loader strong enough to lift at least 2000lbs. What I'm doing is unloading...

I have an old b7100 with many hours on it. Right from the start, when I bought it, the exhaust pipe had black soot in it that sometimes shot out when running. I have since started using power service in the fuel and it has vastly improved the performance of the engine. It does not burn oil, only...

B7100 ROP\'s I hope someone may direct me in the right choice here. I have a 1979 B7100 gear drive without ROP's. I did not give it much thought until almost rolling over a few times this year. Now it seems like a very good idea to put them on..........the sooner the better. Well, I contacted...

Hello, I have a question that I realize is pretty hard to generalize but here it goes............. I own a 1979 B7100 tractor with an FEL and back blade, had it for almost a year now and don't know what I would do without it. I have not had much experiance with diesel engines and what to...

I have a B219 loader on my 1979 B7100 kubota tractor. I have had at least 640 LBS in the bucket and it lifted it about 5 feet off of the ground without a problem, even though the loader does lift higher, it quit going at that point. My question is can I make this loader lift more by increasing...

Have a 1979 B7100 I bought used several months ago. So far the tractor has done everything I have asked of it and more. One problem I have is the PTO, when I pull the lever to engage there is a knocking sound that they tell me is either a bearing or a tooth missing from a gear. Sounds like a...
