It occurred to me recently there are situations wherein the time associated with attaching my fx85 winch to my tractor to pull out a log or other object makes me just forget the job. Ditto getting chain or wire rope and attaching to back of tractor and pulling. What about a Warn or other brand...

Compared to my Tc40da my 1920 which has roughly the same engine (I think both are Shibs) the 1920 sounds like a Boeing 747. I mean even with ear plugs and headphones my ears were ringing for three days after brush hogging 4 acres. I’ve replaced the muffler to no avail. Clearly the exhaust on...

My fields over the years have gone from really nasty with little trees and big thick weeds to a nice grassy meadow. The brush hog I’ve been using for the past 13 years doesn’t cut grass really nicely. Does anyone make a finish cutter blad for a brush hog? I do have a 6’ 903B NH finish cutter but...

Hi, recently while lowering the two stabilizer legs on my 758c (on a 40DA) I scratched the chrome inner cylinder. This in turn did some minor rings to the internal o-rings and now the leak down on one side is pretty annoying. I saw a guy on YouTube repair a similarly damaged cylinder by slowly...

Does anyone know how/where to dispose of about 30 gallons of contaminated diesel fuel? In NY the place that takes used motor oil won’t take diesel. Is there an environmentall friendly way to burn it in a pit fire, for example (that actually sounds a bit dicey).

Update-hired a young freelance diesel mechanic who spent 5 hours going over everything and even he’s not positive it is 100% solved but the root cause appears to be air leaking into the fuel system. He put a new brass flat sealing washer on bleed screw and tight ended all the other connections...

I have 2 NHs a Tc40da and a 1920. The latter takes an outer air filter with “fins” and costs a lot more. Any idea why these two tractors that are actually pretty similar (obviously one is hst) have such differently designed air filters? Are the fins of any value? Thanks in advance!

Help! I just changed the fuel filter on a 1920 and then after an hour of trying to position the bowl back in found a 1” spring at the bottom of the bucket into which I let the diesel to drain into. I have never seen anything about a spring under or in the fuel filter but to my dismay saw on...

Anyone have any comments on this story on Vice news today? Not just JD but NH and others too. Presume it is only the big units (I.e, not cat 1 machines). The power this dealer has over the Missouri farmer is disgusting! Why not make the repair tools available to the owners? Are these the new...

I have two 5 gallon, unopened buckets of New Holland Ambra hydraulic fluid that have been in the barn safely tucked away for 10 years. Has this degraded or become less efficacious? I really don’t want to buy 10 more gallons at today’s prices…

Yesterday, my stupid boyfriend convinced me to get in my tractor and pull on a series of chains attached pretty high up on a dead tree that was leaning towards the power lines. I wanted to wait and put in a snatch block or pulley to give myself a little angle so it wasn't going to come down...

Hi all you tractor guys, i have a very pressing question to which I need an answer very quickly. I have TC40DA New Holland plus a bunch of implements ranging from a CSR 84 snowblower to a 7308 BH Post Hole Digger 60-inch tiller and various others. The thing is, it is very difficult for me to...

I am thinking of getting a steiger panther to work on as a hobby and toy. Yes, i am serious. I wouoldnt do all the hard stuff myself (not that strong and i model so need all my appendages) but to me that tractor is like WOW: burt reynolds, brad pitt, and clooney all wrapped up in a massive...

Dear CNH owners, I have posted here a few times and get excellent suggestions and feedback so i am turning to you now for comments on the following bid. I called the place that appears to dominate the tractor transport business (every website seems to actually lead back to the same home page)...

Ok boys, get this: my little tc40da new holland tractor has been in storage in Wisconsin for more than two years. I put diesel stabilizer in her but no charger or anything on battery. I bought a new battery at napa per advice on this site. Got to the storage facility ready to take out old CNH...

Hello everyone, I'm sorry for asking such a dumb question and i sure hope you can help. I did search the forum first. In a nutshell: 1. My tractor in storage for nearly two years. Battery 99.999% sure is dead. 2. Need new battery cuz i have to start it this Thursday 3. Am at my mom's house...

Hi, I've had my chainsaw ( Husqvarna 395XP) in storage for nearly a year and a half. I put Stabil in the gas back then but am going back to get it this spring. It cost me quite a bit (nearly $1,000) and I want to ensure it will still work ok and is not ruined or something. My intuition tells...

Hi, I hope this isn't a dumb question: due to divorce, I had to store *my* CNH TC40DA tractor for the last 16 months. I did have stabil put in the diesel fuel and filled the tank to the top. She is in a secure storage facility, completely away from the elements etc. If I were to go there in...
