Some of you may remember when I did my 50 hr. service, that I mentioned shards of metal welded to the filter screen. I didn't take pictures at the time, but promised to post them at my 250 hr. service. Here they are:

I took pictures of some of the antique tractors at the fair today, Enjoy.

I posted a thread here: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/owning-operating/286758-butchering-massey-ferguson.html The GC series is a very capable Sub Compact tractor.

I claimed to have done it, but never provided pictures..........until now. Awoke at 4:30am, drank coffee and woke up a little. 5:30am jumped in my pickup and drove to BIL's house. Dispatched the hog quickly and loaded it on the pickup. Back home by 7:00am and put the Massey to work. BIL...

Supposed to be the best: Plastic Mulch Layer Farming Equipment - Raised Beds :: Rain-Flo Model 2550 But it ain't cheap. This is about as cheap as it gets: That's a TSC 1 row cultivator with discs and shanks from Agrisupply, and u-bolts from McMaster-Carr. And the 'blue' is part of a...

I received this in my e-mail. It was titled: How To Crank A Chainsaw.

So I went to TSC and purchased a 5' backblade. I've been trying for over 2 years to find a good used one. I'm posting pictures of that, and of the lights I installed a couple of years ago(but neglected to post pictures). On picture number 5, you can see that the blade was welded on crooked. It's...

I picked up a TSC back blade. Been looking on Craigslist, newspapers, backyards, yard sales, but couldn't find anything worth buying. Most were 6 or seven foot blades. I needed a 5' and they are rare around here. On the fourth picture, if you look real close, you can see that the blade was...

My battery is getting weak. Looking for suggestions/experiences.

Another Halloween snowstorm. Started snowing here at 2:30 pm. We may get a couple feet before it's done.

Last year I tried something new in my garden. I planted rye as a winter cover crop. This past spring, I cut it off with my string trimmer and used it as a mulch for some of the plants in my garden. Now I'm trying something new, dunno how it's going to work. Saturday, I mowed off the corn...

I posted a while back, as did others, about a hydraulic shudder developing on the GC series tractor. There were several possible diagnoses of the problem. One person said that theirs ended up being an engine that was missing slightly, my problem ended up being a fuel filter. I've put 30...

Pictures of my potato hiller mod were asked for by several people. At the time I had no camera. The cultivator/hiller is at my BIL's house because he plants the potatoes. I used part of a Freightliner frame, U bolts and shanks with discs for the modification. The u-bolts were ordered here...

A friend of mine has a vacation home near me that I have been taking care of for quite a few years now. A couple weeks ago, his brother decided he was going to tackle clearing some of the bank back with a weedeater. I went down to mow the yard yesterday, and wasn't prepared for what I found...

Expect bees to be anywhere. Especially wasps. Lifted the lid off my pond filter(never dreamed of a wasp nest being there), and got stung under my fingernail. Thank goodness I'm not allergic to bee stings, but my ring figer on my left hand is swollen pretty good.

My GC2400 went into the shop on Monday. I fired it up on Sunday to use it, and it was clearly missing badly. Whole tractor was shaking. Even vibrated the screws out of the 'slow vehicle triangle'. I purchased the tractor on 5/7/10, and this is the first trip to the dealer. Supposed to be...

I got tired of dragging the deck under the tractor, so I did it just to see what would happen. The pulley sheilds appear pretty strong, and I figured .......if I bend them, I'll just get stronger ones made up. I put a piece of split firewood on each side of the deck, at the rear, where each...

I was hoping the other thread wouldn't be closed, but I figured it would be, because of the insults being thrown. But with that aside, I was told that Universities were doing the studies on GMO's now. None were pointed out, so I needed to do my own searching. And by Golly I did find a...

acreage............can anyone tell me the acreage on a piece of prpoerty that is.: 125 feet X 1017.36 X 47.47 X 1052.62 ?

I broke my toe this morning while going into my bathroom.

Air supply ok?

I'm going to throw this out there(dunno if it has been discussed before)...........but I have a spare furnace blower............. Seems to me like it would work with a few modifications, and potentially save a person a buck or two as compared to a commercial unit. Thoughts?

I posted something about it on the Kubota thread in reference to someone else's problem, but I'll put it here also. Since it has gotten colder here, I've been having increasing problems starting my GC2400. I have no block heater. Tractor is stored in an unheated garage. I just did the 50...

I saw a thread on here a while back, someone was looking for a Cub Lowboy. I'm a truck driver and I see one on my travels, it's been there for a while now.(over 6 months) It's a 154, I believe. I stopped and looked at it once, but it didn't suit my needs. It has the belly mower, is kinda...

Did my 50 hour service today. Engine oil was easy(as expected). Tranny.........well, I saw something I didn't expect. Several shards of metal "welded" themselves to the screen. I should have taken pictures, but I didn't. I scraped at them lightly with my fingernail, but they didn't come loose...

My brother-in-law, has a tiller that he purchased at TSC to run on his 790 JD. It's rated at 20 to 35 hp. Would my GC2400 run it(using common sense), or should I consider buying one smaller?

I purchased a GC 2400 4 weeks ago, so far I think I like it. But need help..........Thread posted in the Massey Ferguson section. Thanks, Don

I purchased a GC 2400 4 weeks ago. The Hydraulics seem funky to me. At Idle, the 3pt and mower drop fast, but rise slow. At high RPM, they lower slowly, but rise fast. The 3pt rises so fast at high throttle that it almost bounces the back of the tractor off the ground. This can't be right can...
