No she ran fine, just wanted to do some routine maintenance. It is a gear model so I will pull it at some point if necessary, but I want to re-check my bleed process and make sure I cover all points. I'll take a closer look at the filter tomorrow now that I'm home. I'll post a picture as well so you can see what I see. Again, appreciate all the help.

Todd, don't really have any advice that hasn't been suggested, but if you need photos or anything else from my 1920 just let me know. Bill C

pulling is way easier on the starter...

It takes two to pull, being short handed might cause an issue. I have to always do things by my only self.

JC,

Clamps, tape, coat hangers, and a good magnet have helped me make a third hand at times.:laughing:

I've seen more than one truck crawl across a field with no driver and a guy in the back busting hay bales for the herd. Not sure this would be advisable to pull a tractor though.:shocked:

Since you pull it in gear, how are you gonna stop it if it fires off and starts running up your backside? Pullin' is the easy part.

That's what i was thinkin' Jim. Would make a great U-tube video though. :laughing:
