new to list

[ldp]

I'm new to the tractorbynet list and am finding my way around the chats, etc. I'm assuming this is the Ford section of the listserve. I'm having a big problem wince I just bought a Ford 1600 diesel. I figured I might be in toruble the first time I heard', well, that'll be pretty hard to get parts for'. Ahem! I'll say. About as hard as Chiese arithmetic.
Anyway.....if anyone could help me find a muffler for this rig, I'd appreciate it.
Dealers price is outrageous.
Also, if anyone could/would care to spend time chatting with me or e-mailing back and forth regarding this machine, since I'm brand new to tractors, I'd appreciate any time you might have to offer me.
Thank you!

Larry, this is the "right" forum for your tractor. I don't anything about the Ford 1600, but would have thought a muffler would be relatively easy to find. Do you have a Tractor Supply Co. store near you? If so, they should be able to get it. And if not, I would have thought nearly any auto muffler shop would have, or could make up, one to fit, but maybe not.
