Haying went great, thanks in part to you guys. The H charges good, the wheels are at 81" & y'all should have seen the sand in the carburetor when I got to it. Have no idea how that got in there. Can't find a point of entry, either. The rest of the carb is disgustingly clean, though. Wierd! Threw a rebuild kit in it anyhow, while I had it all to pieces.
The H will need a set of rings 'n' sleeves within the next couple of years, at least if they hold out that long. She had a hard time keeping the conditioner going in medium-heavy hay & snorts vapor out of the breather like a small steam engine (note: cloud under tractor in 1st pic & behind me in the 3rd pic). It's the hardest job it has to contend with & I only cut about 3 or 4 acres.... So here's hopin'!
Thanks again, Mike
P.S. I did use the carb off of my old & running H for the hay job & overhauled the new (to me) one yesterday. I figured if the other one was already on & dialed in, leave it alone.
