I work in the fall with this neighbor, or maybe I should say neighbors as there are two of them in their operation plus one hired man. I have worked with them for probably 15 years now and we generally have a good relationship. Where we differ is they do repairs the cheap fast way to get back into operation quick. I repair things the right way even if it takes a few days.
They do know I have teeth and I have had to show them a few times to get them back on the straight and narrow. This tractor is used on their auger in the fall and it augers probably 150,000 bushels. It's set up with rear throttle and PTO controls along with extra lights in the right places. They know if they upset the apple cart with me they could lose 1000 acres of custom harvesting my crops along with that tractor. This tire plugging thing isn't the end of the world, it's just frustrating that one of their quick repairs ends up falling back on me to get it done right. By the way, I talked to the hired man today and he 'just can't remember this tractor ever having a flat tire'!!!

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
