Good thing I didn't have 40 more acres of oats to do or I might have strangled myself. On the way home from elevator with empty truck this morning,it starts missing and I barely made it home. After first hopper of oats I was smellin antifreeze. Got out and water pump on combine was leakin like a seive. Went got one put it on. Two more hoppers and was done about 2:00. Raked what was cut on Saturday and started baling straw. First bale endgate opened before I got it tied,so had to unroll that one and bale it again. Naturally I plugged the baler trying to rebale. The twine cut arm spring broke so the tie arm was catching the cut arm and shearing the bolt. Did it three times before I figured out what was causing it. So it took all day to combine 8 acres and make 6 big round bales of straw. And you know what its still hot out there. I quit for the day. Gary
