    My boss had a john deere lawn mower tractor and it had a pressure fed oil system Kawasaki engine it ran for years cutting a large lawn never used a drop of oil. Way better then it had to be for the mower was not that expensive. I have husky blower, chainsaw, pole saw they are over ten years old the saw is a pro model and it cut a lot of hard wood. But I have the pro model stihl climber saw that is just a rip roaring little saw that thinks it's twice as big as it is.

    30 years ago I would help out a friend of mine he had a small car repair shop and if he took something in that stumped him I would get a call. He used napa parts almost exclusively the stuff was very good back then but the old story today the part quality has dropped to the point I shop anywhere but napa.

    1958 F.W.D. I use to go to Bethlehem steel to work on a cat dozer they had. That was the longest building I ever saw it was back in 1974 or 75.

    I bet that montgomery wards garden tractor would bring a good price from a collector these days. I don't think I ever saw one at any of the engine and tractor shows I was at.

    Sears was a one stop shop i have a reissue of an old sears catalog and it is amazing the verity of goods you could buy from them. Back in the day my gram said you didn't travel distances like we do now so you ordered your stuff from sears or Montgomery wards.

    My uncle Andy believed in everyone got involved I was to small and weak to throw the bales up on the trailer so I drove and god help me if I ran into a woodchuck hole and lost any bales off the trailer. A lot of good memory's were made on that dairy farm for a young lad.

    I always checked if the brake canisters were leaking anytime there was an air leak problem I had fittings made up I could block off the lines it really helped diagnosing air problems. the treadle valve placement was a real pain on some truck manufactures. I liked Mack you could take up the floors and get to things, the other trucks were made by people that never turned a wrench

    That should pull quite well I wanted to buy a 285 or a 300 for my B but the engine was stuck from setting so I ended up with a 260 hp. and what a difference driving the truck down the road.

    If the cab assembly is pretty good you can really get it set up to your needs without to much fuss and money.

    when you turn it all the way one way or the other you want the spindles hitting the stops before you run out of steering box travel.

    I graduated in 73 I went down and registered for the draft and was told your on your way to be drafted okay I didn't get drafted but unlike those that went to Canada or used political help to get out of going I would of went because I am an American citizen and it is the right thing to do. I am pro American as it was until the first of this year now things are really screwed up I hope the genie can be pushed back in the bottle.

    I bought the air cleaner from Berry over at Watt's and it went on with a new manufactured mount looks about the right size not to big. I like it

    And some had two big nuts you would turn and the newer ones you push in the adjuster and turn it.

    What a crock of sh*t as my mother would tell me when i would try to explain why i did something stupid again. And it definitely pertains to this brain fart of an invention.

    Those two made a lot of sense about that Nasar driver's bullshit.
