    Dampener? Lead typically indicates bearing wear. Is the tin high also? Most bearings have a lead/tin overlay. Any other high wear metals (copper, iron, chromium, etc.)?

    What info are you seeking? Try this website www.yesterdaystractors.com. This site covers items for sale, discussion forums, parts, etc. for all makes of antique tractors and farm equipment. Good luck! P.S. There are likely others but this one is a good place to start.

    Ron, Thanks for the explanation and pics. BTW, now we know another way to "pull your chain".

    Based on my little knowledge of 8V batteries....my thought is you need an 8V charger. The 12V will overcharge and the 6V will undercharge. I have no experience with 8V batteries. Do you have a 6V battery that you can install? Disclaimer...you can try using the 6V setting but be VERY VERY careful.

    I may look for a cheap hotel a few miles away that is not on the shuttle route. Then ride a bicycle to and from the show. Hopefully they allow bicycles on the grounds. Otherwise I may have my own show at the Poverty Hilltop Farm.

    Timmy, Now that you mention it, I do not remember working with any pump other than RBosch for the E7 (mechanical or electronic). And you know how all trucker stories start...."you are not going to believe this but....".

    Yes there is a difference in RBosch and AMBAC. Mack used both depending on the rating. I believe all the "electronic" pumps were RBosch.

    Wow, lots of Macks at that place. Jim (Green Dash)...this is in your neighborhood...Washington, PA. Road trip!

    Mike, I still have the JD110H that I bought new in 1966. It is disassembled and I plan to restore it. The 110H pictured is all original and I bought it (around 2000) from the owner who lived near Roanoke, VA. The 80 dump cart is also original and it came from IL. I own four (4) 80 dump carts...all original.

    Thanks Brocky! I am one to make reservations early (sometimes the rate increases closer to the dates). I am about three (3) hours away and will plan to arrive on Wednesday afternoon. Tom....thanks for the suggestion. I could rent "sleeping" space in the trailer and then I would stay in a nice hotel (and get some sleep).

    Fred, Thanks for the help. This is what I get...Holiday Inn $117 (not $112), Best Western $116.xx (not $99.99(, and Sheraton $140 (not $115). Also the show page only shows the dates, May 28-30. Is 28th setup and 30th departure? Hours of show?

    I looked at the ATHS website and found nothing about the York show. Does anyone know the schedule of events (arrival, departure, etc.)? I also checked the hotels listed and none show the rates printed in Fred's attachment. Do I need to call the hotel to get the rate or is there a code (I tried ATHS)? Are there showers on the grounds? If so, maybe I will "camp out" in the trailer. Even if I need to pay $25 to stay on the grounds, it is definitely cheaper than $100+ for a room.

    Sorry, mine is 300 PLM 450211B.

    What is the part number of your injection pump? I have a spare pump (history unknown).
  18. farmer52
    Try ordering a parts book from your local Mack dealer. All you need is money and a serial number.

    I would be interested to know more about this truck but it is too far away. I am sure if it is legit, it will sell fast. Hmmm, a single axle V8, not your everyday cup of tea. weasel....sounds like a road trip.

    jitterbug...doodlebug...they are all buggy! bottom pic is a 1933 Worthington being restored
  21. farmer52
    There was a guy riding around Macungie the past few years with something similar. I believe it is called a Jitterbug (cut down Ford model A?). I will stick with my 1966 John Deere 110H garden tractor. Been thinking of loading it in the trailer and taking it to truck shows.

    bbigrig, Do any of your show pics include "booth babes"? Inquiring minds want to know.

    If you are using Windows 8.1 (maybe 8 too) and Internet Explorer 11 you cannot use QUOTE or PASTE functions. Been there done that.

    At least it is on top of Vvvvvvvolva.
