We have all been there pete

I’m definitely not an expert, but maybe you could try some pig putty to plug the hole. Love your videos !

It’s the same with my H but it won’t stop because the carburetor pin is stuck open.

i was worried for your safety. didn't want anything to happen to you or the tractor after all the work you put in.

Do you think you will get a third cutting in this year

😂😂😂😂

🥴

LLMMAAAOOO!!!!!

👍

Pete got u with the dad jokes too 😂

That's great wisdom!

@@lukedesselle2491 John Deere finance vehemently disagrees. 😆

I share the same view on vehicles as well. I just bought a farm, could you suggest a good Ol’ truck make n model I could start searching for to work on the farm?

@@xkitchick An 83-87 Ford truck with the 6.9 idi diesel and a 4-speed is pretty bulletproof, if you can find one without a lot of rust that is hahaha

@@xkitchick I'm a little biased since all we use on our farm are ford's. But I would say anything ford 98 or older If your not doing alot of towing I would get a gas F150 or F250 because if you don't do your own work finding places that work on diesel can be difficult and is usually more expensive to buy and repair.

Best value pickup out there in my opinion: Ford F-350 4x4 between 1987 and 1996. No carburetors, it has the desirable Dana 60 solid axle up front, Sterling 10.5 rear, and either a 351 small block, 460 big block, or diesel option. If you get the automatic, add a large aftermarket transmission cooler. If you have a manual, just make sure you change rubber mounts and U joints when they need it. They'll last a long, long time. Manual is always my personal choice, and I have a NP435 granny 4 speed in my daily driver F-350. Next good value, and some will argue this, would be the 1999-2002 Superduty with the 7.3 diesel, or any Superduty with the V10, either the earlier 2 valve or later 3 valve. Neither have variable valve timing to fail. The 2 valve 5.4 isn't terrible, but the V10 gets the same gas mileage as the underwhelming 5.4 and does better pulling trailers. There was a spark plug issue on specific years but it's not a bad fix. Just make sure it's already been done before you buy, unless you know how to handle it beforehand. There are good GM models but I don't feel they have the bang for the buck of the Fords I have listed. If you go GM, the early 2000s 6.0 gas trucks aren't bad, nor the older ones with a 454 or 8.1. I strongly dislike the IFS and 4x4 system on them, but for just a plain old 2wd or minimal offroad use, they're fine. The 6.0 gas is a good engine although less low end power than the Ford and GM big blocks. If you're gonna pull heavy often, you'll want the bigger engines. I own several 460 engines, and have owned the IDI diesels and the computer controlled Powerstroke 7.3. Dad has a 2001 Powerstroke 7.3 with 350K miles on it right now. Driven and worked on many Ford and GM vehicles over the years. don't let anyone tell you a 460 is a boat anchor. Chances are they've never changed the spark plugs on one. I have a 700 hp 460 in my drag car with a stock block and crankshaft. They can take some abuse. Good luck. Just remember gasoline costs a whole hell of a lot less than payments and fixes on modern unreliable diesels. Stop by any of the diesel forums if you're interested in knowing what's terrible and what isn't. Just DO NOT BUY A FORD WITH THE 6.0 OR 6.4 POWERSTROKE!!!! This Ford guy says stay the hell away from them. Great transmissions, great trucks... terrible emissions controlled diesels that are very expensive to fix. Hell, stay away from any computer controlled diesels other than the Cummins 5.9 or Ford Powerstroke 7.3 and you'll be a lot happier.

@@ChevyConQueso wow!! Thanks so much!!! Can you come work on my John Deere 5400? 😁

And the whine of tree frogs too. Love it.

I kinda miss my '72. Gas tank behind the seat, fun stuff.

I know what you mean I use to hate having to drive the tractor or cat to help my dad, now I look back at those times spent with my mom and dad working on our little farm and I miss that so much especially spending time with my parents.

@@andyrobinson339 I put a pint of gas in the tank to get the tractor started. It was gone by the time I got to the field.

@@andyrobinson339 Gas leak + hot engine + spark from starter = trouble... Ask me how I know! Burnt dads JD 300 utility to the ground! Had the fire out 3 times with extinguishers, but that damn leak kept it flaring back up... Took him 15 yrs before he finally admitted he had the wrong starter on it and it always sparked up even when not trying to start it...

lol

Go Dawgs!

I agree. Have used it on a couple old Chevy pickups over the years and it works great.

People do it different we do it the 3rd or 4th day

I love that sound!! It's one of the nice memories I have of driving it when I was in high school. Dad made hay off of a field about 3 miles away, and when I got home from school I would take the MD & baler down the road & start baling.

@@JustaFewAcresFarm my Dad had an old cultivision A and it made the very same road sound. Loved it along with a lot of other memories you bring back.
