  1. I've never bought an IH cps. I think my current one has over 100K on it.
  2. CPS sensor won't show a code, and they're super intermittent. Swap it out and see what happens. The shut off like the key was turned off tells me it's the cps. Oil or fuel issues typically sputter out, not a quick shutdown. It's possible the idm is going bad, but they typically start to miss and run poor vs a quick shutdown. ECM is a slim possibility, the long WTS light seams odd, but mine will do weird things like that from time to time for no reason.
  3. Pull the heads and look. Pointless to soak it and pry if 1 cylinder is all rusty.
  4. They haven't sold because they're probably grossly over priced. Marketplace has became the place where everyone list junk for insane prices with no real need to sell, just hoping some sucker comes along to buy they're junk. A running 706 of unknown history with 4 good tires is a $4500 tractor max.
  5. I can't see any markings on it, but I can tell that someone holesawed a hole in the hood and then poorly welded the vertical pipe onto the existing pipe that used to pull air from above the radiator. Leads me to believe it was added later in life. I moved the top and the plastic bowl onto my 1256 and changed out the air filter housing to one that pulls from above the radiator, I didn't like the look of the above hood intake on a small 706 gas.
  6. It's a dot rated tube, no way a tiny strap is going to dent it....
  7. I'm 90 minutes from Duluth, I wouldn't waste my time taking HWY 2 across MN and then 35 south to the cities. It's going too be 6 hours of woods and rocks. The only thing cool about Duluth is the big lake, the scenery leading up to it sucks. Take 94 east from Fargo, Biewers tractor salvage is in Barnesville, call ahead they might have what you need. Climbing the hill on 94 east out of the Red River valley from Barnesville to Rothsay MN is pretty cool. Jump on 71 South at Sauk Centre and head for southern MN, then take 90 east. That will get you through the greatest farmland in MN. Lots of small rural towns and no city crap. As far as ND, I prefer hwy 2 on the north side vs 94 on the south side. I'd take 2 from minot to Grand Forks. That'll take you by sprawling devils lake which is a sight to see. Then it's 90 miles from Grand Forks to Fargo, laser flat and WIDE OPEN. I miss it daily.
  8. I've done a bunch by removing the main pump, growing a 2nd elbow and fishing my arm and a 7/8th wrench up there. Then get a pipe wrench on the pin and spin the nut and spacer off. The 826 should have a self locking nut so not too hard to get nut off. The 06's are a castle nut and cotter pin, THOSE SUCK!!! There's an oring on the pin that makes them a bit hard to pull out. I use a long thick screw driver through the cotter pin hole to tighten then back up I bring pedal and pin to machinist to get them turned and bushed. It's a job but well worth it to have a tight pedal.
  9. It's good for anything you want to oscillat separate of the tractor. Think mounted brush hog with it's own wheels, snow blower, box scraper, wide cultivator with depth wheels.
  10. Full tillage here. This thread is about cultivating and post spraying.....
  11. How does a guy disc through standing beans???? I'll send you pictures of waterhemp later this year that doesn't care about "cold hard steal"
  12. Pig weed and Palmer amatanth are 2 different weeds. I myself consider round up good for grass only. Don't know if I used any this year.
  13. You must not have waterhemp. It'll lay on top of the dirt, spit new roots out the bottom of what was the stem and keep right on going.
  14. Maybe I missed the question? I've seen many with no hole in the quadrant cover too.
  15. Another example of people working twice as hard to do something wrong. Just put the tank back on the tractor. just because it holds 65 gallons with 2 tanks doesn't mean you have to fill it full every time. Dump 25 gallons in and walk away.
  16. I've bought parts from Scott, he definitely has an attitude but nothing crazy bad. He did tell me he loves Allis Chalmers so...... Parts were always good, nothing shady with them. He'll let you go look at the trucks if you stop and ask. Last time I was there the parts for a new building were laying there, I'm guessing it's up now.
  17. I see you lengthened the frame like IH did, what did IH do for the hood? Custom lengthened hood?
  18. Can't help you with how many are left after yours but the current highest known 856 is 34319 per the last Red Power magazine list. Yours truly has the highest known 856 custom listed below it.
  19. It's been a good month but we pulled the cane loader off. I've also got a used 282 engine to put in it this winter, along with flipping differential over.
  20. I bought it out of South Dakota of all places. The guy I bought it from got it out of Louisiana. whenever he traveled there to see his grandkids he would haul something home, he had a bunch of hi crop and LP tractors.
  21. I have 11 now, 06/56 tractors and I think only 1 has grease zerks and it's the 806 with 8 bolt hubs. I've been through a bunch of 6 bolt hubs and never seen a zerk. I know our 5088 does not have zerks on the hubs. The left hub made it 8500 hours before failure.
  22. Point #1 so what's your issue then? Seams to me the population has spoken and if they want to play the game of pay insurance to live to 107 or die young they can, it's their choice. #2 seniors paid in, why shouldn't they get to use it? Vastly different than avoiding work to get free state Healthcare. #3 sounds awfully communist to me.....letting the government dictate what free market businesses can do. Ironic you say that considering Healthcare was cheap and readily accessible prior to 08 when big gov mandate insurance "so it could get cheaper because we're all paying".... how'd that work out..... #4 only bolsters what others have said. If you want nice things, get your butt to work. Seams an easy decision. #5 Again ironically tons of people worked a 40 hour week and we're self employed until the .gov got in the health insurance game and then it all went sideways. Seems the easy solution would be for the .gov to get out and let capitalism work. If health care is too expensive, no one buys it, and prices are forced down. When government mandated we buy insurance, that puts a floor under the costs and now they're is no reason to lower prices because everyone is forced to buy. Takes out competition and kills the free market. The government has made a Monopoly out of Healthcare, the exact opposite of what you claim you don't want to happen.
  23. Show me 1 person who's denied health care, like sorry we won't treat you...... This is America, EVERYONE has access to Healthcare. If you wanted to, you could medicate yourself to live 107 years, or you can choose to never pay a dime and risk dieing at 35. That's the facts. You seam to think the American taxpayer should pay for you to live to 107 because you feel it's your right to live that long...... sorry it's not a right. Again, show me 1 person who's been denied Healthcare, not 1 person who thought it was too expensive, I want a person who was told "No, we're refusing to treat you". You never will. Now explain to me why the America tax payer should pay for my health care.
  24. Classic case of the government "fixing" something, and in the end screwing it WAY WAY UP. Funny you admit that it used to be better but then earlier you made this statement, basically saying we need more government involvement. Government needs to get out of the way. "When working pays less than what is needed to buy something that everyone should have then reform is needed."
  25. The individual in question is voluntarily working less than 20 hours a week so he can continue to get free government hand outs. THATS THEFT!!!. You stated "When working pays less than what is needed to buy something that everyone should have then reform is needed." Please define "something that everyone should have" what exactly is covered under that statement. I guarantee you they're is things i need that you don't, why should the American citizens pay to give me those things?
