    Took one of my breathers apart, got the mesh out, soaked it in gas, then lit on fire. That cleans things up rather nicely. have seen that method talked about on the Orange board many times but don't remember seeing it here before.

    Ain’t going to do that gas cleaning. Don’t want to blow my eyeglasses off my head cost me to much . Pressure washer with purple power , or purple power, In old roaster pan on turkeys  fryer and boil mesh it clean .

    That’s neat.  The ultimate question is though, what is a better garden tractor, the cub or AC G. 

    A guy in the full time nursery business all his life told me they are better than a cub. he had 6 of them up until recently . So that only comparison I can go by . You want better details I’ll ask him for you?

    Anyone done brakes on a cockshutt 540? Happen to have a parts list/schematic? Got this tractor coming in for brakes soon. They’re under those round cover behind the running board

    Brakes don’t need no stinken  brakes ! put the bucket down on the ground. 
    By the way, why is that cockshutt that color , is Peter maxx up north again? Broke my rule never criticize a ,other man’s tractor ! Forgive me .

  4. I think the cockshutt styled sheet metal rivials ih in my opinion . 20 s 30 40 50 are the set up . If you have a golden eagle well that’s the show.

  5. She got the mix from Aldi ( this was pretty good when your hungry ,got to watch the cheap mixes sometimes she said (dry)but it was cheap, I don’t give a hoot ,my job to gobble it ,pillsbury,Betty Crocker are more consistent she says . 

    some recipes only use one egg for fudge. 
     

    she also uses (sprinkles ) chocolate chips when she takes it out of the oven, spread s them when they turn glossy soft. 
    don’t drop any chocolate on the kitchen tile or she will scold you. 
    best I can ay it. How’d I do ?

    You may want to look at the air cleaner.

    Those are getting old enough where I have seen them plugged and also rusted out holes in the long pipe from the air cleaner to intake.

    When was the last time you changed the oil in the air cleaner?

    If you have holes, or bad hoses, you will probably find dust in the intake and that is not good. 

    These can rob you of a few horses?

    Really good suggestion ,have to check it out

  7. Archived post might help  you all , it appears mine was much more abused than any of what I see  rockshaft  ,lever, spring s 

    I made some modifications  added rivet to contact lever for anti bounce 

    there  a difference in control spring c and super c is thirteen turns Farmall a and super a is 15 . I made the mistake order ,could only get 1500 rpm .

    My nephew got this one and it was delivered today. I've never seen this style fuel gauge, it's not in working order .... anyone have any information on the brand of it? Like new 15.5-38 Firestone field and roads . Looks like a cushion hitch adapted to the drawbar. I think I have a fast hitch for him . Power steering is one finger factory setup. I'm only slightly jealous 😁
