Earl,plug them ports!!
I bought one off <font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font> a few years back and it showed up an oily greasy mess full of crud and w/the hydro valves missing as well as the fittings.

Leaked oil all over the postman's trunk. Neither of us were a happy camper at that point.
And would you believe it, the shipper blamed it on his daughter of all people, for not packing it better!!
It's basically a door stop for me until it's disassembled and cleaned up.

Huh, well it's been sitting open for who knows how long now. Guess I'll be looking through it before it gets used, same thing on my 1450 roller, that one I had planned on it though. I'll probably spray it with some oil and put it in a plastic bag for storing.

Earl F. I recognize that pump. David's right about putting covers over the holes. Right now I'm going on week twelve of the sinus infection and it is just too wet/muddy to do anything right now.

So you know what happens when someone is not having a good day!

 

[eford]

I like the fact it's a 100, but, I'm confused on what in the world was the purpose?

Reminds me of digging my buddy's 125 in trying to get a 122 out of a guys backyard.

Charlie,

That pic took me right back to Matt Schwartz at PD2.....he spun that little 70 down to the axle housings several times and we had to lift/dig him out! Pizza cutters and soft Sandy clay were the culprit, but Matt hadn't learned when to push in the clutch either!

 

[digger]

I think it was the shoes at PD3, LOL

100 plowing- You have to learn somehow. It's is so easy to criticize people. I usually try to help people out if they are having trouble. Just be glad they are running an old cub cadet!

Nate B.
If you knew the story you could comment!
I KNOW the story.
You wanna compare the number of people I and others here have helped!
We'll take that challenge!!!!!!!!!

You being so close to the cities, I can fully understand your thinking!

 

[nbodin]

Digger- Never said that you or anyone else didn't help anyone. And I don't think it needs to be a contest.

"You being so close to the cities, I can understand your thinking!" Wondering what this comment means??

Looks like Ethan's 125 Hydro is missing a few key components there!

 

[sblunier]

Yup, it was PD3 in Indiana......long time ago!

 

[qgood]

Hey I was working on my carb today and the choke is stuck close?? Dose anyone know why that would happen?

 

[ekincaid]

David-such as???????

 

[dschwandt]

Must be the angles of the pictures.
Can't tell if there is a cylinder and lift arm there or not

 

[rchristensen]

David S. I agree with you, reminds me of the time the post office asked me to come down to the main distribution center to pick up a package. I knew I was in trouble when they brought it to me in a plastic bin and it smelled like hydro fluid. Still beats me how they were able to read my address with the cardboard soaked like it was.

 

[ekincaid]

David/yes sir alls there I have the chain on there instead of the lift rod because I like the "look"better more steampunk
