    Advice needed on new tractor- CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

    Jamie......if all else fails.....one more thing to look at would be adding an extra gasket or two, or even a wooden gasket, between the carb and the engine block. ANYTHING to steal away engine heat from that carb. Can you get me a picture or three of the carb/engine/air cleaner assembly??

    Best All Around Dog for TEOFTWAWKI

    I have two Labs and a Golden Retriever at the moment. The Golden is a little more high maintenance(hair care) but she is very intelligent, actually TO smart for her own good at times! You will also have to go a long way to beat a good Lab. They will retrieve whatever you ask/train them for...

    Flower Pot Smoker

    Your temp will NEVER get to 700 degrees if your truly smoking. If your at 700, your COOKING! The highest I have EVER had my smoker is 300, and that was when I was still learning. 99% of the time is stays around 225 - 250.

    Water Authority to Inspect Property Tomorrow!!!

    :lol: The last inspector that came out here was the county building inspector. He was here for a final occupancy inspection on my new shed I built a couple of years ago, just before I had started the greenhouse. The only time he got nosy with me, was when he asked me why I had put the garage...

    Green Acres... What to look for in a property?

    I'd also recommend talking to the neighbors closest to the property your looking at. You'd be amazed at how much you can learn from a good neighbor, PLUS it gives you a chance to see if they might be a BAD neighbor!!!
