I grew up on Simplicity, my father still runs a Simplicity and an Allis Chalmers. I bought my first house and land in 93 and needed a garden tractor. On a Saturday morning I set out to go look at a couple of used JD's at a nearby dealer. One was 5 the other 10 years old, :O :40: OMG talk about stick...

I'm in the third winter of switching over to switching over to running synthetic in my small engines. The three Onan's and 23hp Kohler have been starting easy and doing well on 5w-40 Rotella T-6.

One more round this morning needed. The Onan's pretty thirsty when it is getting worked. It ran for 5hrs, proba...

We got to+4 from -4 this morning. That's cold for you @JSinMO.🥶 It was a good day to hibernate. @DavidBarkey we ended up with about a foot, don't really know because the last part of the snow blew around so much. But with Tuesdays it's knee deep. We don't get lake effect so looks like nothing till ...
