Back when I bought the 446 I met a man at the auction that is a fairly serious GT collector. We have stayed in touch since then. I called him this morning and asked if he had a set of tire chains I could buy from him. He said he was short on time today but told me to stop by on my way out of town. I got there and he said “I just picked up these tires and rims with chain’s already on them, take them with you and try them out. If you like them we’ll figure something out later”! Just shows once again that tractor guys are some of the nicest people around! :worship:

He apologized for the chains being mis matched, I said beggars can’t be choosers! Can’t see what that would hurt anyway. I’m looking for traction, not beauty!
I’ll have to put them on later and get ready to try them out!

It’s been awhile since I worked the garden I’m hoping to get everything planted this week if the weather cooperates. I had a lot of grass and weeds growing and I didn’t really want to walk behind the tiller that long so I did this.

This is not the optimal set up but I had to try it! This disc it a little big for the tractor, and I had it set so it would really cut so it was a harder to pull than if it was set straight.

The 446 spend a lot of the time with the front wheels off the ground as we went across the garden. The blade isn’t enough weight up front for this.

I don’t know if you can see in the background, but it was doing a pretty good job. Then it happened. All at once it stated dumping copious amounts of smoke and oil! The engine sounded fine but I shut it down fast just in case.

I tried to get pictures but I’m not sure you can see what’s happening.

The only thing I could see so far is the rubber hose from the crankcase tube is shot and was just hanging there.
I unhooked the disc and started the tractor back up. It fired right up and sounded fine so I drove it back up to the shop.
I was working it pretty hard, but I don’t think I did any real damage. Im thinking I’ll replace the bad hose and see what happens! :42: :106:

Just as you were having some fun eh? I had oil coming from that hose on my 226 once. The hose was in bad shape so I replaced it, and the dip stick was not air tight so I fixed it, then all was fine.

Hope it's something simple Jeff!

BTW I saw someone in the Case group on Facebook selling a Case tiller for 250 in South Haven MI. I know it's far from you but I also noticed that shipping in your country is way cheaper than here.
