    Delco generator

    We know how much I love electrical problems. I can usually get a generator to charge, but I'm running out of patience with this one. Delco 12v, two brush, four posts on the regulator. Which posts should light up a test light when it's running? All I have is my test light, my son has my meter...

    Private message

    Up by my name, there's an envelope where people can send me a private message. How do I send one? I'm not talking about a reply to one somebody sent to me, but a new message to somebody. I've looked all over and can't see where to do it.

    Slippery clutch

    I just never run out of new things to learn. The clutch slipped a few times in my 2-135 last fall when I was chopping. Not actually in the field, but when I pulled out in the road pulling the chopper and loaded wagon and tried to get going in road gear. I started spring work with it and it would...

    Trailer ground

    Is it normal to need an extra ground wire between a pickup and trailer? I took the box off my pickup this week and put a flatbed on it. I had to disconnect the trailer plug wiring to get it out of the bumper, then hooked it back up and put it through a hole in the back of the flatbed. I tested...

    Oliver 1365 pressure plate adjustment

    I know it's a long shot, but does anybody know the correct finger height for the main clutch and PTO clutch on an Oliver 1365, Fiat 640 or whatever other equivalent tractor is? I have an operators manual, but not the shop manual. The internet hasn't been any help on this one.

    Delco starter drive

    Back not too many years ago, you could buy a different starter Bendix for these Oliver Delco gas tractor starters. It didn't use that flat coil spring that likes to break on the originals. What I remember was that there was a warning not to turn them backwards. I bought one once and put it on...

    Mike Henry

    Obituary Psimmer called me this morning and told me that some of Mike Henry's old posts have been coming up lately asking how he was. He said that Mike passed away in October. I don't know how to use this new site, but I'll try to link to the obituary. It says that Mike's wife passed in May.

    1600 rings

    This isn't about finding a set of rings for a 1600 gas, but a cautionary tale. I've got a 1600 with the original 3.5 inch bore. JS found a new set of takeouts for me several years ago at an old dealer. My son has an engine machine shop and ordered a set of rings, but nowhere in the Riley's book...

    Don't like long goodbyes

    Not going to make a big deal out of it, but I just don't think I'll be here much anymore if at all. I just registered on New ag talk. I know some of you here go there too, so I'll see you there. I registered there as Sidneyfarmer. They still use the same threaded display that Classic used here...

    Lab grown meat

    Maybe some of you have seen this TV ad. I had it sent to me. There's a You Tube video. I laughed until I literally had tears running down both cheeks. The little girl is so serious and happy. ROFLMAO Link to Drovers Daily

    Super 55 third gear

    I was just reading in Oliver Heritage about a dealer meeting in 1955 where there was a complaint about there being too much of a drop in speed when going from fourth gear to third in the Super 55s. They said they planned to make third faster in 1957. We've had two early 55s and have an...

    Computer question

    So let's say that when you are setting up a password that you mistakenly click that box that says something like ''Save password to this computer'' or whatever it says. Anyway, the password auto fills. Is there a way to take that ''saved'' thing off or do you have to change your password?

    Oliver tool box

    This was in a CL ad. I recognized it right away as being the same tool box as was on the two model 4 mounted pickers that I had. I don't think I'd have to look too hard to find one of them stashed away somewhere around here. It doesn't seem like they'd have made a special tool box just to use on...

    G1355 2-150

    My heart is still in my throat

    I don't want to ever be that close to a police take down again! I was just pulling out in to the road with an empty chopper box, going back to get another loaded wagon before I stopped for dinner. My wife was going out to the mailbox. I had to wait for a cop car. It was an Ionia County...

    Weedy oats

    I just couldn't get the K2 to clean the ragweed seed out of the oats. We had one darned odd summer. I planted oats the last week of April. They came up and headed out without ever having a rain, then on June 25 it started raining and didn't quit. They stooled out and headed out all over again...

    CaseIH 881 chopper clutch

    Does anybody know how to get that little gizmo with the brushes in it off of the electric reverser clutch on a 781 or 881? I have the shaft and sprockets right off and on the floor and still can't figure it out. I took the two screws out of the cover and have that off. I can see the brushes. I...
