McDonalds: "Would you like fries with that?"

The Old Tractor Co: "Would you like a complete rebuild kit with that?"

>It does sound like fuel problem, most of those carbs need rebuilt anyway at
this point
>You always want to be VERY nervous about "the pony motor just needs a crank
seal" as this translates to "the pony motor is displaying typical wear and
will require having the crankshaft reground, new bearings, and probably
rings and a valve job while you're at it".
>I always hate when someone asks me for a pony motor seal as I know what
they really need
>As Brandon and Kevin know, there's nothing like see that big old long hood
stretching away in front of you when you're operating an R,80,whatever. The
big diesels are different than any of the other tractors
