[AT] Eat your heart out

[Al Jones]

Wow, I wish I could find a farm fresh H that looked that straight
today......

George, a good friend of mine is a JD collector and I have seen what you
talk about--sometimes one good heave of the flywheel will start it right
up, other times, it takes a tug from another tractor to get it going!!

Phil,

They were worn nearly flat across, much like the ones I took off my M.

That was a typical J.D, at of least the ones we had. It was impossible
to 
tell whether it would start on the 4th pull or the 400th.  The adults
had 
given up and the kids pulled it the last 300 times and had it running.
:-) 
Note the worn spot on the grass

George
