rushed home from work and started polishing the block on the ole 766. got her all clean and started fitting the new sleeves. everthing checked out good. popped the rods off the old pistons, checked everything over, mounted up new pistons. started putting rings on. get the first five done, open up ring package for number six..... .BROKEN RING!!!!! !!! no new parts till wed. so here i sit in front of the computer ranting. was planning on it running by sunday so i could cut my way over due hay. now i gotta go rent a tractor cause the hay can't wait any longer. i bought a disc mower this spring to replace my sickle. the disc mower only fits the 766 and i sold the sickle. life goes on.....

Man it sounds like you have my kinda luck. I hate to hear your trouble. If we were closer Id loan you a tractor and come help ya get your hay in. Course tomorrow Im going to work some pastured out wheat ground that should have been worked a long time ago. Thats how it goes when you work in town 30 miles away from home and piddle farm on the side. Good Luck on you 766 project.

i can identify, i hauled 12 loads of fill dirt for a customer,paid 50 a load [ he paid for dirt] 600 bucks right? now diesel was 250.00 and i blew a tire so figure 280 for it, and now i discover a broken spring, which cost 300 for the 3 spring pack, and i got to take monday off, lost wages, and drive 200 miles each way to get the thing and have the truck ready to roll on tuesday, now remind me, just why do we go to work?
