I'm gonna drop a bit of a load on ya. Some of your topics need a little bit of a response. 1 You mention that you quoted an online source for information, and it was wrong. When wrong information is handed out, it's a problem for a long time to come. I know you believed what you read, but it was wrong none the less. If the person you answered was like me, he charged right out and tried it, only to find he fried something!?? Dang I hate it when that happens. As for spending other peoples money,, sometimes it is the best answer. When they wanna dig a shopping mall foundation with an N it's a bad idea, more money is a good idea, when they wanna lift 1000 lb. bales, it's gonna take a bigger tractor. As for read the manuals, or check with the manufacturer,, THE BEST ADVICE I EVER GOT!!! Helpful comments are not the same as facts. Helpful maybe, but not facts, and not always right. I can't even begin to speak about their moderating practices, nor will I try. I feel competent to speak on this topic, because we've farmed our farm with N's and the like forever, we bought our first N around 1965 I started using it the day it was delivered. Since then I've learned every short cut to keeping one running to get the job done, I've never restored one, probably never will. I've learned how to work on them, and patch them, and baby them through a season... none of that qualifies me to answer most of these questions. Please don't get offended by my remarks, I'm only posting a personal experience. I've charged the thunderstorms, and whacked at trees. LOL Just ask Dell, Zane, Clause, and a few others that we've lost. My good fortune was that I attacked them with questions, and got shot down with answers! Proveable answers, and they hurt when they sent my logic into flames. I read two other boards as well, and I've got hero's there as well. I've learned alot on all of these boards, All I'm saying is don't get so thick skinned that you fail to absorb the REAL, AND TRUE information that is available. Alot of your advice is top notch, and I'm certainly not about to tell you what, where, or how to post. Here's what I've learned about the learning process on any board of this type. Post what you know,,, but fer cryin out loud, be sure you KNOW WHAT YOU POST. If ya ain't done it or can't prove it, then make sure you know it's so. I refuse to post the advice of people I trust, until I've done it myself. The only reason I decided to post this, is that I took a 2 month break, after getting my feathers ruffled, and I missed alot of good info, that I had to go back to the archives to retrieve. Don't let this happen to you,, LOL Ron
