Ron, I'm an educator and I don't stand for BS from any of my students. Sometimes I feel like an island, but I don't let up. It's some parents that are lacking in example, moral character and fiber doing the damage, which then breeds back in itself. Politicians and business leaders in our country say it's the public schools that are failing, but THAT is BS! Just go to school for a day and see what we have to deal with--it would wake you and anyone else up pretty fast. Some days it's scary to see how "infected" these kids are from high pressure advertising, M-TV, violent movies, "attitude", self-indulgence and gratification and their whiny parents that challenge the discipline system. The key is parents who give a rip. I teach study skills to the bottom end of our HS population. Deep down these kids want to do well, it's just that no one close to them ever expected or demanded them to do so. If they could grow up on a farm I'll bet things would be different and you know it too. My job?--keep plugging away at it and be happy with the few who come around. My $150.00 worth...

On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
