Yes this is the best tractor forum there is, and I don't want anything to happen to it. However, I consider YTMag's suppression of info about Brand X to be a restriction on the exchange of information, which is what this forum is about. I have been reading this forum everyday for 4 years or so. When I found out they wanted contributions I began contributing $20 a year or nearly 3 times the recommended amount, others have contributed more. I have manuals from Brand X, Brand Y (which I think are the ones YTMag sells) and Brand Z (Case/IH) Brand X and Brand Z are equivalent, with Brand X having the original style covers that closely resemble the original IH manuals. Brand Y manuals are not as high qualty as Brand X and Z the print is darker and the drawings are not as clear. The BrandZ parts books are bound, not loose leaf, I prefer to put the pages in plastic to keep my grubby fingerprints off of them. I see nothing wrong with recommending a product and giving my opinion about it, others have different opinions and are free to state them. Also before YTMag began doing this, I answered several posts, some were rather lenghly (I type slow, and have to make a lot of corrections to be readable), mention brand X somewhere in the post and the whole post disappears. I don't appreciate that. I also note that the forum for site questions is now email only. That is where this post belongs, but if I put it there only the YTMag people would see it.

In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
