Gary: I am not intending my post as kicking you. My first experience with TA happened in 1955, when my dad bought a new Farmall 300. In the years that followed our farm probably logged 75,000 hours on 5 TA equiped tractors, and we only ever had one that failed. It was the 300. In the years since 1955 I have listened to hundreds of people criticize TA. If I count the griping I've heard here at YT the numbers are in the thousands. My question is, when are people ever going read manuals and learn how to maintain and operate a TA. You are certainly not alone, by your experience, hundreds have done the same. Then they have the nerve to criticize TA, when indeed the problem is people. I will give you credit on that one, you didn't criticize TA. You can look through the archives here at YT, there has been countless posts on the do's and don'ts with TA. Obviously few people read them, as is the case with the manual. No Gary, my mission was not to kick you but rather, jolt you and others into reading up on TA. I may seem a bit abrupt, however it has been my experience two items intice people to learn more. Those are hit him in the pocket book which is going to happen to you, and the other making it a double wammy, "being abrupt". I do hope I have been of some help, and believe me I do know a bit about the school of hard knocks, great way to learn, but expensive.

They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
