Like I tell my buddies, I quit farming once before and I can do it again. I have fed big round hay bales in the same lot for like 7 years and NEVER left big ruts or got anywhere near hung up and could mow in the hay storage lot in the spring BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT NOT THIS YEAR Its the mudiiest wettest softest mess Ive ever seen, rain all fall n winter and the ground NEVER FREEZES. I guees its wayyyyyyy cheaper on my heat bill however. I just got done feeding and come purt near burying my AC D 15 and if it werent for the tire fliud n wheel weights and other weights I hung all over it this fall I would have had to doze it in a ditch where it sat. I was thinkin it was gonna take my buddys Four Hundred and Two - Zero Model JD Tractor with dual to pull me out and that would have been awfulllllllll embarassing to have to go n ask. Told the 'first wife" Ima gonna sell some cows next week cuz Im also runnin short on hay cuz its too wet n muddy n soft to ever use the bale ring so theyre wastin half the hay (I hate cows). A trip to Florida Flywheelers next month may lift my spirits and by golly next year God willin Im heading south n staying half the winter. I feel better now after rantin n ravin lol Yall take care n God Bless Ol John T and all (a lil frustrated)

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). 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.
