Facts an figgurs vurus real life. I spent the last 3 days on a Cockshutt 540 going full bore with a pipe loader thankfully much stronger than it looks. This snow is now like concrete laced with lead. F162 flathead, 1 gallon and about a pint, every hour. And I can't really get it to rev any higher if I needed to. My fergies with Z120's to 145's get an average of a gallon an hour no matter what they are doing. When I was doing hay with gas- old beat up Allis Chalmers gassers... after a 12 or 13 hour day- I don't think I ever poured in more than 2 five gallon jugs. I would go neck and neck with a neighbor with a variety of IHC diesels, and he always had to put in as much fuel in them as I did gas. Some years gas was a buck less than diesel too... I heard that Nebraska test people figured nearly every manufacturer put in a tank that would work a pto at 640 for 10 hours, and an hour or 2 extra fuel to get home etc. So if a tractor is not flogged to death, doesn't have burnt up valves etc, if it runs out of fuel before supper, something's wrong... A few months ago I needed to change a sediment bowl... the tank was over half full... it took nearly half a day to drain out! So how could it burn faster than pour? Your modern little oriental diesel should burn 2 gallons between breakfast and midnight snack....

Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
