I bought that other Yamaha Moto4 Saturday. It ran like a top,played around with it that day. Sunday it wouldn't start. I took the plug out,no spark. I fooled around moving the plug around on the side of the block to get a good ground,finally got it,put the plug back in and it started and ran good all day. Monday,cold as all get out,wouldn't start again,but I didn't have time to fool with it. Last night after supper,still wouldn't start. No spark. Tried three plugs,nothing. Went to town this morning and got a new plug,still no spark.
I called the big Yamaha and everything else store,they said they couldn't get it in for two more weeks. There's another little shop south of town,so I loaded it up and took it there. The guy said he was even farther behind than that,didn't really want to take it on,but he went out and climbed right up in the back of the pickup with it. I told him I had another one for parts. He took the seat off and pointed out a little box. He said intermittent spark,it's usually that box. Told me to go home and swap that out before I paid anybody to work on it. So I did. Started right up! No doubt saved a few hundred bucks and a few weeks down time.
I had the same kind of experience when I bought a different baler two years ago. It was just like the old one. In fact,only 75 numbers difference in the serial number. The first time I used it,I was back at the house three times swapping parts off the old one,but haven't laid a wrench on it since. Next time I saw the salesman who sold it to me,I laughed and told him it was a darned good thing he sold that thing to somebody who had one for parts or he probably would have gotten it back.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
