True story. I went to put some round bales in one afternoon on one of the coldest days last winter with my Oliver 1600 gas and it quit on me. I knew the gauge was showing low,but it wasn't totally on empty. I took the cap off and looked in the tank. I could see gas up on the curved part in the bottom edges. I took the line off the carb and couldn't get anything to run out,so I took the sediment bulb off. Keep in mind the gas won't freeze even though the temp is below zero,but it'll give you frost bite right now. So nothing came out of the sediment bowl. I took the whole assembly out of the tank,of course gas wanted to run out the hole,so I had to hold it back with my finger. I could blow through the sediment bowl assembly. I put it back in,put the line back on,walked to the gas barrel and got some gas,put that in and it started right up. Trouble was,now it leaked gas around the neck of the sediment bowl and no amount of tightening would stop it. I had to get a whole new assembly for it just because it had some gas in it,just not enough to get up in the neck of the bowl and make it run.

I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
