Seemed to take forever but I am a full three weeks ahead of last year. Dry as dust out there and I had my hands full keeping the seed drum drive on the Cyclo 800 clean so the drive clutch didn't want to skip. Miserable fine dust on everything. Anyhow, while I kept my eye on that the family ran seed back and forth as needed. I didn't keep track. Get back to the shed and pulled the tarp away and there are a bunch of unopened bags there plus what is in the hopper still. I checked to see how much we bought and it looks like only one bag per five acres got put in the ground. I know we were right on track with the first small field and I think we were pretty well OK on the second small field. But I think the last field I did may come up a little light. Thinking I wait for the rain this weekend and in a week or so I will know WHERE things went wrong. In the meantime I will try to find WHAT went wrong. If it is limited to that last field, maybe I can trade in the long season bags for short season and replant. Otherwise, the blackbirds, turkeys, deer, crows, mice, woodchucks, squirrels, and I will be disappointed in the years crop.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
