Haw , i am still learning as there is something new each day . And the day you stop learning you have dirt in your face . I try and apply what i have learned over the years from making shell we say SPARE parts some times from unintentional reasons and then the days of building and engine just to see how far it will go before it goes yuck yucko then sifting thru the pieces to see what let go first , then figure out a way to fix the weak link . When it comes to the 706 i have had every nut and bolt out of them over the years . Plus between myself and a couple other guys i use to run with i am suprised that there are any 706 gasser left in IN. or Ill. as we bought a bunch of them , from dead row finds to good off the farm ones . I bought a bunch out of the dead rows and brought them back to life and sold them just about as fast as i could get them in and out of the shop . Most of them got FIELD tested before they were sold and i put a warranty on them , Never had one come back for warranty and if it did come back it was in service for two three years or better. Ya learn from talking to the OLD guys as i would talk to the OLD guys and find things out that i did not have and answer for . Just like the valve problems on the newer gas engines weather it was a 4 cyclinder or a six . I would say i have a MASTERS degree and working on the PHd on 706's . just like this problem with the pistons , two ways to solve it (1) 93 or better REAL GAS (2) forged pistons that don't break the bank Then you could do what ever you wanted with it have no problems . Myself and two of my close friends use to pulol 4x16's with them doing all the plowing on three farms , yea i know we only plowed up to two hundred acres between the three of us a year but we hand no problems None do a tune up once a year do reg oil changes with the low ash Case I H oil and run them hard. They were cheap horse power and the wright size tractor for a smaller farm that would start in any weather with a good battery . Had the power to run the grinder mixer do the plowing run the chopper . Now we have trouble just running the haybine with out melting one down .

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
