We no till sometimes if we are getting late in the season for planting due to extra wet conditions. It doesn't work to well for us. Almost everyone that does not till around here works their ground in three year rotations after corn. Work the ground, plant soybeans. Harvest soybeans, no till wheat. No till corn into the wheat stubble. Work the corn stubble and start over again. Have a neighbor that swears by no till, will not work ground, ever. He did a lot of shares for ground, but many people went with someone else after a couple good years, then many years of declining yields. He had one field tiled last year, one that hadn't been fit in 15 years. The soil behind the tile plow looked like it was boulders as a quarry it was packed so hard. But it was only dirt, no rocks. The landowner is a real loyal guy, but he is old school too, and thinks stuff should be turned over very now and then. He used his old field cultivator and dug the heck out of his field that the farmer had no tilled for so long. Looks pretty good this year. Like you say, it works well year after year some places, but where I live, it doesn't. Most agree a 3 year cycle works best around here if that's how you are going to do it.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. 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
