Way back before the turn of the century may buddy and i were plowing on a friday afternoon , we were both young back then and singal , be both had dates lined up for the evening but he and i wanted to get in a few acres before the dates . My date was for 9:30 when my girl friend got off work and his was at around 10 that evening . He and i ran Farmall 450 Diesels and if ya wanted to not crack a head you allowed them ample cool down time . I left the field at around 8 and left the farm around 8:30 after getting mine cooled down and backed into the shed and shut down . Next morning around 9 i was back out to the farm to get back to plowing and when i got out of my car i could hear a 450 idling and figured that my buddy was already there , NOT . I get to the shed and black smoke was BILLOWING out of the shed dead birds everywhere and his 450 still running and NO MIKEY . I pulled his out of the shed and let it clear out before i started mine . After the air cleared out i went back in and got mine up and running and was at the luunch stand feeding mine when he pulls in still half asleep red eyed and not moving to welland comes up to me and say oh thanks for getting mine going did you check the oil ?? Ah no you never shut it off lastnight and all them birds that USe to roost in the shed are now all dead . And i get oh crap i forgot to shut her down i was running late and was going to get a shower and changed then shut it down . Well look at it this way it's warmed up and almost ready to go ya just need to feed it and check the oil.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
