Frankie, In 1983 We had a gettin stuck party. It was quite a ordeal....Had a 6 in rain, were checking cattle and fences after the storm when we stuck a 4x4 pickup on a blowsand grass hill....Then got another 4x4 pickup stuck,....Plus our neighbors old 4x4 stuck too. Ok so we got his 1206 IH, got out his pickup, Ok!, But then stuck the 1206 to he axle before we got to the 2nd pickup. Went and got our 4640, Got out his 1206, but got it hung up before we got to #2 pickup. By this time of day we had been going 4 hrs. So we decided that we would go get our 8640 JD, 250 hp 4x4, articulating in the middle tractor. Well we got in there got out the 4640, the 2nd pickup. Now only leaving the first pickup to get out. We snaked in on the grass pasture and got to the 1st pickup, gingerly got it out, then all #ell, broke loose.... the bottom fell out from under it and it was hung up on the axles. This whole show played out within 30 feet of the dirt road by this pasture. well it took 2 weeks for ti to dry out enough to try to get it out, it still took one of our 4640s with duals and a huge tow rope to get it out. This was the talk of the neighborhood for a while. Later, John A.

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
