Howdy folks, Well, I just had to tell y'all about this one, it tickled me so much today. Went out this morning to feed my dog Buster. He's the best dog I've ever owned. A black lab with a lazy streak a mile long. He lays down to eat his food and sits in the yard..but only with a nice tree to lean up against. But he's a good'un. (to coin a jerry clower phrase). He'll follow me and the tractor everywhere and that includes walkin the furrow when I plow. Well, on Christmas day an unwelcome Santa dumped off a stray pup at our house. It was a mixed breed with some boxer in it. We had just given away a stray beagle a few days earlier so we didn't want another stray to stay around for several weeks like the other one. None of us liked this pup, especially Buster. That little pup would bother him somethin awful; he even bit it twice. Well, I went out to feed him this morning and couldn't find either of them. Went the whole day without seein a trace. Now, Buster is not a traveling dog and for him to just disappear is very odd and for me, frightening. I was scared to death I had lost him. I ran all kinds of scenarios...maybe someone stole him, maybe the dogcatcher had come by, maybe he was so bothered by the pup that he left. It just tore me up. Well, right at supper time low and behold here comes Buster...wet, tired, thirsty, and........with no tagalong puppy. That smart dog was so fed up with that annoying little mut that he personally took it on a long walk and lost it. I've never felt so relieved or proud of a dog in all my life. He's a good'un for sure. God bless. --old fashioned farmer

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
