Doug: I like that, "In my mind they are all good until it's time to work on them." I'm an old fart, thus I play around with little ones these days, (SA, 130 and 140) parts are lighter.
Some time ago I striped the distributor drive gears in my 130. When it happened in winter I just pulled the complete distributor off SA. Grass time came and I needed SA for mowing, thus I parked the 130 in April with No.1 at TDC on compression. Picked up a used set of gears over the summer, thus installation day happened last week. Got her all together, no starter action, no gas and poor spark. Off to CaseIH I go, as I went out the door, noticed that damn SA carb was leaking again. At CaseIH I picked up carb kits for each, a few points, condencers, rotors, starter switch, some oil filters, etc. Basically my years supply, I always like to keep a few of these on hand.
Right away the 130 cranks like hell, gas is coming, spark is intermitent. Drove down to a neighbors, told him I wanted him to tell me whether I was stupid or just missing something. Back we both come and 130 fired right up. Must have been the neighbor's presence. Not really, it still flutters a bit, doesn't always fire up quick, I've decided it's distributor cap.
Yes, I agree they can be annoying, if you have to work on them. By the way, I like to know how the MD and 77 compare on a hard road pull. Be FAIR, hahaha.

The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
