Is what most who come to the forums want to know. Now I qulified that by saying"MOST",I realize there are those who come to spread hate and discontient,,,,,,,we already know what should be done about/to them. So as they say in the corparate board rooms,"let's throw this up and see if it sticks to the ceiling". What I suggest is possiably a forum dedicated almost intirely to tutorals that are put togeather by 2 or more knowledge members comunicating via e-mail while planing then if needed,utilizing U_tube post it. Let's take one example to demonstrate useing "seems like dead battry" as complaint. A $10 volt/ohm meter can run this down in short order "IF" you have been shown how to use the meter and what the readings mean. Always put black probe to -/neg and in the case of neg ground,to most any metal area on machine,and any where on engine. Red probe goes to hot wire being tested or pos/+ when testing for ground.For pos grnd systems see +grng tutorl 1 Test- bat post to+ post=12.5v or more bat ok go to 2 / low or no v check/charge battry. 2 Test +post to engine block=no or low volt bad cable to post or cable to engine connection/12v go to 3 3 Remove coil wire/ diesel switch to kill,transmission in N ,wheels blocked. 4 Try to start=single click each time key turned to start or start button pressed-need helper or clips on probes here-test from engine to cable connecting solonoid to starter= 12v/ put in high gear and rock rear wheel until fan blade moves a few times,put trans to N and try starter-,starter works now=hanging starter go to "hanging starter"tutorial. Still nothing?See tutorials "Ignition and starter switchs" "starter solonoids" And so on in a systematic fashion. It just seems a shame to think those most knowledgable about the old machines will never be able to preserve that knowledge so others will enjoy it later. I realize searching the forums will tell one everything they might need to know but that doesn't seem to be the norm. With this tutorial approch,I believe it not only helps one thru thier present problem but better prepares them to solve future ones. I am excited to hear what everyone thinks and more spicificaly,to see the first presentations. If of you that know how to post links would post a couple from the diesel truck forums where it is common,that would be great.

Today's Featured Article - Madison's County - by Anthony West. Philip Madison has been a good friend of mine for quite some time. He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
