Before doing the charging tests, I took the meter and checked the large termininal to ground. It had only 50 ohms resistance. According to the test procedure i found, if you hook the batt term to the arm terminal at the VR, it should increase in voltage which it did not. It dropped in voltage and the big terminal got warm to the touch. I am going to take it back to the local rebuilder this week and have him go through it.
Its unreal how much oil psi this tractor has. The new gauge they sent me only goes to 60 psi. The old one that did not work was an 80 psi. It will max out the gauge with oil psi at full throttle, even hot.
All the gears work as they should. The clutch may be a little weak but its been a while since i have been on a total mechanical clutch. The left brake works ok. The right brake does not work at all. I will have to check into that. With the new proofmeter installed, it will idle all the way down to around 350 with that model a sound.
Tomorrow is lift day. I bought a psi relief valve to put in. The lift will raise really fast until it gets the weight of the bushhog on it and it stops. Hopefully, the relief valve will fix it but I will look in there for leaks tomorrow.
My s/n is 8n432061 with stars on each end. I did look at that but it got dark before i made it to the other locations to look.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
