Primarily, this is an antique tractor site and a lot of people, like me, are using 30+ year old equipment. As a sideline, there is a great interest in the older implements. Many of us have an interest in agriculture or are actual farmers. You should also reread the many times I have mentioned that I consulted with professionals from CIH who told me that experience has shown Cyclos will plant well with less than optimum pressure. They also stated that, since the manual was printed, a little lower pressure has been found to be even a good thing. You will also find where I stated that I planted last year with 4-5 oz and had a great stand. Believe it or don't...not my problem. To the best of my knowledge, having worked on the planter a lot and used it, the only thing wrong with it is an issue with pressure...most likely due to a tired PTO pump and one row is shorted on the harness so the monitor beeps on that one. So if you are a BTO and can afford brand new equipment...good for you. Guess you never had a breakdown during planting. Here it is just part of the deal. I like old equipment, I plant a few acres with it, I learn a lot and take a few lumps. Guys help me here a lot. And that, my friend, is all the thread is about. No harm, no foul.

Today's Featured Article - The Mud Daubers and the Old John Deere - by Jon Zehnder. I have a 1941, John Deere Model A tractor I have owned for about a year and a half. This is my first (in case my wife reads this, "FIRST") tractor and it has been a learning experience. After considerable advise and assistance from local tractor nuts and the forums of Yesterday�s Tractors, I had finally got it running pretty well. I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
