The other thing I bought that day was an oil filter for my Onan. I pulled it out of the box and told the parts mgr, "I heard Deere changed the size of the oil filter last spring, and it sure is smaller, both diameter and shorter" All I got in return was a stupid look. I took it back a couple days later. Smaller didn't hurt, but shorter recessed it beneath the cooling shroud so I couldn't any kind of a filter wrench on it to tighten it. I guess the early JD #420 garden tractors that use the exact same engine and cooling shrouds don't have the problem as my 982 would have. Whoever made that change at Deere Engineering probably never sat on a 420 let alone ever changed oil in one.
My Case/IH dealers have been able to pull pretty low volume parts off the shelf when I've asked for them, and at prices less than suppliers advertising on the internet. If I was in charge of the parts dept, having been in a "just in time" manufacturing environment for 30+ years I'd stock even less and ship more stuff in next day delivery from the depots.

The need for people to escape for periods of relaxation in an increasingly complex and pressured environment takes us into the realm of hobbies. For some it's scaling high mountains for others it's putting p
