A couple years ago I needed four used 14" car tires in the 195-205 range for a small wagon. I happened to be at a local car repair that sold tires and I asked him if he had any. He told me he had three out back that had been ice picked, go dig through the pile they are free. I went back there and found three almost brand new matching tires plus another one that was a different brand but same size. When I carried a couple of them through the shop on the way to my pickup a young mechanic told me they wouldn't work because a patch on a sidewall won't hold. I told him it wasn't a problem because I am using tubes. He got this inquisitive look on his face and asked me "what's a tube"? The question took me by surprise for sure but I went on to explain what a tire tube is.
On the other hand, quite awhile ago I hauled some junk on a hay rack to a town north of me. I picked up a nail in a tire on the rack while in town so I took it to a gas station that sold tires. It was a car tire and when they took it off it wasn't worth fixing. They had an old used tire that would fit so they put it on, charged me $15 to change tires and $25 for the old used tire. They knew I was in a bind so they stuck it to me. Next time I had a spare and a jack along with me. That station is gone now, wiped off the map. Good riddance!

The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
