Yes yes! Read the book Iron Coffins if you want the crap scared out of you. The movie Das Boot was on the big screen and I went to see it. I had two years of high school German so I could pick up enough with some sub titles to really fall into the story. When they were sitting on the bottom of the Gibraltar straights I was sweeting bullets right along with them. When the young kid asks the captain what our chances are.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
