I watched a sales video on Utube last night by the Minny Mo corp. It was really interesting how the company referred to their tractors as "Last Forever" tractors. Their sales pitch was their engines had lots more support "iron" built into them, that they were just built heavier to last longer. They also stated in great detail how their engines were slow speed engines. Each time a crankshaft makes one revaluation the pistons must go up, then down one time, each time it wears a little. So an engine that spins 24-2600 RPMs will not last as long as one that spins 1800 RPMs to get the same amount of work done. The competitors tractors they compared to their G900 was a IH 806 and A John Deere 4020. What I thought was strange was they showed each pulling a 6 bottom plow. I think that was stretching things a little, but my thought was Case, and MM both had tractors from that time period that both spun very slow engine speeds compared to other tractors out there. Lets fast forward 50+ years and look at the evidence. Did the Minny Mo tractor engine way out last the JD or IH for service life?? If so, did Case engines which were also built with tons more iron, And tached out at 1800 also out last the competitors, or did only Minny Mo tractors hold the high engine hour trophy? Interesting sales pitch, but was it really true?? AL (also who ever pulled 6 bottoms with a G900?)

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
