Don't get me started on pump gas of today . In my area we have a ton of small family farms that do not have newer stuff , many USE to milk small dairy herds , They are all gone now , the last to go was one of my old customers . They ran OLD tractors and many of them were Gas powered , many of them bought tractors i sold all good tractors till they went and changed the gas AGAIN . Some of these guys i serviced , fixed and kept running for over 25 years. They liked a couple GAS tractors around when winter came , they needed to haul manure, grind feed move bales , and run the generator when the power went out . They knew that one tractor was going to start no matter how cold it was and it had the pony power for any job needed . Myself i hobby farmed over a hundred acres with a gas tractor and combine , (1) THEY COST FAR LESS TO BUY, They did the work at hand , they were easy up keep and ready to go when i had time to play . I could fill my truck and fuel tank for the tractor while i was getting gas for the truck . Till about what 6-7 years ago when around here they changed the gas and one after the other tractor went down , each and everyone went down with burnt pistons and scored sleeves , all with in about a day or two . Now all these tractors were built from 1963 on thru 1967 and according to the ORG owners manual it clearly states they need a minim of 93 Octane gas . So lets step back to 1958to 1962 those tractors need a minim of 89 Octane gas . YOUR 450's and back To M's will run on good MOONSHINE or what ever .

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
