Hand shakes ? The saying is : a pile of dung is just a handshake away ! Years ago I visited an ole timer I used to work with at a shop . He had a Jubilee that I was trying to persuade him to sell me . I noticed a set of 2 bottom 14" plows & a sickle bar mower for it setting down in his field that hadn't been moved for years . I asked him about them . He said if I could get them out of his way I could have them but he wouldn't part with the tractor yet . Well I had a trailer available so I went back home to get it & thought I'd call another fellow I had known that just lived about 1 mile past my ole friend . He had a Ford 800 with a front loader . I asked him if he would drive down & load them into my trailer for me in about an hour . He says , I can't this evening but in a couple days I will . He promised to call me . well I waited a few days & decided to call him up . No answer . So I got a rough tough buddy to ride with me to help hand load them . got there & they were gone . Here that Ahole went right down that evening & told my friend that I had said to tell him that I couldn't pick them up & he was to for me . That bird has the gull to smile at me when he sees me to this day . I trust nobody anymore with dealings . Money in hand & trailer on the back of me truck is the best agreement . Good luck next time . Ken C

That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
