1. A plow is typically designed to plow 1/2 as
deep as the bottom is wide. If you have a 16
inch molboard, it is designed to plow 8 inches
deep. If 14", then only 7" deep. So, you be
going way deep enough! 2. Why would you shorten the top link? This
typically makes the plow go shallower on a
normal 3pt plow. If you lengthen the top link,
then the plow tends to suck itself deeper.
However, with a farm store type plow on a
smallish tractor, things might not be lining up
right, so perhaps you are doing the right thing
for your situation. But normally, making the top
link a little longer makes it suck in a little
deeper. 3. Worn out plow lays will often make a plow
skid on the surface rather than dig in. Sounds
like you are not having any problem actually,
but for the future..... 4. You manage to get one of those cheep little
plows sunk all the way into the ground to the
depth of the whole molboard??????? And it
didn't break????? Holy cow & why are you
going so deep???? :) --->Paul

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
