"We were able to lift the tractor off her and slide her out from under it".

Once when I was a dumb 16 year old kid, I managed to knock a car off of a jack and onto me. The weight of the car wasn't on me, but the rear axle was across my neck with my head on one side and the rest of me on the other. I naturally yelled like he11.

At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. 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 ... [Read Article]
