You've drawn out the gearhead in him.

I pulled out a battery operated tractor last night. Hasn't been used in a few years. I think he will fit it.

Looks like we need a new battery. The original one has perished after many hours of use.

Perhaps you can score some cheap gel cells and put them in parallel.

I already order a replacement SLA. Just need to swap the plug over from the bad one. About a 1/3 the price of the "official battery".

So the fuel pump left me stranded in the driveway. This time it seems to be actually dead. AC Delco replacement on ebay $38.

Will also be tackling the leaking brake line that runs between the frame and the fuel tank.

I've been thinking that I should replace mine proactively, because I have no idea how old it is. Bruce gave me some excellent tips for working on these trucks.
