    I did that with the sn*wblower last fall. Starting for the first time to test before it was neededc-made sure fuel valve was on but still would not start. Tore things apart when it still wouldnt go. In the end, at some point I turned the fuel valve off again :picard:

    it's dual rear wheel, and the Trojan blade setup is like their road graders of the era - mid 1940's. the tractor weighs 5500 lbs without the aftermarket hardware, so probably 7500 lbs on the trailer.

    i will take my loader tractor out there, remove the dual wheels, and tow/push it on my flatbed trailer with the plow (8') stopping just behind the trailer tires. i'll enlist son David's help and use the pellet trailer for the loader tractor. at least, that's the current plan!

    I burned through more of the oil in the fall using only HHO at the time and then the cold snap used up some more. Now that I have switched back to 24/7 on the pellets oil use has dropped considerably. At these higher oil prices, its full on pellet time

    BTW, used Local Pride in Rochester and not Rymes as this is the co that I use to use. A little higher but local and can deliver next day, maybe 2 days if they are swamped. Smaller delivery area means better service. Credit Card in advance and done-no drivers lic or social # needed

    Wife has been having some issues that the doctor told her could be a gluten intolerance. he wants her to go gluten free for two weeks. I bought her some gluten free bread, $4.99 for a small loaf. The expiration date on the bread read, Aug 2018! Wonder if it is radiated.

    Took advantage of the mild weather today and did a thorough cleaning of the P68 venting, as well as the stove itself. Going to be mild again tomorrow, well take it!

    Apparently was a beautiful day here in NH. I don't know, I was in class all day. But, the good news is that now I am a certified bystander
