  1. I would say filters, but may be something floating in the tank that gets stuck on the pick up tube, old glove, trash, etc...
  2. That's awesome, any royalties??
  3. When I have an issue I use a regular mouse trap with peanut butter sitting in the middle of the floor that usually takes care of it. Check it a few times during the week, once you get them usually don't get any more for awhile mostly during seasonal changes. I also try not to leave anything in the cabs that they may want to chew on, all the registration, insurance and other paper and stuff comes in the house. When I brought home my F Model last winter/fall a husband and wife team were living in the passenger seat the shopvac got them out in no time. Turned em loose in the tall grass but I think the neighbors cat got them since she patrols the area and all my outside stuff real good. Or they took the hint and moved on because have not seen them back since.
  4. might be a broken valve spring there is an inner and outer spring maybe it is broken and it is floating at higher rpm listen to my youtube video I was driving along when it broke, took the valve cover off and the outer spring was broken and when I replaced it the inner was broken too lucky never dropped was able to rotate the engine to top dead center and replaced them with out pulling the heads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fZxTCGHioo 1959 B 61 with 673END, out for a ride with my youngest son, at about 4:54 broke an exhaust valve spring about a mile from home.

  8. looks like fun. I don't mind haying, we did hay here in Missouri than I did hay at my dads in Maine. Didn't have any of my Mack's involved although at my dads used my pickup and trailer and since he does square bales I also had to use my back.

  17. I used this topic for the screen shots, read the slides you should be able to figure out what I did. I thought I had deleted the post but only the picture it is now gone. Don't worry you should or shouldn't be confused?!
  18. Needs some work so I am sure it will need to be hauled, I spoke with them a couple months ago they were firm on the price then maybe you see if they are flexible now??

  22. They must of been out everywhere, went to the VA this morning and as I was getting off I 70 the DOT had a truck pulled over on the on ramp two mobile weigh scale trucks and the two officers where yucking it on the side of the road while the driver was sweating it out, maybe trying figure out who was going to be the good one and who was going to be the bad.
