WHOOO HOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Hough's first wheel loader came to market in 1939. It was rear engined to add a higher bucket load capacity. It operated with a gravity powered latch mechanism. Over the next decade, Hough introduced numerous innovations. In 1941, Hough released the world's first wheel loader with hydraulically-operated arms. In 1944, they released the first wheel loader with hydraulically-actuated bucket tilt, which allowed operators to tilt the bucket while approaching a pile of dirt to obtain a full load, a common practice today. Three years later, in 1947, Hough released the world's first hydraulic four wheel drive bucket loader. In 1950, Hough released the first wheel loader with planetary axles, a torque converter and a power shift semi auto transmission. In 1952, the Frank G. Hough Company was sold to International Harvester. For the next 30 years, International Harvester would produce it's Canadian Wheels loaders under the Hough brand name. In 1982, the International Harvester Company was acquired by Dresser Industries. Dresser would then merge with Komatsu in 1984, forming the Komatsu - North American Company. Early power was Hercules gassers post WW II they were Detroit powered after 1952 they were all I.H powered

The DOT III will swell up the rubber half again bigger. My 1941 Chevy has the same type of master cylinder with a screw in cap, I went to the local swimming pool supply and found a Teflon seal ring for a pool pump. It is impervious to everything from brake fluid to chlorine. Cost a whole 59 cents. Paul

The military colors would defiantly contain lead. Our military and NATO used up their supplies into the mid 70's. Haggis in the engine? better in my belly! Paul

COOL INFO!! uSELESS INFORMATION-----The ''cage masts'' on the battleships were made of lattice works so they could be retracted to pass under the brdge span to and from the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Paul

The GTO had a 'good engine' in it. . . a 396. . . Can't figure the Battledhip though.

WHITE HOUSE STAFF!

I would think if the throttle works from the governor than the problem would be between the linkage from the governor to the foot / hand throttle. I don't recall a limited throttle through the oil pressure switch. Paul

De scaler might be just the ticket and for 30 bucks a Harbor, cheap enough to try. Paul

Congrats!!!!!! That is a good unit and cleaner than I thought it would be. I'll be in Clark N.J. late next week at Merkel Racing Engines. Is that near you? Paul
