Re: Super Original

I used to have an RX-7 Turbo II, and I can attest to the "no torque" thing. You had to run it up to 3000 RPM and dump the clutch if you wanted any take-off at all. But then it would howl along at 7000 RPM (governed redline) all day with no sweat. In fact, you were supposed to do that from time to ti...

Snow Thrower drive belt length

I went to my local Cub Cadet dealer to purchase a belt for my new (to me) QA42 (thanks Tim!), and they did not have any in stock. It doesn't look like it will snow any time soon, but for future reference, I'd like to know what size belt this should be. It's for a 125 if that makes a difference. Anyb...

No shaky ground here. The host for this forum is a shared server, and occasionally the other tenants eat up all the available CPU time. I've complained to the server provider several times - they'll adjust as usage goes up and down.

The Farmall Cub's little 60 cubic inch engine puts out a whopping 9.25 Belt and 8 Drawbar HP (15 Belt HP for the last International Cubs). Not much excess power there!

That's what the search function is for! Find the square in the top right hand corner of your browser window, type "782 carb" in there and hey, presto! There you go (plus you'll see this post in there since I used the words here too).

Post Order like the old Registry...

Here's how to set your user options up so that you see posts newest on top:

User Control Panel -->
Board Preferences (tab) -->
Edit Display Options (on left side) -->

Set "Display Post Order Direction" to "Descending"

It's set to ascending as default.

Re: New cubber in southern ohio

You can write out John Deere if you want. That was just a little joke on the old forum - it had a list of profanities that would be censored, so naturally I just added that in there! Really! I won't censor Simplicity, Allis Chalmers, Case, Massey-Ferguson, Ford, or even Economy here! ;)
