the snows have finally come and it is time to get KOMMUNIST KAT ready for a little plowing. of course i cheated and used the loader to put him in the heated shop. he has not ran since last may so over night in the shop will make starting easier.

(i used the 922 loader to put him in the shop)

KOO, have you noticed any so-called climate change ("global warming") up there over the years? GWH

I see you got snow! I live in central Alberta and right now a storm is blowing in. It is 7:36 and the temperature is -2C. A little difference in lattitude is a lot! I live about eight miles south of the 52 parallel. I am sure that a little heat is needed to get those old beasts going. We had a gas well drilled across from our house two years ago and when they rebuilt the road in the summer, they used a Bomag packer to tighten it up. One morning, the woman driving the packer couldn't get it started. No matter what she did, it woudn't start. A mechanic was sent out and he tried it and it started right away! The explanation? It was -1C in the morning and the electronics has a safety in it that makes it impossible to start when it's below freezing! That's what you really need! New junk!😄

IDN, probably would be best if you could list just what parts your in need of then guys could check what they have around. Also post the serial number of your tractor too as there is a difference frome the early ones to the later ones made in some of the parts.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
