Deas-

This link hopefully will work:



To get the youtube address click the 'youtube' name to the left of the 'fullscreen' control. This takes you to youtube itself with the youtube address of the actual video in the URL bar where it can be 'selected' and 'copy'd' for 'saving', 'pasting', 'bookmarking', etc.

Daron

edit--- Well I copy'd and pasted the youtube address into my reply and the bastard BBS software took it upon itself to 'imbeded' the video in my reply.  A wasted quarter to half an hour of my time!  Sorry if I wasted your time.

Look closely at the Diesel Sixty at 7 minutes 10 seconds and look at the starting engine. It looks like a Ford Model A engine complete with transmission. There is a lay shaft below it going back to the flywheel. I have always wondered about this tractor, if it was an experimental and they had just not gotten around to designing the starting engine yet or if this was a owner field modification. There are several other pictures out there of this tractor.
Thanks
Ken

Hi, bruce oz.
Thanks for that. Bruce. I've had updates for both Windows 10 and Firefox in the last couple of days, maybe time to either reboot again or try to go back to the old versions.
