    Question about Temp Gauge

    Answer my own question I changed temp gauges to a VDO and now have some temp readings to share. Normal trips around the farm the temp gets up to 205. One road trip between farms running flat out it got up to 215. Seems high compared to my other diesel engins but considering the indirect air...

    Berryman tire sealant Tired of flat tires on my tractors and RTV, I bought 5 gallons of Berryman tire sealant. I found a calculation to determine the ounces per tire but no where can I find the ounces per stroke of the pump. Short of pumping into a measuring cup I wondered if anyone on this...
