Yikes Mike. I deal with this
My goal is to never leave home and work every day.
Blown hose? I am pretty fortunate to have a hose maker, dies and a lot of ends. It took about 5 yrs to collect it all and gets me out of most jams. Fortunately there is a great hose shop about 30 mins from me when i cant cobble something. My goal is to never leave home and work every day. I avg about 1 to 2 week stretches. Most of the bits i need come in the mail. Saves me a lot of half hour trips to town.
Man, I guess I need to take more pictures. Mike is too *DanG far ahead and probably 10x the mechanic. For instance, I spent 10 mins trying to get an oil drain plug off the morning. Have to go back with a pipe for leverage. Someone must have tightened it on with an impact wrench. Took Mikes advice though and pumped the hydraulic and fuel tanks empty after I ripped 3 hoses off on the forwarder crane, found the hydraulic tanks nearly empty (not from me) so it was worthwhile getting them clean. Diesel tank is clean too (cheap harbor freight transfer pump does wonders.
Well then dont take this the wrong way, but Im actually a pretty good mechanic
