    Fine work and video Joseph. A denuded pipe cleaner wire is about the only thing that will clean out the low speed jet. I've tried compressed air, soaking, boiling, vacuum, nothing but a fine wire seems to work. They make a retro fit for a better low speed idle, but I think you have to remove the seat, and that may require some drilling or machining. One thing is for certain,yoou will never get a good low seed idle with it partially plugged. The upside is that it extremely easy to do and once done you can repeat the process almost as quick as changing a fuel filter.

     

    Thanks, we will give it a try.

    Happy Birthday Joseph, you'll have to post a picture of that socket set!

     

    Thanks Alain. I believe the socket set is a Halfords Advanced which comes with a lifetime guarantee. This will not be something you will of heard of and it is not Snap-on quality but they have a good reputation. It is a combined metric and A/F set with 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 drive.

    Great job on the plowing Joseph! The igloo is pretty awesome as well :bow: I made one myself (well more of an 'eggloo' but cheated since the back was built in a 2 foot snow drift ;)

    Good video Joseph. :thumbs:  Nice to see that John's old Bolens is still going strong and being put to use.    Probably thinks it's a Wheel Horse though with all the RED paint. :hide:

     

    Thanks Alan. The bit I forgot to mention was that we ended up with puncture on one of the front tyres. I don't think the tyre had ever been off and the repair was not easy. Putting the tyre back on the rim the tyre lever slipped off the rim and smashed dad in the face. His face ended up the same colour as the tractor :wacko:

     

    The tractor has done well but now needs a carb rebuild and a few other jobs doing to it and is waiting for it's turn in the workshop.
