Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Something about winter weight oils quite frequently overlooked is that its not all about cranking and starting.
Discussion seems to focus on cold weather cranking speed and success of starting using various winter weight oils leaving engine protection once the engine starts on the back burner.
One of the worse things you can do to an internal combustion engine is put it to work (anything above no load low idle) before the oil begins to completely circulate throughout the system.
How fast that happens is determined by what you pour in your crankcase.
A cold engine with no or very low oil pressure for the first several seconds will suffer only infinitesimal bearing wear as long as no load is placed on the engine and the oil hasn't outlived its useful life.
Oil residue remains on the bearing and thrust surfaces from the last run, protecting from metal to metal contact for a brief period of time after starting, another property incorporated into oils.
Over time, cold weather wear will contribute to bearing and thrust surface wear increasing tolerances, lowering oil pressure. This however should take dozens of years on ag equipment if proper cold weather starting procedures are followed and proper winter weight oil has been used.
The thing to remember is winter weight oils weren't exclusively refined for faster cranking but circulation as well.
If your cranking system is in good health, you may not need to drop down to a zero winter grade, it may crank fine with 90 weight in the sump, but how much oil circulation would you expect to have in the first half hour?
The lowest expected ambient air temperature in your region should be the only gauge used when determining the oil grade your engine will either protect itself with or destroy itself with.
The picture below depicts engine bearings damaged from cold starting.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
so in other words changing my cub to the 10W30 from SAE 30 certainly didn't hurt it, in fact it probably helped the longevity of my engine
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Pictures don't lie, cold weather starting will destroy an engine, that's fact.
In these and other forums, "personal preference" is used frequently when debating characteristics of lubricating oils. Personal preference should be soley limited to brand, not duty requirements.
If crankcase oil is too thick to allow an engine to start, no damage is done. If the oil is too thick and it does start, that's when damage occurs. The residual oil left behind is quickly displaced from the bearing surfaces and severe wear begins.
Warming to operating temperature before beginning work minimizes bearing surface wear and will greatly extend engine life.
Engines that run around the clock such as in power plants and over the road trucks and buses in most cases use higher winter grade oils since they are seldom, if ever started cold. These applications fall under a different duty classification.
Engines that sit for more than 8 hours in subfreezing temperatures like most agricultural equipment needs lower numbered winter grades of oil not necessarily for cold weather starting, but for cold weather bearing protection.
Lubricants of all varieties have made improvements by leaps and bounds over the last half century. Even in the last decade scientific breakthroughs have brought us products like zero friction grease. Take advantage of the technology at hand and step up to the next level of protection for all your engines.
As much as I like tinkering, I'd prefer to do only routine maintenance on my equipment, not major overhauls which have been prevented by simply making the right choice in the oil isle.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Just for discussion, Does anyone have any thoughts on synthetic oil in a cub's engine....How about Lucas additive's....They make the wheels turn easier in the display at PeP Boys....Personally I just use SAE 30 Detergent oil....
In Memory of 58,286
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
You're absolutely right, Driver. I alluded to cold weather bearing damage in the other post. Like you, I used to have to cold start diesel engines on a daily basis. Once the engine started, we maintained only enough rpm to keep the engine running and to allow warm up. Since more damage is done during this period than is done during the rest of the day's run, cold starts were included in our durability test procedures. If it were going to damage engine components, we wanted to do it there, rather than after the engine hit the market.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
i wonder why then would my CASE/IH dealer insist that SAE 30 should or could be used in my cub year round. if eventual bearing failure is the result, would they be prepared to be held responsible for damage to my completely healthy engine. of course, they would never take the blame and hold themselves accountable. i even asked them if SAE 30 was acceptable for year round use, they insisted it was. i know many people might have gotten away with it throughout the years, but clearly it is not what international harvester recommended for these engines when they were designed and while oils have improved what has changed is that there is no 10W, 20W, and 30W there is simply 10W30, 10W40, and SAE 30. it still states the in service and owners manuals that oil grade should be changed with the climate conditions the tractor is to be operated in. maybe the people at case/IH need better training on farmall C60 engines, i know that its not a current product but i'm guessing that a fairly large percentage of their customers own these engines, perhaps they would tell their customers proper information on engine oils that should be ran in these engines for winter use so they dont ruin or wear their engines out at accelerated rate.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Whether to switch to synthetics depends on the application or perhaps more importantly, the age of the equipment and its operating environment.
Synthetics at premium price offer slightly better engine protection and offer long periods between drain intervals, probably the biggest advantage people look for when deciding whether or not to switch.
Increases in horsepower and fuel mileage have also been realized by switching to synthetics, but I highly doubt it will boost a Cub up to pulling a double bottom.
But here's the deal breaker: Outside contamination. The two words never mentioned in the synthetic oil switch sales pitch especially pertaining to older agricultural and industrial equipment.
Synthetic oils were originally developed for the aerospace industry where little dirt exists in the operating environment.
Modern oils are designed to collect contaminants the filters miss, holding them in suspension until the oil is renewed. (The reason oil is recommended to be drained at operating temperature.)
Both synthetic and mineral oils can only carry or hold so much contamination, the overflow so to speak, is deposited and collects inside your engine.
Most contaminants are the byproducts of combustion and wear, however some enter from the surrounding environment... Especially engines with open crankcase ventilation... I can't think of a dusty, dirtier environment than where farm and industrial equipment operate.
I would not suggest switching to synthetic oil for the sole purpose of stretching the oil change interval. It is imperative to change the oil before it reaches its contamination saturation point.
It now becomes a matter of economics. Do you care to spend a lot more money for a little more protection yet willing to pull the plug as frequently as you do now?
Unless the OEM called for synthetic oil from the factory,
this is where personal preference might come into play.
Ag and industrial equipment manufacturers will eventually all switch to synthetics with engine design changes and to meet emission standards. I always suggest sticking with factory service recommendations on new equipment.
It's pretty much been proven synthetics oils provide better lubrication properties and may save you money in the long run.
If you switch, limit it to your on highway operations for the real cash savings.
I feel the use of synthetic oil in a Cub would be a waste of money, just my personal preference.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
These little tractors have lasted for 50,60 years by following the instruction of the IHC engineers. They designed them for the hard working small farmer, and the cub preformed very well all these years. As for me I will try to keep my cubs as they were designed. I guess I am not bent on reinventing the cub, I like them the way they are.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
That may be an understatement. I can't find a reference to cite but learned while attending a Cummins seminar shortly after the L-10 engine debut, if the engine is put to work after oil pressure is realized without the warm up period, 40 hours or one working week of wear will be taken off the bearing surfaces. I don't recall if this was an L-10 specific statement or a broad statement in general.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
I will agree and add by simply using today's modern lubricants, the next 60 will come a lot easier. Our grandchildren may never have to experience rolling in a set of bearings.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Manufacturers will send out a TSB (technical service bulletin) or campaign letter to dealers or service outlets if an adjustment or replacement of parts, fluids, or technology is needed to maintain product health and or customer relations.
This is not a recall but merely a directive for future service department repair and billing.
But like everything else, this costs companies thousands to accomplish. Perhaps acquisition after acquisition stalled any forthcoming revisions on older Harvester equipment.
Off topic, before you pay for any "routine" maintenance items on your vehicles inside or outside of warranty, always call the dealer or manufacturer with your VIN number in hand and ask if your vehicle has any "open campaigns".
You will be surprised what you can get done for free.
This also applies to used vehicles new to you.
Even brake jobs are occasionally covered at no cost because the original lining material has been deemed too soft and wore down prematurely.
You will never be notified unless the issue is safety related and a formal "recall" is issued, so there is a good chance there are items in need of attention on what you are driving which you are unaware of.
If the TSB is not called to the dealers attention at the time of write up, there is a high probability they will not call it to your attention yet will bill you in full for the repair.
It is unknown if they also submit the job for warranty compensation after you have paid for it, creating a double dip.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Personal preference for me was based on the recommendations of the mechanics at Babineau's our CaseIH Dealer for decades. They serviced a lot of Cubs and others in the Letter series for years and insisted on the Low Ash SAE30wt oils. My small engine guru always said SAE30wt was his preference, so based on those two recommendations that is what I used and have used since I got Ellie as well as what I used in my small engines.
After talking to Gary and a few others and then googling small engine oil weight imagine my surprise when I find out on the B&S site this Engine Oil Recommendations:
Again after talking to Gary, I have decided to not start Ellie until I get to Costco in the next day or so. It is time to do oil changes .. and I am now moving over to Shell Rotella 10W30.
Confusion breeds Discussion which breeds Knowledge which breeds Confidence which breeds Friendship
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
lol, i dont think GM has opened any "open campaigns" on my 1991 chevy cavalier. i have a house, a mortgage, and i make $14 per hour so i dont spend much on vehicles. i get my cars from down south and do my OWN repairs. my car is simple and easy to repair and i do it myself. i also doubt case/IH has done any updates on the documentation concerning the farmall cub (or any other farmall product) in many, many years.
is it ok to put synthetics into a 50 year old engine that i dont know the history of. it runs well but i dont know if it has ever received a rebuilt or if it still has 50 year old seals. if i run synthetics will i get oil leaking out of places it has never leaked before... or is that a myth
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
I have no firsthand experience in doing so. I would not care to speculate on seal or consumption issues.
You would best be served by doing your own research and decision making pertaining to switching to synthetic oil. Perhaps others here can relate their personal experiences if they have experimented with synthetics in the past.
Re: Winter Weight Oil, Cranking and Lubrication
Prior to our ease of internet access and the wide spectrum of test data uploaded for browsing covering every subject under the sun, a man could only decide what to preference by gathering information from experienced folks, respected elders, textbooks, or from their personal education and experience. Occasionally advice from some of the aforementioned may not have been reliable.
As an example, I was never able to convince my father the wind chill factor has no effect on cold weather starting. 20 degrees is 20 degrees no matter how fast the wind is blowing. The only effect wind has is blowing away heat you are trying to apply to warm things up. I know people who still would take my dad's side offering hours of debate about wind chill.
Can you believe everything you read on the internet? You have to consider the source of the information. Data submitted from testing laboratories and OE manufacturers' such as the B & S oil temperature chart you shared, I would regard as reliable.
I think I've mentioned this before, I like to learn one new thing everyday. I'm not afraid of changing a long time practice due to the discovery of new or updated reliable information. It's part of the learning process.

In the new Committee's historic first vote announced this afternoon, none of the 41 candidates attracted the 75-percent vote plurality required for election.
Top vote-getter among 26 on the Players Ballot was Gil Hodges, with 61.7 percent, followed closely by Tony Oliva (59.3) and Ron Santo (56.8).
Doug Harvey, a National League umpire for 31 seasons, led the 15 non-player candidates on the Composite Ballot with 60.8 percent of the votes. Marvin Miller, the founding executive director of the players' union, finished third with 44.3 percent. Former Commissioner Bowie Kuhn was down the list with 25.3 percent.
Of the 85 Veterans Committee members, 81 returned ballots. The four absentees mathematically would not have made a difference for even the leading vote-getters.
The Veterans Committee will next consider a Players Ballot in 2005. The next vote on a Composite Ballot will not occur until 2007.
Thus, Eddie Murray and Gary Carter, chosen earlier this year in the annual vote by members of the Baseball Writers Association of America, will stand alone during the Hall's induction ceremonies in Cooperstown on July 27.
"This is the Baseball Hall of Fame, the greatest Hall of Fame in the world," said 1990 inductee Joe Morgan, one of the new Committee's voters and a vice chairman of the Hall of Fame. "This is not the Football Hall of Fame, where they're required to put in four people or something like that every year.
"This is the toughest Hall to get into. For anyone elected here, it is the highlight not only of their career but of their life. We want it to be difficult."
Evolution of the Veterans process, from a few hand-picked electors considering a secret ballot to a public vote involving every living member of the Hall, may have led some to expect a mass influx into Cooperstown.
The 85 eligible electors include 58 Hall of Famers who, clearly, have the highest standards for their peers.
One of those 58, former New York Giants outfielder Monte Irvin, told MLB.com when the ballots were revealed in December, "It's not going to make it easier to get in. You still have to really qualify to become a member of the greatest fraternity in baseball."
Irvin's words certainly ring true in the wake of the announced results.
The voters, who also included 25 members of Cooperstown's media wings, considered ballots weaned from the long list of eligibles by screening committees.
"The screening committees did an outstanding job narrowing the Player Ballot from more than 1,400 eligibles," said Jane Forbes Clark, the Hall's chairman. "Both ballots were very strong.
"We are gratified that the voters took their new responsibilities very seriously."
Hodges, who hit 370 home runs and won three Gold Gloves in an 18-year career with the Dodgers and Mets, and Ron Santo, a nine-time Gold Glove winner who played 14 seasons with the Cubs and one with the White Sox, were considered strong candidates for the Veterans Committee's nod.
Among the non-players, managers such as Dick Williams and Billy Martin and influential front-office titans Walter O'Malley and Buzzie Bavasi were regarded as favorites for election.
"It's understandable that some are disappointed because for anyone involved in baseball, election to the Hall of Fame is the highest honor imaginable," Clark said. "The process works by upholding high standards for earning election."
As is the case in the general Hall of Fame elections by writers, voters could vote for a maximum of 10 candidates, with no minimum. The 81 Veterans Committee members who voted cast an average of 5 1/2 votes per ballot.
Clark and Morgan both defended the process, and said it has begun to serve its intent. Upon further thought, Morgan credited the voting with validating the baseball writers' previous voting trends.
"This is supposed to be an opportunity for guys who may have fallen through the cracks to be considered," Morgan said. "Maybe not as many people as we previously thought have fallen through the cracks.
"Maybe the writers have done a pretty good job."
The original list of eligible candidates included all Major Leaguers who played at least 10 seasons through 1981. That year served as the cutoff in order to avoid any conflict with the BBWAA ballots, for which players qualify five years after retirement and on which they remain for 15 years by meeting minimum vote requirements.
The former Committee on Baseball Veterans was established in 1953 and met annually from 1961 until 2001, when it was disbanded. In the 41 meetings from 1961-2001, the committee elected 101 members. It failed to elect a candidate three times in those 41 meetings: in 1993, 1990 and 1988.

These are all the personal information that I'm comfortable with sharing with strangers. If we are not friends and you ask anything more detailed or personal I won't answer at all, sorry.
I use Adobe Photoshop CS6.
These links listed here are the resource blogs/websites I visit most often. But if you could be more specific send me an ask and I'd gladly try to remember and point you to the source.
Yes I do. But PLEASE make sure you request stuff from the series I mention on my sidebar. I've been getting too many random requests for stuff I'm not interested in (or haven't even heard of!) lately. If you won't do me the courtesy of checking my fandoms for 2 seconds, I will ignore your message.
Here's a gif-making tutorial I made some time ago. I still use the same method. Please check it out first and if you still have a question or problems, then feel free to send me an ask.
I use Ernest. You can download it from here.
Back then when I allowed anonymous questions, I would ignore the rude anons. But nowadays I don't ignore any messages I receive. So if I haven't answered your message somehow, I either didn't receive it (Tumblr does that sometimes) or you asked a question that was already answered in my FAQ. Please remind me that you had a question :)
I followed this tutorial for the basic pop-up template, and prettied them up thanks to the html codes of this blog.
I'm sorry but that would be no to all. I don't follow back on request. I will happily check out your blog if you ask me to, though. And I don't promote blogs or reblog posts on request either.
If you've got any other questions about me and/or my blog, ask away.

This was Mikeys first trip squirrrel hunting and its one he will remember. I found an old hickory tree with fresh cutting lying below it and we stood still and waited.

Three men charged with carrying out a home invasion burglary on Marla Drive in Ledyard in October 2011 also stand accused of conducting a home invasion in Montville around the same time.
State police have charged Louis Seignious, 23, and Dawayne Sebastian, 20, with a home invasion at an apartment at 52 Sunny Hill Drive in Montville on Oct. 3, 2011. They are also expected to charge 21-year-old Vincent A. Sebastian III.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit, the three men knocked on the apartment door at about 9 a.m. Kyle Dubicki, 18, who had slept on the couch after a night of video games and drinking, answered the door. One of the robbers held a knife to Dubicki's throat and demanded that he rouse a man sleeping in the bedroom, according to the affidavit. While the one man held Dubicki in a choke hold with the knife close to his neck, the other two men robbed the occupant, 24-year-old Joseph McCormick, according to the affidavit. The three men left the apartment saying they would return with a gun if police were called.
McCormick said the men had forced him to open a safe and hand over $900 in cash. McCormick's 25-year-old housemate, Christopher Floyd, told police that he was asleep in his own bedroom during the incident.
Seignious, who eventually spoke with police about multiple crimes that had occurred in the region during the month of October 2011, said he and the Sebastians had taken 7½ ounces of marijuana and no cash during the Sunny Hill Drive robbery.
McCormick did not report the crime until the next day, according to the affidavit. He said that as he and Dubicki were leaving to report the crime, they saw one of the men from the robbery, later identified as Seignious, sitting in a green Pontiac in the parking lot of the apartment complex. Seignious lived at nearby 65 Sunny Hill Drive.
Seignious and the Sebastians are all being held in prison in connection with the Oct. 14, 2011, home invasion at 13 Marla Drive in Ledyard. State police said they entered the residence, armed with handguns and robbed the victims of cash and jewelry.
Seignious, whose bonds total $753,000, cash or surety in the Marla Drive case, was arraigned on the new charges of home invasion and second-degree threatening when he appeared Monday in New London Superior Court.
Judge Susan B. Handy set an additional bond of $25,000 and continued the case to Jan. 7.
Dawayne Sebastian, who was charged last month in the Sunny Hill Drive case, is being held in lieu of bonds totaling $500,000. Vincent Sebastian, whose bond is $825,000 for the Marla Drive incident and another robbery case, has not yet been arraigned in the Sunny Hill Drive case.

|Years played
Brees' nearly perfect second half leads Saints past Steelers
Drew Brees passed for 305 yards and two touchdowns and the New Orleans Saints defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-10 on Sunday night.
Report: Saints could be without Bush until Week 11
Saints RB Reggie Bush was cleared to return to practice last Monday. Now it looks like he may not return until Week 11.
Bush, Thomas both to miss Week Eight
USA Today reports that both Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas will miss the Saints' Week Eight game vs. the Steelers, the fifth consecutive game that New Orleans has been without its top two running backs.
Injury divides RB Thomas, Saints
With RB Pierre Thomas set to become a free agent for the second offseason in a row, he and head coach Sean Payton are drifting apart.
Saints RB Bush misses practice, unlikely to play
Saints RB Reggie Bush did not practice Wednesday after being cleared to do so earlier in the week. It is unlikely he will play on Sunday.
Bush set to return to Saints backfield
Saints RB Reggie Bush told reporters has been cleared to play in Week Eight when the Saints host the Steelers, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
With Thomas still rehabbing, Payton reportedly growing impatient
Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported Sunday that Sean Payton had lost his patience with RB Pierre Thomas. The Saints' starter hurt his ankle in Week Three and has not played since.
Browns ride defense in stunner over Saints
David Bowens returned two of Drew Brees' four interceptions for touchdowns and the Browns took a stunning 30-17 victory over the defending champion Saints on Sunday.
Sideline worker injured during Browns-Saints game
A sideline worker was injured in the third quarter of Sunday's Browns-Saints game after Saints WR Courtney Roby collided with him on a punt return.
Saints activate Sharper from PUP list
New Orleans has activated FS Darren Sharper from its physically-unable-to-perform list, and he could play in Sunday's game vs. the Browns.
Injuries an obstacle for Saints' improved defense
Although the Saints' defense has compensated for a decrease in takeaways compared to last season, the secondary has been hit hard by injuries, and its depth is being tested.
Rewind: Remembering the Ricky Williams trade
Mike Beacom examines the infamous trade Mike Ditka executed on Draft Day 1999 to select Ricky Williams. After all these years, has Williams finally proven Ditka right? Was he worth all those picks?
Saints place Gay on IR; release Ingram

Brees announces new baby's name via Twitter
Saints QB Drew Brees and his wife, Brittany, welcomed their second son into the world Tuesday, and then announced his name via Twitter on Wednesday.
Rookie Meter: Undrafted Ivory makes a splash
Rams QB Sam Bradford regains the top spot in this week's Rookie Meter, but last Sunday belonged to undrafted Saints RB Chris Ivory.
The New Orleans Saints have announced signed Drescher to a four-year contract. The team made the announcement Wednesday but did not release financial terms of the deal.||||||| Drescher arrived in New Orleans in November of 2010 as a rookie free agent and has played in all 41 games since then, handling snaps on field goals and punts. Saints punter Thomas Morstead was selected to the Pro Bowl for the first time last season and said the reliability of Drescher's snaps was a significant factor.
The New Orleans Saints have signed rookie Justin Drescher as their third long snapper this season. The addition of Drescher means that the long snapper, holder and kicker on Saints field goals all went to the same high school in the Dallas area. Like Drescher, Saints kicker Garrett Hartley and backup quarterback Chase Daniel attended Southlake Carroll.||||||| Drescher replaces Jake Ingram, who was waived after playing only one game against the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday. Drescher played at Colorado in college and began his NFL career as an undrafted free agent with Atlanta last spring. He was waived by the Falcons in June.

Just like everyone else, I was skeptical. The never ending fly & ladybug battle that gave me gray hair. I've had these up since March and I can honestly say I don't see myself having to suck up dead and live flies or ladybugs again! I'm ready to invest in a few more (we have several large windows where they seem to be the worst) so I can cover all my big windows. And never have to vacuum....again! Go ahead and buy the 5 pack right off the bat - I should have.
Best Uses
I was skepitcal at first but after reading the reviews I figured what did I have to lose. I had all my windows redone and still had flies on warm sunny days. The day after I put this up in my patio window I have NOT HAD ONE FLY! Not one - I'm amazed and am glad I ordered for my sister and mom as well for their homes. Don't wait - order it today and you will never have to suck up flies again with your vacuum on a warm sunny day like I used to! Let's just say I do not miss that chore :)
- Was this a gift?:

Best Uses
This product eliminates the little piles of dead flies on my window sills.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Nothing Better On Market
- Very easy to use
- Very Effective
- A Little Pricey
- Can't Be Moved
- Not For House Flies
- Only For Cluster Flies
Best Uses
- In Window Without Tape
This fly trap is the best! I love to see the flies fall in and meet their death; those nasties! I live in an old house and have several traps.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
I was skeptical, but in a matter of days after placing these on our attic window, we not only had no more flies in the attic but also no more flies in the house!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Fairly attractive
- No nasty chemicals
- works
Best Uses
- Inside home
Couldn't say enough great things about this product. We went from 100s of flies to none in a few hours. Have not noticed any new ones. Just be sure eggshell stuff inside is level when you install it, hold it up to a light & it's easy to see. Great product, highly reccommend.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Flies congregate on the windows in my bedroom. I purchased one of these for each window. Installed according to directions. The flies do die once they end up in the trap. The problem is that there is nothing to attract the flies to it. They hang around all over the window and go nowhere near the trap. I have to coax the fly towards it so it eventually falls into the thing where it is trapped and dies. So in my opinion, this is not a fly trap. It is a storage container. I am the fly trapper.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Keep Them In Stock
- The Only Solution
- Use Enough For Area
- Works right away
Best Uses
- Gets Rid Of Tons Of Flies
- Miraculous In The House
- Place In Widows Everywher
These traps have been the only solution to the cluster flies that used to cover the windows in our log home starting every October through
December. The flies apparently lay eggs in the wood and hatch every year into the house. It was disgusting to have them clustered on sunny corners of all our windows. The traps have been solving the problem for at least 10 years for us now. We change them about every two years depending on how
full they get. I now hoard them in case I run
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
These are great! Within 24 hours, my cluster fly problem was disappearing! Even lady bugs are drawn to it! They aren't exactly works of art in my window, but they are as unobtrusive as possible for a bug killer. :) Love them!!!
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Non Toxiv
- inflexible use
Best Uses
- On Double-hung Windows
- On Doublr
I emailed the company with no response as to using this product with casement windows where the screen was on the inside. No mention was made regarding the inflexibility of the product and I was ignored by the manufacturer. I have since removed some selective screens to try my luck, as just putting the devices up against the screen didn't work. I believed all the comments from previous users and bought 10 devices and 2 of the ones for the Japanese lady bugs. I hope my adjustment works, but would still like to hear back from the manufacturer.

Attorney Michael K. Fee of Ropes & Gray LLP — who is working as the official representation for Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez — released the following statement Monday night:
"Over the past week, our client, Aaron Hernandez, has been the subject of a relentless flood of rumors, misinformation, and false reports in the media. These include the repeated publication of a supposedly confirmed report that an arrest warrant had been issued for Aaron, a report that was exposed as untrue. None of these false reports come from official sources and we appreciate the professionalism and restraint shown by the Bristol County District Attorney's Office to date with regard to its public statements while its investigation is underway. Out of respect for that ongoing investigation, we will continue to refrain from commenting on its substance."

Now that I have solved my electrical problem, I've driven the little lawn mower around the yard and it runs great!!
I have noticed that the deck height adjuster is tied off to the seat post with a rope to hold the deck up. The push button on the lift rod is there, but when pushed it sticks inside the rod/handle. I have sprayed liquid wrench in there liberally and have pressed the button and tapped on the side to pop it back out. I've done this over and over, but the button still sticks. Also, the mechanism at the bottom of the handle doesn't seem to catch inside an adjustment notch. THe deck is only floating freely, with only the rope to hold it. I would like to get this working perfectly again, and don't know how to tackle. I'm sure this is a common problem, and I'm sure there is a "trick" to fixing it.
Also, I tried to engage the mower deck (PTO), and it did nothing as far as turning the deck. I got off the tractor and noticed that the pulley(?) on the flywheel that the deck belt attaches to engages and spins, BUT the belt that is attached to it doesn't move. WHat could be the problem here? I noticed that when tried to turn the pulleys on the mower deck by hand that it seems that it is all pretty stiff and tight although the deck pulleys will rock back and forth with my hand movement.
