 Just picked this up here in Oklahoma today! It said it ran when he parked it and now it's seized up. Gave $250 or it so just couldn't pass it up!!! |

| Tried turning the motor over by hand and it seems like it locked up. Guy told me his sister bought it from an older lady who said it ran fine then her husband died and it set for several years. Hopefully I can get it freed up and running easily |

Nice looking tractor. Looks like a 39 that someone added a battery and probably electric start to. No mounts for a generator. Nice project. LOL Bob ------------- 4 B's, 1 C's,3 CA's, 2 G's WD, D14, D15, B-1, B10, B12, 712S, |

iPhones and iPads have a gravity sensor and include the device orientation in the picture data, but PCs and PC software generally ignore that orientation data. iPx hardware always rotates the picture to show it properly whatever the orientation of the display device compared to the picture taking device with that data. GIMP does notice that when given such a picture to edit and asks if it should be rotated to make up really be up. There isn't an option in the picture post window on this forum to rotate the picture. There is an option to set the display size, 480 high by 640 wide fits my screen nicely with text I can read easily. 600 high by 800 wide usually gets nearly all the picture data on the screen with readable text size. I can look at much larger pictures, but when I've adjusted my browser to get a big picture on the screen the text is only one pixel tall and impossible to read. Gerald J. |
