spanj Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Cheers old un. It's hard looking at things I have no idea what they are, I keep reading but it's not sinking in at the moment. I knew what a spool vale vas the other day. Now I don't. As the video shows when I pull my leaver up for the arms it only lifted about 4 inches up and I have to hold it. In the video his went all the way to the top. Iv no idea if there are different types. If mines faulty or if I'm just doing it wrong. Was in the Chippy today myself. Spam fritter butty. Beautiful LOve spam fritters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking Posted November 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 first id like to thank everyone for there help and comments on my tractor but due to a bit of recent bad news its going to have to go, pretty much agreed a sale on it and just waiting for a deposit being paid later and pick up at the weekend. as some of you may know my other half, grace was diagnosed with stage 4 terminal cancer 5 and a half years ago and given 3 month to 3 years to live, a few week ago grace had one of her 3 monthly scan to make sure he cancer was still in check, they found another lump and feared it could be more cancer or the excising cancer spreading, got the results back on monday and it turns out its more cancer, so with it being 6 week since her last scan and her next one on monday they are going to see if its spread anymore and if the new medication has worked or not, then he may have to have radiotherapy, and they said the other day that out of people with terminal cancer only 18% of people have lived past 5 years, so obviously one day its going to go tits up and spread badly, with all this going on i cant waste any of my time messing about with the tractor hence the sale, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckyshot Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Never a good time Lee, I've lost my brother in law and my dad to cancer this year. Family must come first everything else can wait. Glad to see you getting your priorities right and hopefully the future is great for the both of you.
