I'll check all that and get a list of Cummins dealers put together.

More than likely I won't need any of the stuff but I guess it never hurts. I didn't have a lick of trouble when it went to SOP last October other than a small jumpy speedo issue.

Fuel pump and filter.......

They will run with no batt if the kill thingy is gone, and cool with light loads if the belt is gone.

382K on mine now, only issue I had was bad fuel, and a damn tensioner.

Did you tack weld the spider pin in your carrier yet? The roll pin/bolt breaks sometimes on older trucks..

It runs awesome(I'll probly post some video soon) the tractor only has 497 hours on it and was taken care of very well. The rearend was rebuilt last year and had a new starter last year also. I stole this little gem for a cool grand. :D

You are such a FAG! :P How come I never find the good stuff cheap like that? :cry:
Got the fantabulous 2 cylinder Lombardini diesel in 'er :lol: I wish I could find a small diesel for my JD. I wanna do a conversion on it, the 8hp Kohler just isn't enough for what I'm gonna do with it. :mrgreen:

I've seen them, too rich for my blood. I'd like to find a 18 to 20 something horse for $100 to $150.
I had one off an arrow board that they use on the highways, a 5hp one. Electric start, needs a fuel pump for supply, and needs an alternator. I got rid of it because I didn't see a use in the future. I can't remember who I gave it to either. :oops: :x
