I had a stick snap off of my fittings and fortunately was able to get it repaired without replacing the whole cylinder. I wasn’t sure how much I’d have to fight with the extra pressure if I didn’t take the lines off so figured it’d be easier.

@@TacklingTheGiants so sometimes I’ll do a beer can chicken and smoke them. A lot of times I’ll break the chicken down into breasts, thighs, legs and just cook them with whatever. If I let them grow too long the males can get a little tough and then the crockpot is the best bet.

@@southernyankeeinnovations thank you. So your happy with the Delaware overall? No problems with them? Good meat and egg laying? Check all the boxes or is there anything lacking? Have you found any other breed you think is better?

@@TacklingTheGiants they’re not as bulky as say a Cornish cross but the rooster is great he doesn’t bother myself or the kids. I’d count on an egg every other day for the most part sometime more sometimes less per bird. Fertility has been good with my incubation. It is a little more flavorful than a cornish.

@@southernyankeeinnovations thank you so much for responding

@@TacklingTheGiants no problem. I did start with hatchery birds and they are not the same quality as the birds I have now. Definitely worth the initial investment on good quality birds. Bred to Perfection podcast by Kenny T. Has a lot of good information.

I really appreciate that. I never would have thought about it but I’ll bet that’s what it was. Mine was 93 non ethanol and it was typically hot when it did it. I’ll keep that in mind! Thanks!

No need to bleed. It’ll push the air back into the reservoir where it’ll be removed from the system.

@@southernyankeeinnovations thank you Sir..

So far so good! It has some wobble but it keeps the cows contained on the other side and I can climb over it without any issues.

I have since had much better hatch rates. It was my first time incubating eggs and the fertility of the eggs wasn’t 100% either

You’d think they’d allow them to be configured the same. I know people knock echo but for their price point and quality I’m not sure those people have actually used them and put them to the test.

I can’t say I’m surprised. It’s all too expensive now.

If the orange ring is seated properly it would make me think maybe there is a burr on the cylinder causing it to catch

Pointy side down

I agree 100%

Are they rusted up or anything or just seem to be stuck?

Seems to just be stuck

@@terryneighbours9 maybe just needs a little bit bigger hammer(just make sure you don’t hit the ram)

Got it done with 3lb hammer. Now on the 2nd cylinder there seems to be a bunch of air trapped in the cylinder not allowing the rod to come out. Feels like it’s pulling into big spring..

Any tips on getting that trapped air out?

I’ve used it probably 2 hours so far so good. Starts first pull no issues yet.

Unfortunately I don’t but I would guess 24” or so.

@@southernyankeeinnovations Thanks got a kit but trying to find the power beyond. Where did you connect yours?

@@mauriciopasos2129 I don’t have the tractor anymore to get good pictures. You have the pull the right rear tire off and the valve should be behind it.

@@southernyankeeinnovations thanks, you looks like the connection goes on the left and right side of the seat.

@@mauriciopasos2129 I had taken it to the dealer for other work so I had them tie it in while it was there. I believe the left side of the seat was the return line and the right was to the valve

Glad to help

I’m not an expert by any means but I am glad I was able to help you out!!

I would assume it will still work. Could put a push button switch directly to the starter.

Yes sir….so the things I have learned tho is to keep your circulating pumps on. I shut mine off and my ac couldn’t cool the heat exchanger in the hvac enough to cool the room but with the pumps circulating I have no issues. The transition seasons can be a struggle you have to pick one or the other because you can’t cool the 180 degree water so I’ll usually just leave the boiler on and open the windows to cool the house instead of the ac then when it starts to warm up at night I’ll stop using my boiler for the year.

I saw that on TikTok. That’s why I’m assuming I was able to get it for $440 instead the $800 they are now. For under $200 that is a steal!

You know you don't have to make us feel sick for having to pay way more you A

So I did not secure the shelves to the pipe. We have 2 kids and it’s been a couple years since we put them up and they haven’t moved. You could take a 3/16 drill bit and drill through the pipe and screw the shelves down though.

That’s the ideal situation but depending on the shelf length and placement for spacing it may not work every time.

You can do it with fluid still in the system. Even draining it you’ll still have fluid in the lines anyway.

I do still love them. These Delawares I have go back to the Oregon Delawares and they’re much larger than the hatchery ones I bought the prior year. I currently have 2 roosters, one over 5 hens and one over 4 hens. I used the feed with both Cornish cross and the Delawares. The Cornish cross I plan to use this method with this coming year. If I do it again with the Delawares I would like to have a control group and a regular group to see if it impacted their egg production. I didn’t get my first Delaware egg until 30 weeks. I hatched 2 batches of Delawares just over a month apart and granted now it’s starting to get to the temperature drop but I am just getting the second Delaware group to lay now.(3 eggs out of 5 hens). You can see when this video was posted on an approximate time frame. They are very gentle. The hatchery rooster I had did get aggressive with my children however so far so good with the 2 I have now.

Yeah that would have been a great idea. It’s getting close to being ready to fire up again. Some heat loss it normal but can’t remember how many degree per 100’ anymore.

Unfortunately I don’t know a lot about HVAC. My initial thought would be that it wouldn’t be needed.

@@southernyankeeinnovations I figured it out I didn’t end up using the relay unhooked the heat wire ran it to the common on ranco ran the normally closed to the heat terminal and normally open to the fan terminal set my temps and it worked I do understand that some furnaces have a problem with back feeding the ac compressor when jumping to the fan terminal so may not work for all furnaces

@@TooPoorForADirtFloor glad you came to a quick solution. It won’t be long and I’ll have to start mine up again. In Virginia the HVAC guys where I’m at don’t understand the setup very well. I gave them the diagram and they still wouldn’t wire it up so I took it upon myself to do it.

@@southernyankeeinnovations there pretty common in West Virginia where I’m from but live in Missouri now and don’t want to pay $500 a month for heat

@@TooPoorForADirtFloor yeah I am ready to switch over to heat. My AC bills were nearly $400 this summer. With all their rate hikes I should be 150-175 this winter

Thank you sir. It’s been awhile now. I believe it was this one www.reliableaftermarketparts.com/products/hym40-0179-hyd-remote-valve-kit-4-cyl-1?currency=USD&variant=32297112862803&stkn=74b0779be3fd&gclid=CjwKCAjwyNSoBhA9EiwA5aYlbwwzEItHcGcyjFF4xya8SAARMvFMbM8hKoLCLb5muFWeL44Kyimb0BoCowYQAvD_BwE

Thanks! I am glad to hear it.

Are you getting smoke when it turns over?

My quick and easy answer would be 2 fence posts and having them really close but not connected. If I think of something throughout the day I’ll let you know

@@southernyankeeinnovations Good point. I will think about it.

Yes sir. I used self tappers that you use to secure trailer decking. They’re designed to go through metal and wood. Just one on top and then when I screw the boards down the side and put the board on the back it works like a clamp. It works best to have a hand to apply pressure to the backside of the post. They do bend as your pressing against them to get the screw started. You need to have the screw start near the side of the T-post and not in the middle(less metal).

Once this stuff starts coming up I’m going to test soaking seed

Thank you very much for the comment! Im fortunate enough now that I don’t need to use a 27” bar but good to know it’ll do it if I need it. I’ve had my eyes on the big boy saw echo has but just can’t justify it.

It’s the large plug. Shows it in the video.

You cost yourself 2 days down time. Had to fix that sentence for you. He didn’t order the part for you and it clearly shows in the video which one it is.

Only 2 more to go! Be nice when big reds here working

Always advertising lol

It’s a very frustrating process. I handed a wiring diagram to the hvac guy that installed my units when we built and he just shrugged and said he didn’t know how to do it. Let me try and look at it later and see if I can figure anything out for tiu

@@southernyankeeinnovations Thank you. I do know that I had my ranco set oh H1, not sure if that has something to do with it. As far as the yellow wire, I tied into the yellow going out to the outside unit coming off of #1 on the 24v coil. And the yellow wire coming off of existing thermostat and the yellow air handler wires I tied into #2 on the coil. I think that’s how the diagram explained it..maybe I misinterpreted.

That sounds and looks like how it should be. I wouldn’t think the H1 would impact that at all.

Thumb 0 trap 1

Hopefully this weekend it’ll be dry enough

I could start it in gear but would still have to push the glide shifter into forward or reverse. If it were either forward or reverse when started you would have to go to neutral before you can move.

It’s cheap insurance for sure

I picked them up at my dealer. I thought they were in one kit but I bought another one and they weren’t in there either.

@@southernyankeeinnovations Did you happen to write down the number of the inner seal kit? My dealer id telling me they are not available. Mine is also a 4300 with a 430 loader.

When I get back home in a few days I’ll try and remember to look around for something

@@southernyankeeinnovations thank you it would be appreciated.

Sorry for the delay! AHC16982

All I remember was the crush washers that went under the fitting on the hose mounting on the valve

Hope it helped! Thank you!
