Sometimes the hoses from the sensor to ecu get holes in them and produce ghost blockages. And the odd time the port on the ecu goes bad, so switch the hose to an unused port but don’t forget to change which port those run to in your configuration. That fixed two ghost blockages for us this year.

I was born in 71, that little bud is making me feel old, but i like it better than the new stuff, so i'm not old. All the different stages from prepping the field's all the way through harvest, is like relearning with you guy's. When i was a kid, my family did a lot of corn and alfalfa over here in lower mid michigan, because we had dairy cow's, a few hogs, along with around 3000 acres of corn, and a couple hundred of alfalfa, and i really miss all that. Thanks for the video's, because no matter what you grow, it's still great every year. G-d bless.

When I was a kid my great grandfather had thousands of acres of land and although he never farmed anything he still had a tractor to keep it mowed down to keep the wildlife from wanting to hide out in the land and sneak up to the front of the property where he had chickens, goats, sheep, horses, peacocks, and I can't even tell you how many other random animals he constantly had in and out of there that were easy targets due to some sort of illness or injury while they were rehabilitated on his property. Not to mention most of them always needed fresh hay, feed, water, medications, supplies to tend to injuries, etc. If anyone who he allowed to help with the animals let alone touch his tractors ran those tractors or even his trucks below a 1/4 of a tank he would have an absolute conniption fit because he was convinced if you ran the gas to past that line before empty, you were sucking in all the gunk and crud that contaminated the gas and all the crud and gunk would clog the fuel lines, fuel filter, and eventually seize the entire motor up. lol. He would explain to them for hours how all that stuff sinks to the bottom of the gas tank and as you use the gas and get closer to using the gas on the bottom of the tank it would start sucking up all the bad stuff. IDK how true that is but I can tell you 70+ years later those very same tractors and trucks still have all the original motors, my uncle keeps the exact same maintenance schedule as my great grandfather, and every single one of them still run like champs and are still used to do the very same jobs as years ago plus some. For that very reason every vehicle, 4 wheeler, dirt bike, etc I have ever had I never run them past that line before hitting the empty line and they all lasted many years beyond their expectancy.
