I have my 12 hp apart to replace the governor gear. Where does everyone/anyone purchase their internal parts for their engines? I am not sure yet what all I have to replace, but I am thinking about where I should go to order them.
The bad news is that we are getting about 6 to 8 inches of snow now. Darn Darn Darn. Bad timing
Thanks and happy snow blowing/plowing

Steve,
You can have the rain. I would have preferred 12" of snow to more rain. We have had to much rain this year. I'm ready for a good old frozen dumping.

I know I've seen the answer to my question on here before, but I'm not having much luck locating it, so I guess I'll have to ask: I just got my front blade adjusted and mounted (currently on my 782, eventually it'll go to the 1450 & a thrower back on the 782). My question is on the trip release - is it most common to release (allow it to trip) for snow, where obstacles may be hidden under the snow? Conversely, I'd assume the trip is normally locked for dirt & other warm weather pushing. Right? Wrong? Other?
Our forecast was just changed to include us as the northern border line of the blizzard warning that was previously supposed to stay south of us. Maybe I'll need to put the thrower on instead of the blade. We'll see... (I'm not a big believer in most of the forecasts - it seems to have become more of an entertainment and ratings thing than accurate forecasts, especially for anyone not in the twin cities metro area... $.02)

Greg...Yes, let it trip. The only time I let it trip is the winter. You'll be glad you did when you hit something frozen to the ground. I push snow with my 73 in 3rd gear and 3600r's and have found plenty of stuff hiding in fresh snow <font size="-2">(toys, bicycle parts, cobble stones....)</font> That 73 is a lot faster than the 102 I had so I would guess the gear ratio's had been changed on one of them. By the sounds of our weather we will <font size="-2">should</font> end up with more rain than snow. It is starting to snow now but their calling for 40° tomorrow, that is not good for us as the ground can't absorb any more water.
Questions for the guys with front end loaders...
What system pressure are you running? What bore & stroke are the pair of cylinders on your main boom? Do you know either the flow rate from your pump, or can you tell me how many seconds it takes to raise the main boom? I realize answers may vary widely. I'm putting together a hydraulic system for my 126 and plan to add a loader at some point. I've already estimated what I think my pressure and flow rate should be based on the loader cylinders available. Just looking to make sure my estimates are in line with what everyone else's reality.
Right now I'm looking at 5 gpm at 1000 psi which takes about 4.5 hp with the pump I'm looking at That's near the limit of what can be transferred using the pulley on the flywheel which is what I'm planning to run my pump from. I really don't know that I'd want to drain more than 4.5 hp to run a hydraulic system either. I'm suspecting that maybe I should give up some flow rate to increase the operating pressure.
Thanks,
Jerry
