GUTLESS up hills only

Just get a sticker like this....

My feeling is many who are new into the culture are ‘young’ and a bit clueless to the fact these really are just simple tractors.

Stickers can be fun...

Don’t feel bad. Mines gutless up hills and down hills and on flat roads. It has a healthy engine but it’s pretty much a gasoline powered Diesel engine

Haha maybe drive one with a 2h in it then it will feel fast.

Yeah, or a 3B

Many moons ago had similar problem. Gas tank was sealed with plastic goo which dissolved and wound up in the bottom of float bowl. When going up hills goo moved against main jets, blocking fuel flow.

I actually own two vehicles which have industrial engines for their driveline. The first of course being the 60. The second is a Saab 96 which uses a 1700 cc Ford V4 engine originally intended to be a low hp/high torque equipment engine. Saab’s Motorsport department tunes it up to around 180hp by the end of its rally career. Much more power than that and crankshafts started to break as did transmissions.

OK, this is post #48. Have I waited an appropriate period of time?

I like how the speedometer has 55 mph highlighted in orange....

Well, you know, up a long steep grade in a 60 means getting in touch with your patience. Often thought of JATO rocket strapped to the roof rack.
