We have 2 taxes on fuel the first is an excise the second is GST (Goods and Services Tax) of 10% the GST is on the Fuel and the excise so we pay a tax on a tax
May I make a suggestion so that Farmalls thread about the Cyclops is not swamped by talk of fuel , can the posts about fuel be put in a new thread please
Thanks

I thought hard about grabbing that tractor, but was afraid of what the engine might need. I felt it was well worth the asking price.
Keep us posted on what it takes to get it back into shape. I'm curious, no experience with the Kubotas.

You saw it on marketplace? The guy was very cool that sold it.

Sounded like it had gotten warm a few times, not sure if just underpowered for the grass he was mowing, or more likely the rad is all gross.

I helped my brother pull the engine for his 15HP Kubota, but haven't done much more than that and maintenance on the 2182.

Yes, yes it was

Once it warms up I'll take a better look. Working everyday but today, and it's 9 degrees.

Yeah I saw it earlier this week. I'd LIKE another project, but don't NEED another project. Still have the wife's ongoing situation, and work has been unusually slow. Ideally I think an 1872-2072 would be my next project, but I'm in no rush given current circumstances. If a nice one came up reasonable though I might be tempted to pick it up.

This reminds me to hit you up in the spring for that deck.

Yeah, this guy agreed to sell it Tuesday, but he wasn't feeling great so I didn't pick it up until later in the week.

Got it inside the shop today. Messing around, good on oil and coolant, newer filters.

Glow plugs work and get 9v. Fuel pump works. Cranks good. No smoke, but I also noticed the fuel solenoid on the pump doesn't engage or disengage (move) on it's own, even when cranking, which I figured it would.

12 degrees though, so I threw it on the battery charger for warmer weather. Going to pickup a diesel compression tester tomorrow after work and check that out firsthand this week.

It's yours. It's still sitting at my cousin's in Richmond. Once the snow clears and it warms up a bit I'll go grab it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
