Does anybody know if New Era is still in business? I haven't looked online yet, just thought of it and figured I'd ask.

I wished mine was,I think my pump has taken a turn for the worst. Just finished hauling some hay, turned it off to unload,went to crank it after 30 or some minutes and no crank. Had a bottle of water so I dumped it on the pump,it fired right up :scratch:

Doesn't look like I'll be making any long trips any time soon :?


I did however get my cheapo 06 ford powerjoke runin today,super pumped about that :)

From what I saw on FB he put two batteries in it and it fired up. It sounded okay in the video too.

Thanks..... :)

I hope it does to,motor runs like a champ. It was a pita to get it to fire up after setting so long but after running awhile it cleared up. I let it run for about an hour and a half before shutting it back down. I hope Monday morning it fires up and runs the same.

There are a few running around up here that have all the emission crap removed with studs and updated oil coolers that are really nice. I'd have to get a smoking deal to own one though.

Hope everybody is enjoying there weekend. Cant remember who's all a Veteran on here, but I thank you for your service, and all you've done for your country.

Been busy today with parades, now a few of us are at the local speedway, awaiting our turns as the half time show. We take out the deuces, give any and all kids and vets a ride around the track, then they let us loose for several laps of racing.
Last year we had 5 deuces and a 5ton tractor with empty fuel tanker racing. :D
