Well Paul Harvey that would be great news!

Isn't that just a downspout out of the muffler?

Yes it is, Don't know why I called it the manifold. These tractors also have the muffler under the hood.

 

[amberg]

Did it bust the manifold?

No. only the muffler, and the pipe under the hood, ( thank god! )

I got to thinking it should only be that but wasn’t sure if each model was different.

The wife’s mower decided to start leaking hydraulic fluid from the transaxle.

We screwed up majorly with those carrots I planted in the first week of July. They almost always take 7-10 days to come up, so on the sixth day after planting we flame weed the beds. Well, this time, even with minimal rain and pelleted seed, they were up on the sixth day, so we didn't flame them. Major bummer. Probably spent 12-15 hours with a wheel hoe and double that knife weeding them. Probably shoulda tilled them in and cut our losses, but we stuck it out. Finally finished knife weeding on Wednesday.

Sorry to see that. We lost a lamb this week. Not fun, but much less of a loss than a cow.
