I once spend a couple of months operating a JD 1075 combine, made in Germany and ran like crap until we figured out the aftermarket fuel filter was clogged with crap. http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/agrifoto/008/41.jpg this is not the one, the one I was on had a 24 foot front. BTW that

How is a letterbox going to go in a kitchen, I can see the clock working. Nah you're better off sending me the letterbox, as I have a need for a newy. Is it in the shape of a tractor or combine harvester, perhaps in keeping with recent discussion a cotton picker shaped letterbox? Yeah I can
