Something tells me 19 mph ?

What speed does a 165 multipower do?

Just 30kph, they're not quite as nippy as the multipower 135s.

Saw this absolute beauty in Charleville show on Sunday. Certainly one to be proud of

I'd say proper butlers headlamps and genuine headlamp surrounds are getting difficult to get these days are they?

Yes but they deffenitely do come up, I've found 2 before lying in old falling down sheds, you just have to keep your eyes peeled, more often than not when you find them the back of the lenses is all rusted but Agriline a Buckleys sell new backings for them so all you have to do is replace the Bvtlers lenses in the new ones with the original Butler lenses from the old one.

I'd say 120 for a good straight one with no damage to the fins or pipes. It will probably be of a better build quality than the new one.

What's the reasoning for steering wheel whine coming from both a David Brown 1190 and Zetor 8111. I would think new filters would help. Fluid levels are good before anyone asks👍

I’d use the ATF can, the LHM is commonly used as brake fluid in some tractors.

 

[Kylemcnamara]

Is the LHM suited to David Brown brakes??

[agrimax]

You could use either for the Brown but LHM is the right stuff.

 

[MF30]

I’m not sure of that, but usually a tractor of that vintage would use Dot 3 brake fluid for the brakes.

Do not put synthetic fluid in a DB/Case brake system. They only ever used mineral oil.
