I replaced a part on my jd 6930, kind of daunting as it involved removing a fair bit of fuellines of which I wasn't sure I'd remember how to put them back.

One of them I found out was crankshaft sensor missing and I got a message that the waterseperator was full, which I figured was the other one. I figured I ruined the crankshaft sensor when I swopped it into the new part. I tried to drain the waterbowl but only fuel came it.
As it turned out, the electrical plugs where the same and I swopped them

"Well what were you expecting?"
"You said we were going to see some goblins!"

I heard something other than the usual knocks , squeals and grinding that the digger makes .
I’d been driving it all morning and mum was back with them at lunchtime. Looks like the old ford is staying out for a while until they fledge
With a big birthday coming up soon, we took some sneaky pics of Dad proving he could still tackle the rings! Leg raises, one handed pull ups and planking challenges! He doesn’t know we have uploaded
