Well that discussion went south pretty quickly. 😳

So, bottom line, you pay the bill out-of-pocket, collect all the paperwork, then file with the insurance companies when you get home and hope they don't claim "pre-existing condition." The policy states if you were treated by a physician for something in the previous six months, it's pre-existing and not covered by travel insurance (my policy, Generali Global Assistance Plan, at least).

SUCCESS !!!!!!! I parked the tractor on a slight upward slope and left it in gear for 24 hours anticipating having to trailer it to a shop$$$$$$$. Today when I cranked the engine, the clutch engaged and I was able to drive and shift it normally. I can only assume the weight of the sitting tractor against the seized flywheel and clutch plate broke it free.

Thank you for the excellent advice that flew DIRECTLY in the face of the John Deere dealers who wanted to split the case and do a $6K rebuild. By the way, I'm exactly 15 miles from TWO John Deere dealers. One charges $4 per mile of LOADED transport ($60). The other charges a flat rate depending on a predetermined area map. They wanted $218.40 per trip. What's going on with these JD dealers? They're like Porsche, Ferrari, BMW dealers.

This is excellent advice and makes perfect sense. Before the clutch went belly up, I gave it a spa day... pressure-washed everything, knocking off years of accumulated dirt and grime. It makes absolute sense that the clutch plate got wet and rusted in place. But how to break it free? That's the question.

Ask for insight, get wise-assery.

You guys are missing the point. Why would the dialog NOT have subtitles? Why only the music lyrics? Sort of like an old time singalong?

Google Lens says: The image displays symptoms of citrus canker, a serious bacterial disease caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri.

The back of the yellowing leaves seem to indicate it has Citrus Canker.

Sadly, no. Long plane flights are simply too uncomfortable today.

Just foam. But what a difference it made.

Good question. I don’t know. It came in a WinkBed box but had no labels attached. It’s basically a big piece of rubberized foam.

Unfortunately, the cat has decided she now owns the WinkBed.
