Two women at Pacific AG Irrigation loved my square since one of them used
to own one.  It wouldn't turn over as I went to leave, so they let me jump
it off their van.  It didn't help, so my son came and got me with our tow
dolly and we towed it home.  Turns out the small starter wire was sloppy
and had fallen off!  Tram told me to adjust the valves as it was due, so I
just finished adjusting them and I'm 'back on the road again'!
