To: Rio

Chains are not foolproof. I was returning home from the field with our Massey Harris 26 combine when the engine quit and wouldn’t start. Didn’t fire once. It had a 4 cylinder Chrysler engine. I described the symptoms to my father and he said, “It’s the timing chain. It probably jumped a cog.” He replaced the chain & the engine ran for us as long as we had the machine.
