The N6 had an engine fire.

[70ds]

My father in law was cutting with the N6. He said it started to pull down so he stopped and backed out of the wheat. Then a black cloud of smoke rolled overhead. He baled out and found the engine was on fire. He was able to keep it from burning the whole combine. Luckily it was insured. I am sure they will total it though because replacing the engine would cost way more than the machine is worth. On with some pics. It doesn't look too bad till you climb up in the engine compartment.








Questions and comments welcome.

That really sucks!!! Do you know what they are going to get to replace it?

They don't know yet. They are shopping around. They are thinking silver or green. Depends on what they find.
