6 pointsFound this on the net and close buy. A little ruff. Also has a mowing deck and a snow blower attachment. The deck and blower I am selling. I have two walk behinds. In the end most likely will end up as a plow tractor for the winter months. It is real dirty from the mowing. But i have time to make it right. Here is a few picks.

2 pointsThe ground has had 10,000 gallons of water setting on top of it for 12+ years so it's pretty hard. We made a dent in it today. Rain forecasted this week, so hopefully it will take on some moisture and soften up,

2 pointsGet it from the shop Describe ALL of the issues and circumstances about it as much as you can. Let RS help diagnose and give a plan of attack and you follow the instructions. Some guys on here know those Onans well. Viola, a running machine if it isn't something catastrophic going on

1 pointYesterday I installed the rear oil seal on the K301 on my Cub Cadet 123, today wanted to get the PTO reinstalled but then realized that I really needed to replace the friction disc in it as long as I had things apart, then realized that I didn't have an adjustment gauge to assemble it properly.... so I ordered both. Then, on my C160, I rebuilt the mechanical fuel pump and reinstalled it (installed, but bypassed with the electric fuel pump). The mating surface of the mechanical fuel pump had a noticable bow or "warp" to it.... it was not flat at all.... so I filed it down to be nice and flat. It installed nicely. Sometime when I have nothing better to do (or if/when the electric fuel pump quits), I will reconnect the mechanical pump and test it out. Did a lot of cleaning on the front end of the tractor, then reinstalled the hood and called it a night.

1 pointI had a shift at work in the morning. I then worked on getting my 42” mowing deck back together and visiting with family. I’m thinking I might do some painting on it, as I have a few days off. It’s 90% apart now so might as well do it while I have the time and the weather is good.

1 point6-8 days delivery for the oil pan gasket so I've caught up on some chores around the house and painted the front wheel weights...but this is a good time (pun) to set the timing...I'll attach the ground wire with a new grommet and dialectric grease when it's ready to brrrrrrr.

1 pointHere is my 65' Lawn Ranger we named "Randy". Last July at a show it quit. I figured out the intake valve was stuck shut. I've previously made some posts about it, but never really in-depth ones. Here I will take a HH60 Tecumseh of a 656, rebuild it, paint it, and refresh the tractor. Here are some before and after photos before I pulled it apart. It still needs cleaned, but this will be a progressive thread.

1 pointIt's always a good idea to resurface the bell housing as well. The flat that makes contact with the clutch plate. I've used a belt sandder to do since I don't have the machining tools to mill or lathe it flat. Pull the bell housing off to inspect it. Also make sure the roll pin which holds that little bracket to the hoop is intact. If that breaks you can't adjust it enough to get the tension tight enough.

1 pointI wish you were closer. I'd have you bring it over. It would be fun to troubleshoot it.

1 pointSeveral years back I was sitting next to my customized 953 which @Pullstart now owns and has named "Hot Wheels". A man in his late 50s or early 60s and an older gentleman, his father, stopped to talk. The older gentleman was very intrigued by the modifications I had made and talked about the Wheel Horse dealership he once ran. As they left to look at the rest of the show the son thanked me saying his dad was suffering from dementia and that was the longest conversation he had entered into with anyone in over a year. The Magic of a Wheel Horse, just can't beat it! I wish I had written down the name of the dealership but that took place before this thread started.

1 pointSnow plow/dozer blade that came off a Charger 9. Complete, functional, but just a bit rusty. Would clean up pretty easy. Already have 3 plows so dont need another.
-
1 pointNext, I removed the head and cleaned it up. First I used a wire wheel, then used 400 grit on the mounting surface, and finally stepped my way down to 1000. I painted it with a high temp metallic silver that I had kicking around.

1 pointAfter mowing this morning did some maintenance on 654. Have had to tighten left rear hub set bolt a few times- seems to keep coming loose. Gave it a much needed wash too. We've had so much rain & my back yard is really wet. I usually dont take off the wheel weights & 100lbs that I put on hitch for winter plowing. Decided to take all the weight off to help from making ruts in grass. Of course it would help if I lost some weight too! Its not much of a looker with its crappy paint job but its really a good working tractor.

1 pointAfter I pulled the engine, I tore into the new one. Its off of a 656, so that means its an HH60. It looks pretty good on the inside, but I'll still be re-ringing and resealing it.

1 pointCompleted assembly of a K321 I had bored 0.10 over and the crank ground also.. Found green plastic throughout the inside during disassembly due to broken oil sensor. Dang forgot to install balance gears...oh well!

1 pointSounds like it was originally a BlackHood series tractor (model C-175) 1980-1984. Those plastic fenders rarely survived, but can easily be swapped out for fenders off a 300, 400 or 500 series. No drilling, just bolt in place of the plastic ones, even has the large hole for the fuel tank fill. I have a few BlackHoods here currently. The C-85 still has its plastic fender intact.

1 pointI had the opportunity to attend a short course today on tractor safety . The Badger Steam & Gas Engine Club put this on as a requirement for all juniors who wish to drive a tractor around on club grounds at their show. https://badgersteamandgas.com/ Rightfully so since any given accidents can shut a show down without a question. Interesting and since I am committed to give a presentation at other shows this was a note taking experience for me in my quest for being a certified instructor. This was mostly centered around big tractors but it still applies to GTs. Lots of farm safety included with loading, tieing down, and grain bin safety. On a tractor's center of gravity and how quickly one can meet a misfortune in a PTO. A nice primer on steam.

1 pointJust did some math 408 miles at 10.5 MPG dragging a trailer (possibly worse mpg) = 38.6 gallons @ $4.15 = $160 each way so $320 just for fuel. (might need to up that cost by the end of June and the PA prices coming back) I can make it down without stopping for gas if no trailer in tow, I hate stopping because of the time vortex. Stop for only 10 minutes but somehow you're 30 minutes or more behind schedule. IDK how that works but it always works! LOL
