14 pointsSo I'm down to two Black hoods after my A-60 started it's way to Wisconsin... And, well there's this B-80 pops up on MP for $50. Motor and trans are free, tires all have air, seat is to die for... so, Here's the obligatory pics and what I've done so far: Carb dip - 3 times New battery New battery cables Motor oil change (bad) Trans oil change (really bad) New fuel line and filter Fresh rec gas New air filter Mouse house removal She runs, but still getting some surging... Still on the plate: Dial in the carb / fix surge issue Tires are tired... Grease Tie rods Rewire lights I'm sure something else will pop up... My C-125 is currently set up as a plow mule and back up snow machine. Not sure if this B-80 would be better suited to snow or mule duties... IMG_4279.mov

13 pointsSo the folks working on my house cleaned up most of the debris from the fire. That being said there is alot of small stuff everywhere. Siding, drywall, burnt pieces of lumber, and whatever else you can imagine. Of course this makes mowing a bit of a challenge. So I bought something to drag around and pick it up. Not to mention it will help smooth some of the ruts left by heavy equipment. At least to the point they won't snag the mower deck. I'll report back how it works later this evening.

11 pointsI adjusted the lift links. It sits about 4 inches off the ground now. No not really. It's not "60 inch mower deck heavy", but you know it's there for sure. I'm gonna add another hole in the hitch to slide it forward. It has a radiant for rotating to both sides but it won't get used that way here. I think that will lighten the leveraged load a bit on the lift arm. First test was the gravel driveway. Got rid of the studder bumps on the first pass. So far so good.

8 pointsSplit some wood today and the C-121 was on log splitter hauling duty.

8 pointsSeptember 15, 1962, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons' "Sherry" hits the top of the pop music charts. It was the start of a remarkable run of hits. Valli (born Francis Casteluccio) had been hard at work trying to become a star for the better part of a decade before the Four Seasons achieved their breakthrough. They had come together as a group in several stages over the previous four years, changing their name in 1961 from the Four Lovers after failing an audition at a New Jersey bowling alley called The Four Seasons.

5 pointsI learned this afternoon that Paul Benzinger (oldredrider) passed away the week before last. I talked to his wife, who told me he had been battling cancer for quite a while, and gave me the okay to pass the word along to RedSquare. I didn't know Paul well, only really met him once, at the big show in 2021. We talked about the engines he had rebuilt and had for sale at the show, and generally just had a real easy conversation about Wheel Horses and Kohlers, and just life. I know some of you guys knew him much better, and I'm looking forward to hearing some of your stories. Rest in peace, Paul, and thanks for the chat. @nylyon

5 pointsB-80 would make a fine plow mule with that 8" Brinly you have. I wouldn't even think twice about throwing a ten on. Heck maybe even a 12 just for a hold my beer and watch this. Guessing you would run out of traction before power in hard dirt. I had a no name eight that was a house mule and it did just fine.

5 pointsI bought a lift table from Harbor Freight years ago, one of the best tools ever made for us old codgers.

5 pointsOn a rural road, a state trooper pulled a farmer over and said, “Sir, do you realize your wife fell out of the car several miles back?” To which the farmer replied: “Thank God, I thought I had gone deaf!”

4 pointsYes, it is two bolts holding the base. Also two fittings for the inlet and outlet oil lines. Both lines (on our tractor) are metal tubing so you cannot count on much movement. If I were to tackle this, I’d remove the seat, fender, left rear tire, the fuel tank, and any other bits in the way to get easier access. Lastly, remember that the oil in this system circulates in the hydro pump and motor. Any dirt or contaminant entering the system could cause damage so a through cleaning before cracking open the oil line or filter is the wise move and keeping the work area clean is the best practice.

4 pointsHead bolts painted. Engine lifting strap painted. Valve cover assembly removed.

4 pointsCan't hurt... expired in 2017, so either use it for bicycles chain oil or put it on the deck and see what happens...

3 pointsPicked up some HEAVY Bolens front cast iron weights. They had "BOLENS" cast into the face, so I filled them with some JB Weld. Decided while I was painting them, that my JD rear weights needed to be red too! Now all my iron weights are red. Just one set of plastic fronts are the odd-balls now. Started doing a little prep work for an upcoming parade in our local festival.

3 pointsWeight is traction. Putt Putt has pulled plenty of 10” and 12” plows, and has a much smaller belt contact patch. Just add weight. And tires. And more weight. @Blasterdad shows up with a B-80 and plows all day.

3 pointsInteresting assist torsion spring return thingy on the Clutch pedal - is there a heavy spring in the OE position too? (or was this a PO backyard "fix") If that's it, there may not be enough force to keep the drivebelt tight enough...

3 pointsWas fortunate enough to be first in line to get this on the weekend. Good shape - light surface rust only - PO said stored inside. Tires all hold air although showing their age. Really good score. Is this a model UW-643 or the 7-2211 The only way to tell is by the decal style. There is no serial number plate. And what's the deal with that decal. I could count on one hand the number of times I've seen it.

3 pointsMy suspicion is when you arced the rush of power broke down a sheet metal to sheet metal contact point in the ground path that was somewhat corroded anyway.
-
3 pointsHallelujah. My persistence paid off and all your help she runs again!! Took ground from battery to engine mount and she's alive! From the mower graveyard given new life then I killed her and brought her back to life again haha 😄

3 pointsCylinder head removed. Cylinder head bead blasted. Head bolts as removed. Head bolts bead blasted. Head bolts ready for paint. Head bolt washers as removed. These are not cleaned up as I have new hardened washers to install. Engine with head removed. There is very little carbon buildup or obvious wear.

3 pointsExcellent harmony to follow the voice of the lead singer. Days gone by...

3 pointsIt would never break under an S-10, but it is a good bit wider. The 8.8 can be had in S-10 is width with the same 31-spline components an f-150 got.

3 pointsYou came to the wrong place if you’re asking for advice on that! These guys are a bunch of enablers 🤣🤣🤣

3 pointsChange a couple of pulleys and maybe a belt, and “awaaaaaay we go!” (NOT to the moon) (Only saw the first two frames of the FB post since I’m not a member!)
-
3 pointsWith the modern PT we were told to expect replacement of the deck between 7 and 10 years - or less. Maybe this ATV guy is on to something protecting his deck with a coating of rubber.

2 pointsThis reminds me of the "Mr. Coffee" I bought at Wallyworld. I opened the box to unpack it. All the packing was there, but the unit was used! The filter was still wet! Some one bought a new one, put the old one in the box ( from the bottom) and returned it. They got a new one free. Similar thing happened at HD. I was looking for a new well pressure tank. Saw one on a pallet, in the box. When I pulled it out, the bottom of the box was wet. On inspection, the tank was used and returned. Some people are real dirt bags!

2 pointsI used Lubriplate for years to coat and waterproof carbon steel hydro turbine parts. It sticks and holds up well My main use now is to lube and waterproof bolt threads.

2 pointsWhy was the cucumber mad? Because it was in a pickle! How did the farmer find his lost cow? He tractor down.

2 pointsConsidering, I can catch up to my tractors in high range and 3rd gear in a fast walk… I’m pretty sure they’re not fast enough to do that. Well… on second thought maybe the Command powered 23hp C-85 might be though.😁
