Hi Guys, lately I’ve been playing a Computer game called Farm Simulator 25. There is a large community of people who make additions for the game. I play when I have free time or if the weather is too crappy to work on my full sized tractors. Recently with the assistance of Chat GPT, I’ve been learning how to use the 3D modeling program Blender. Now I can make additions for my game. One I’m working on now is a 308/312/C-85/C-141 group of tractors. Chat GPT also comes in when handling the technical side of converting the Blender files to work in my game. It handles the technical stuff and I’m the tester/R and D person/modeller in the equation. Here’s some pic’s.

November 13, 1982, Near the end of a weeklong national salute to Americans who served in the Vietnam War, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial is dedicated in Washington, D.C. after a march to its site by thousands of veterans of the conflict. The long-awaited memorial was a simple V-shaped black-granite wall inscribed with the names of the 57,939 Americans who died in the conflict, arranged in order of death, not rank, as was common in other memorials.

If virtual Wheel Horses are anything like actual Wheel Horses, you might want to go ahead and purchase more storage.

I used to have a virtual Wheel Horse, But it ransomware!

DOT has been wondering who is removing rusty old sign posts and what the heck they were doing with them. Now we know, they become tractor frames.

I missed post #4 about the fuel pump. Your starter and electrical system will thank you if you decide to go with an electric fuel pump. One of my 520,s had the original fuel pump on it when I got it and it seemed to be a healthy one, would squirt fuel across shop, of course it took quite a few revolutions of the engine to get fuel system primed back up if it sat for any length of time. After installing electric fuel pump all I have to do is turn key on, let pump run for a second or two, and almost an instant start. I prefer the old mechanical pumps on the older WH's just for sake of being original but the electric fuel pumps are a much better fit for anything with the fuel tank below the carb and you dont have to worry about the diaphragm of a mechanical leaking fuel into the crankcase. Here is a couple pics of the one I installed on my 520.

For the price of a fuel pump repair kit you could buy an electric fuel pump and never have to worry about gasoline contaminating your engine oil.

All kidding aside, the proportions look right. Does Terry @Vinylguy make virtual decals??

Why are fish so smart? They live in schools!

Stephen is a great person and as said was a very early member on this forum. My family will be praying for him and his family. @nylyon- if you are in contact with him, please let him know there are people all over praying for him!

Next one is in production... Very rare twin cylinder Solomon ski racing binding engine... with Detroit Edison telephone pole bolt steering column and Johnson outboard motor trim adjuster hood supports...

There is a set screw you can see in the 3rd picture. It has a locknut (7/16) on an Allen Head dog point set screw. Need a 1/8" set screw wrench to tighten. If you loosen the set crew, you can pull out the shifter and check it to see if it is OK. We have a thread around here some where that shows how it all works. I'll try to find it for you. Here ya go.

A leaking diaphragm in the fuel pump is probably the problem. Replace it with an E-pump as mentioned above. Then decide if other parts need replaced. It is always best to replace one part at a time. New parts are not always good and you could be installing a new problem.

I installed a 5 hp Briggs on my Suburban 400 with the pulley system as shown. When i push in the brake petal to shift to another gear, all the tension is released but the belt still turns the pulley on the trans. Is the a fix for this? Would appreciate any suggestions.

I forgot to mention, we were able to move the ladder stand about 18 yards closer to the west field they seem to come from most, and my silhouette is now blocked by other trees and grapevine. It is like a whole new hunting world!

It’s a pretty day, still and cold. No movement however. I am busy tonight, taking tomorrow off, and gun opener is Sunday. Pew pew!

Yep, it's Friday the 13th. I drank my coffee. Heading for my Silver Sneakers gym class. My gym partner is still in PT with her new knee. It's 36 degrees with 15-20 NE wind this AM. I'm feeling glad I'm tagged out and won't be sitting in a tree this AM.

That would be a wall hanger. WTG

Just noticed your custom circumcision device...! Man you go all out for your herd...

When done getting the shifter back in order, be sure to have a good shifter boot back in place. Essential for keeping the innards free of junk and water.

I’m too frugal to replace parts until I’m sure they’re kaput. Yes, it is possible for a leaking fuel pump diaphragm to introduce fuel into the crankcase. Caught early, the likelihood of damage is slight. A replacement diaphragm or pump is not a difficult repair. Oil change and new filter? Absolutely Voltage regulators do fail but preemptive replacement? Not something I’d do. Aftermarket carbs are available for the P220, but by the time you’ve removed the carb you’re most of the way toward a thorough cleaning. Unless there is internal corrosion or evidence of other irreparable damage, a cleaning with a standard rebuild kit install would be my starting point. Plenty of posts here cover being thorough, including getting under and replacing the Welch plug. Coil? if you have spark now, no. Plugs. Sure if it’l make you happy. Plug wires? If there is any sign they are not doing the job then yes. Transaxle oil change and filter? Probably unless you know oil is in good shape and proper filter is less then 50 hours old.

to the Mike. Why do you need to rebuild or replace the carb? Mine surged badly and needed 1/2 choke to keep running. I cleaned it several times and it has been running perfectly for many years.

@Pullstart has a video on removing the grenade gears.

You need to support the bottom of the belt to keep it off of the crankshaft pulley. Usually, there is a tab on the belt side of the belt guard that performs this function. Wheel Horses generally need to have the belt guard installed to keep the belt off of the crankshaft pulley in order to stop the belt and be able to shift gears. to the forum. Lots of good folks here. I'm pretty sure that as a group, the regular contributors here have broken and fixed just about everything on a Wheel Horse that can be broken and fixed. Even better, they share their opinions and advice freely - sometimes it is even helpful.

Finished the plow and lawn roller.

Dear Lord, your servant Stephen Jones, affectionately known as “Rollerman,” will begin clinical trials for cancer treatments. Please guide the medical decisions made on his behalf and should it become necessary, allow the surgeon's hands to be steady and effective to do the task at hand, and not create any further damage. We pray against any infection or complications. Calm the heart of his family. Lord, please allow this temporary trial to bring an end to Stephen’s battel with cancer and help speed the needed approvals to allow others to benefit from this treatment in the future. When he has infusions, please let the side effects be minimal. Work a miracle in this whole situation and bless it from beginning to end. Thank you, Lord, we praise you as we know we are in good hands- the very hands of God. In Jesus name, we thank you for each day. Amen.

That's awesome buck, Kevin

Recent plow day posts got me thinking, maybe it's time for a single bottom plow... I defer to @Achto, @Pullstart and @WHX?? for technical critique, however please note the plow and coulter wheel are fully adjustable... Brinly model provided for context...

Finished my next model - a utility cart with functional ball hitch using a broken WH tie rod... As always - a big thanks to @Vinylguy for the excellent decals!!!

Latest one completed today with the outstanding decals from @Vinylguy!!! Thanks Terry! Dually's!!!
