5 pointsJust couldn't help but take care of both areas of backlash adjustment, and repair the broken grease fitting. Made a significant difference, but still more gains to be had.

4 pointsI'm out and working for over an hour already. That pile of chips is probably enough to fill a small trailer.

4 points80 miles @ 73 cents a mile 58 $ I would throw that and the $10 at a set delivered to the door that match and are just the kind I want.

3 pointsI had a boss that would respond that way, if you were to say “well” as the beginning of a response to a question. “Them are deep” So far, so good. I learned a lot, and am not afraid of what I don’t know. Usually.

2 pointsApril 4, 1975, at a time when most Americans used typewriters, childhood friends Bill Gates and Paul Allen found Microsoft, a company that makes computer software. Originally based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Microsoft relocated to Washington State in 1979 and eventually grew into a major multinational technology corporation. In 1987, the year after Microsoft went public, 31-year-old Gates became the world’s youngest billionaire.

2 pointsSure. Any parts store will have a selection of dash mount. I mounted on the side on the steering tower for a power point. It has a rubber cover when not in use.

2 pointsYour transmission level indicator is clogged. Get a piece of really small mechanics wire and run it up through the curved part at the top. Then spray some brake clean up through it.

2 pointsBack in the day before I was old wise enough to get hydraulic trannies and lifts, I used 3 assist springs on my manual lift snow blower. I made the springs from old garage door springs and used a turnbuckle to adjust the tension. I set it so the blower was just touching and I could lift it with one finger. I found the additional weight when the housing was full of snow held the scraper down tight. If I needed additional down pressure I could simply push the lift lever forward. How much does a snowblower lift spring assist REALLY help? - Implements and Attachments - RedSquare Wheel Horse Forum

1 pointYes. I sleeved the entire shaft on my reborn B-80. I had the pulley and pto bearing race for the 1.125" shaft so I found a sleeve that covered the entire shaft. I may have trimmed it to fit. The sleeve required the key to be 1/4" x 5/16" and a full length key was provided.

1 pointI had one come in like that. Never could figure out why this issue was never caught, and fixed, at the dealer. What I did was center the quadrant and readjusted the tie rods to the proper toe. It wasn't my preferred fix but at the time. Steering wheel ended up way out of alignment but just learned to live with it. Replacement steering shafts are sometimes hard to find. Guys want the entire 520 front end to have on other tractors.

1 pointBob, I have a 1 inch WH engine pulley for a gear drive. I can send it to you. Might cost you a sandwich at the show. Let me know. JoeM

1 pointI'm sure it's possible but I've never gone that far. I tighten it to where it's an easy one arm lift (and I'm a wimp) and stop there. It does take up most of the threads but I'm not sure if the eye bolt is original.
-
1 pointI was researching snowblower stuff on the site yesterday and believe I saw a comment about "tensioning the lift assist spring too much" Is that a real thing? Could that keep the snowblower from sitting flush to an asphalt driveway? I tighten the nut to the very end of the thread.

1 pointYou should be able to put the switch part number into Amazon and find one.

1 pointWife wanted a raised bed garden…it happened today ( still needs to be filled).
-
1 pointThanks for posting this. I saved the link in my notes for the Tecumseh/ Briggs swap tractor. 20 HP engine driving a two stage would be nice... and an easy manual lift too.
-
1 pointYup, it is a tap dance to adjust. Not enough, it is hard to lift. Too much and the blower becomes too light to work correctly....
-
1 pointGuessing a single with manual lift. I don't think you could tighten it enough to make it lift off the payment but it may bounce or skip over high spots?

1 pointUpdate on the two chain saws. As suspected, the Jonsered CS 2171 needs a cylinder and piston. The shop is looking for options for both OE and aftermarket. That'll very likely be fixed right and put to use here even if it's several hundred dollars. Those are highly regarded pro grade pieces. The Stihl MS291... also needs a cylinder and piston. That's a high-end homeowner type saw. It's not likely worth fixing. More details in the next few days.

1 pointAll my adult life I've only used Valvoline products exclusively but the reality is that any quality product will do the job. Straight 30w in the splash Kohlers, 10w30 in the pressure lubed.

1 pointSAE 30wt. This is what I use in all my old Kohler engines. I know it says for diesel engines. It is a close formula to what your old Kohler requires. This may be a better option in your area. https://www.q8oils.com/fr/product/q8-garden-oil-sae-30/

1 point@Lee1977 and @AlexR I took your collective advice. Made this little jig up to center my hole saw and it worked pretty well. As expected, it got just into the smaller bolt pattern so I just rounded them out the best I could. Looks sort of like ATV wheels now ... A little at least. Looks good enough for a garden tractor. Test fits OK. Sprayed a first coat of primer on so it won't flash rust and stopped there for tonight. The other wheel already has a tire mounted so that one might be interesting holding it while cutting the center out. Maybe some ratchet straps will hold it...
-
1 pointWell I welded the axles up, and the turned out ok. Not machine shop level but for a sub 10mph application they will be fine. I grooved them pretty deep and then ground the welds down flush. Test fit with bearings when I finished and I think this is gonna work well. And no the bolts won't turn because I used keyed washers, and the last 1/2 of the axle was ground flat. Again this is for a slow application and this should hold just fine. Unfortunately my wheels won't work. They must be from a gokart or similar because the center bore is about a half inch too small for the hub body. I guess I'll find another set. It happens!
