JBsDeere 0 #1 Posted May 6, 2011 while the engine was running, pto disengaged, I heard a pop and saw sparks fly from the pto clutch. now it will not engage. About how much money and how difficult is this to replace? Any ideas on where to buy a replacement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimD 3,345 #5 Posted May 8, 2011 It would probably be cheaper to find the arts to convert it to a manual pto. There are members here who probably have the parts for a reasonable price. A post in the wanted section of the classifieds with the tractor model will most likely get you some results. :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
racinfool40 202 #6 Posted May 8, 2011 As Jim Said depending on the model tractor you have, You can change over to the mechanical style. I'm in the process of doing this to my 12-Auto.. Fairly easy if you have the parts and if the parts are available.Also let us know your location, Some one close may be able to help.. :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBsDeere 0 #7 Posted June 22, 2011 How does this thing come off? I removed the two 5/8" bolts that go through the bracket and crankshaft, but it won't slide off. Is there a clip or something holding it on still? and as for the model, it's a 1971 WorkHorse 800. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brrly1 1,146 #8 Posted June 22, 2011 If I remember correctly the bolt that screws in the center of the crank is like a 3" long. You'll need a bolt about an 1 1/2" longer. Put the bolt back in place and screw it back in,that should push the clutch off. I think its is like a 7/16" fine thread or something close to that. Is this an electric clutch with an 1" shaft. I might possibly have one 80.00 plus shipping. :WRS: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBsDeere 0 #9 Posted June 26, 2011 I don't know what size the shaft is. I will try to look it up. It is an HH80 engine, 1971 work horse. I really dont feel like spending the time to convert this to manual pto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBsDeere 0 #10 Posted June 26, 2011 If you have an electric pto that will fit my 8hp techy, I'll buy it. I can't verify the shaft diameter though. I've even looked through the Tecumseh parts/repair manuals online and found nothing :woohoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
