jimkemp 525 #1 Posted November 27, 2015 My wife is going to kill me but I couldn't pass this up , 1982 1142 with a brand new deck and mule drive under it , PO said he couldn't get it to run and he was done messing with it , I figure what I paid for it the deck is worth the price , got it home and pulled the air filter and found it chewed up and full of a mouse nest , not sure if that is why it dosnt run or if there more going on , will find out tomorrow 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,044 #3 Posted November 28, 2015 It looks in pretty good shape. Nice fine. Tell the wife you have had it for a good while and just moved it so you could work it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimkemp 525 #10 Posted November 28, 2015 Well its now a runner and the tranny works great in all 8 gears , the inside of the carb was really bad and every jet was plugged , I think I need to clean it one more time and changed the filter again after I run it for a little while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
