chip61 655 #1 Posted March 20, 2017 Got this basket case 416-H from my neighbor. It ran pretty good when he got it a couple years ago, but it quit running one day and has been in the same place in his yard since. I traded him some parts for this and dragged it to my house. Someone who had it before him really butchered the wiring-next time I go down there (it's 90 miles from home) I'm going to run 12v to the coil to see if I can get it to run and move. If so, I'll work on the wiring and clean it up, if not I'll try to find a decent Magnum for it. I like the hydro tractors for mowing. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #2 Posted March 20, 2017 Chip, send me a pm if you would consider a K-341. I've got a sweet runner coming up for sale. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 46,775 #3 Posted March 20, 2017 Even it's state of neglect I'd say you probably got the better ened of the deal. Nothing with this girl that knowledge obtained here can't fix!😊 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chip61 655 #4 Posted March 26, 2017 Went back down today and worked on it for a while. Ran a wire from the battery to the coil and jumped the solenoid-it started fairly easily! It has a flat tire so couldn't really drive it, but it does move forwards and backwards so that's encouraging. I brought the flat tire home to repair and I will put that back on next week and drive it around a little. If all seems to go well I will attempt to figure out what the previous owner did to the wiring. That twin cylinder does sound good!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WVHillbilly520H 10,369 #5 Posted March 27, 2017 Nothing sounds quite like an Onan purring away, even though the Kohler OHV twins are fairly close, still not the same, and yes when so called "electrians" working on the Toro/Onan wiring without the proper schematics and multi meter makes for an aggravated time to redo and fix been there done that, Jeff. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,515 #6 Posted March 27, 2017 Sounds like you picked up a Horse! Great tractor! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorseFixer 2,012 #7 Posted March 27, 2017 The only thing that sounds better than a 16hp ONAN is a 20HP Onan. That's my story and I;m sticking to it! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
