D Day 0 #1 Posted August 10, 2017 I'm new to the group. I'm 95% sure I have an early 70's era C-160. The Model # is 1 7285. It was stored in a shed for many years after the ladies husband died. It is in great shape with various minor problems. I had to replace the electric clutch this spring. There were just two red wires coming from it. My question is: Can it be wired backwards or is either direction fine? I had a problem with the battery (brand new) holding a charge and found that it had a bad cell. Would've that been caused by the wiring? And does anyone have a place I can get a muffler cheaper than $250? I about croaked when the local WH dealer told me that. She prewarned me.

N3PUY 1,031 #2 Posted August 10, 2017 The wires on the clutch don't matter. Either way is good. The cheap way to replace a muffler is to put a stack on it. Prices aren't too bad at Rural king and Tractor Supply. Some mods may be required. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
