Well done Brady.

Welcome to the addiction.

Might as well start clearing room for more or buy another shed/garage/barn.

Those are particularly cool Wheelhorse tractors. First it has a great engine in that boxer IC Briggs, make a lot of power more than enough for a big deck or 2 stage snowblower. Second it has the Eaton 1100, and on that model the top speed is a little more than the others. Also came with the big wheels in back. 

Might not be a bad idea to pull the heads and look at those valve seats, and while your there stake them in for cheap insurance.

started up on 8 year old fuel in  the tank.  I replaced the blades and it runs and mows like a champ.

Great inheritance!      :text-coolphotos:                Be sure to use non-ethanol gas, that stuff won't last eight minutes!    https://www.pure-gas.org/

I was shocked when it fired up on that old gas. I was just checking to make sure it turned over good after I replaced batter and cables and I forgot left the fuel turned on and I was like holly crap I love these machines.  I will replace the fuel lines and take tank out to give it a good cleaning  this winter.

Nice Horse! The start of your addiction. :text-welcomeconfetti:

Like this "Work" Horse but, Thinking I like the all "red" Stallions. Guess I'll stop, Rustoleum Regal Red both belt guards.

Coarse skateboard grip tape (recommended by the grandsons) for the foot rests, works great! One piece does both sides. :handgestures-thumbupright:

Added the dial-a-height. $20 eBay. :handgestures-thumbupright:

Rear reflectors gone, added lights. Hey gotta keep the grandsons wo....wo....WORKING! 

 

Was always a Kohler dude but, this Briggs runs great.

:text-welcomeconfetti: from West Michigan!  Nice tractor, there is a Big Show in PA every June that you’ll probably end up going to and I saw a grey horse there with oversized tires and man did that thing look cool!

Certainly a great inheritance! 

 

I take the boys to a local small airport to fill gas cans. !00% Octane, low lead, zero ethanol. :handgestures-thumbupright:

Unlawful to use gas with ethanol in small aircraft. Wonder why? Duh. 

I often add Seafoam or Berrymans to the fuel just because. :rolleyes:
