.... rusted, scrapped, recycled, and resurrected as a gas cap door on a 2016 Toyota & a half a dozen tuna fish cans!

Do you know how to double the value of a Bix Box Store grass cutter?? Top off the oil and the gas!

I got 11 years of use out of the Magnum 12 before I changed. It had got tired and was using oil, just needs a rebuild.

      I just bought a used C-165 01-16KE01-17658. Its is odd because the rear says Toro but I don't think they bought them until '86, and the hood decals say C-145 but the serial points to a C-165, no identification on the engine at all. I'd like to find a service manual for the tractor itself and maybe a parts manual, I have a Kohler manual.  It has quite a few issues but going to start working on it in my spare time. It runs very well and idles smooth. Hydro pulls good  and deck lift works. I have no idea where the choke cable is supposed to mount on it. Hydro fluid is milky so i have a few filters ordered to change it a few times I just am not sure what to put in it. It also isn't charging the battery but going to Ohm out the stator per the manual, but does anyone know how to test the regulator? Also, I need to deal with the rust in the battery box area.

      I was given this snowblower as a wedding gift for my 1980 C-105, a buddy of mine bought it used from someone who said they used it on a 312-8. I heard the attach-o-matic was from about 1973-2007. When I tried putting it on, it seemed to long. I could not lift it up. Does it look to long to anyone like something was added? Or maybe it is operator error and I am doing something wrong. If it's for another Wheel Horse please let me know. I have no markings for a model number or serial number anywhere. If you can see these pictures let me know your great wisdom, I am new to the Wheel Horse family.

      Waiting on the eBay electric fuel pump to show up for the C165. Only thing I'm not sure about is what to do with the old mechanical one. Do I just leave it in place or do I need to make a cover plate with the a gasket and remove it?
