Mike'sHorseBarn 3,612 #1 Posted 6 hours ago Picked this 312-8 up this morning! Might be the nicest original one I ever bought! Has a bagger and a plow thats just as nice. Got it running after a carb clean and new fuel lines. I was just gonna flip it, but I don't know about that now. It works pretty great! 20260801_170738.mp4 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 11,290 #2 Posted 4 hours ago Big 312-8 fan here. Have had mine for 37 years. I can mow my yard 3 times compared to once with my Kohler Twins on the MPG. Good luck with it. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 79,753 #3 Posted 4 hours ago That 12 HP is a fantastic worker. Some of em just have to stay around. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MainelyWheelhorse 2,911 #4 Posted 2 hours ago Nice score on that 312-8. Mine is my go to mowing machine, so I definitely agree with you, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike'sHorseBarn 3,612 #5 Posted 1 hour ago One thing I don't like about the carburetor on this though is that it has a fixed main jet. Didn't know they had those 40 years ago. My 314 is adjustable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
