Cee245 873 #1 Posted 16 hours ago (edited) Well, this has never happened to me before... I work 3rd, and woke up recently in the afternoon to a voicemail and a free 416-8 in the back yard! My father in laws buddy gave me a 1990 416-8 with the Onan. Now, its not anything too special, but my teenage sons amd I should be able to get it going. Story is and from what i can tell by quickly looking it over, the guy bought a Chinese carb and hasn't been able to keep it running. It has ~525hrs on a probably non working meter and was left for dead. (It is One of those tractors where you can "see" the mouse nest behind the engine shroud. LOL) But there are still lots of good usable parts. Its rusty, but metal is straight, so I'm thinking of using this hood at least. PLAN: This machine is (i think) identical to the 1991 416-8 my dad bought new. I have that tractor and will basically combine those two into one decent unit. All in all, I wont need to purchase too much to make it a decent unit. Just LOTS of grease and rewiring obvious issues.
