squonk 39,145 #28 Posted March 27, 2013 Got Marvin home. Not getting fuel to the carb. I filled the bowl 4 times and it started right up each time and ran good until it ran out. I see a funky looking bubble in the fuel filter. Looks like possibly water in the fuel. Will have to do a system cleaning. Hope the pump's ok. I have a new plastic one on the shelf but I hate the idea of plastic. I won't put an electric one on until I know the tranny's ok. Marvin's got a good dent in the rf of the hood and he's knob less except for the lift control. Pink koozie is going BYE_BYE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marv 861 #31 Posted March 29, 2013 Mike, I have one of those but mine is an 8 spd. The balance gears exploded in mine and I had to overhaul the engine. I like the tractor and currently I use it for mowing. I installed an electric fuel pump on mine. Marvin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

6wheeler 586 #33 Posted March 29, 2013 Blackhoods.Thats where WH's went to get toughened up. Marvin, Really? Give it a name like it deserves... Destroyer, Implement Wrecker, Hard A$$ or something cool like that. My ex- brother in law was named Marvin. He is a sissy . No Wheel Horse deserves to be called that . Just pickin on ya. That could be an awesome machine. 14 horses of pure WH/Kohler power. Good Luck with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
