I have a 655 Wheel Horse with a Tecumseh engine and it had sat for a couple years before I bought it. My buddy said he could clean and rebuild the carb for me. Well when he did it he didn't adjust it right and now I cant get it adjusted right either. I will run fine if I keep spraying gas into the carb but it can't run on its own. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to adjust the carburetor or give me a good reference to figure it out.

If its acting like its not getting enough fuel like having to hold the choke on or spraying fuel in it to keep it running you need more fuel so unscrew the screw on the bottom of the bowel in small adjustments till it runs on its own and make sure the fuel is getting to the carb

It does act like its not getting enough fuel and I have done that, but once I get it to were it can run with the screw at the bottom of the bowl when I try to turn the deck on it stalls out and i think it is because I don't have the other screw adjusted right either

If you get the engine running smoothly and engaging the deck causes it to stall you might be having problems with a safety switch. Not familiar with that tractor but just a thought.

      89 400 series 25A fuse blowing
      By WheelPuke
      I have my 25A fuse blowing every time I put a new one in the slot. The old one was burnt up when I got the tractor put this year. It sat for a year with a dead battery. I stopped using it as much because the transmission is clattering pretty bad when taking off on second or higher. I had to replace the clutch belt a few years ago and couldn't get an OEM. Not sure what is the problem there that's another issue though.
       
      I have checked the wiring and patched the worn spots where it could be grounding out. The fuse blows as soon as there is power to the system with the ignition off. I'm at a loss of what to check for at this point. Any input from someone who has had this issue would be appreciated. I'm not sure what these units are in the photos but do not know how to test them for a failure. They are directly in loop with the battery and the ignition loom looks to run into that 25A fuse.

      "Pond" Wheel Horse Walk Behind
      By Aaron Coffman
      Hi Red Square Community,
       
      I am looking into purchasing the below pictured "POND" Walk Away. The unit itself has the cast in “POND” on the chain reduction housing. The two main things I am looking to learn are what value is typical for these to sell for. This one has a Briggs & Stratton model “N” engine. It runs and drives, but the throttle linkage needs some adjusting. It comes with a cultivator and plow implement. 
       
      Secondly, I was wondering if there is any way to determine what year specifically this Pond is from. The seller believes late 1940s and not 1950s. I am new to these machines, so I am looking for some guidance. Thank you in advance!

      65 - 655 save & repower
      By Kenneth R Cluley
      Finally got around to checking this 1965 wheel horse 655. Serial # 133946. I got this over a year ago in a "Bundle" trailer load of other items. The Tecky H60 had imploded, rod, camshaft, internals like "chicken bones" bearing lobe on block broken off , etc. etc. So I also got most of a K181 basket case S/G engine with parts. Decided this one was too nice to part out or scrap so I checked engine and it looked pretty good with only governor shaft flag and counterweight broken internally. Long story short it spec' ed well and I completely rebuilt. It had the two-piece ASA cam and was a bit of a challenge but all went well. Took the Tecky out and put the Kohler in, new boot and flushed trans, new gear oil and it runs and drives. Definitely needs some "LOVE" but would be a great worker. Everything but seat is there. Mounted Tecky gas tank under hood. New regulator, re-built starter/gen .Will place in classifieds and high probability will be coming to "BIG SHOW" for first time from FL. Anyway enjoy pics. Also have a lot of Tecky parts that I would donate to anyone so inclined.
