Dhodge 528 #1 Posted September 14, 2014 Brought home 520H #3 yesterday. I must have a hole in my head for bringing home another Wheel Horse. I think this makes 27 total now and I cant stop looking. Anyhow I went to an estate sale yesterday and found this 1989 520H with a 48" deck, plow, chains, wheel weights, mid mount grader, tiller and a pull behind spreader. Needless to say it found it's way on my trailer and to it's new home. It was running rough and initially I was thinking that it might be running on one cylinder. I sprayed a little water, from a squirt bottle on the cylinders with the engine running and got steam from each one. So I determined she's running on two. Then I sprayed a bit of starting fluid on the front cylinder and nothing changed, so I sprayed some on the back cylinder and she smoothed right out for a moment, so today I get to replace a head gasket. All in all it's in pretty good shape and should make an awesome snow removal tool this winter. It came with 4 really nice hub caps that should look really nice on one of my Suburban's or RJ's. My goal is to have a 520 for mowing, one for snow blowing and one for snow plowing without having to change attachments or maybe my goal is just having one more to tinker with who knows. Like I said---hole in the head. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC9KAS 4,741 #5 Posted September 14, 2014 27 Wheel Horses....Man you got it bad!! Looks like a very nice tractor with all the attachments. I think all of us "are looking" for our next GT even if we don't admit it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesegrader 433 #6 Posted September 15, 2014 One to mow. One to snowblow. One for the loader. One for the blade. And a spare one to work on, just in case something breaks! Maybe a roller for parts... It never ends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
