Mike'sHorseBarn 2,702 #27 Posted March 6, 2016 Just an FYI. The serial number is 15668. I took the decal off so it didn't get damaged during pressure washing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike'sHorseBarn 2,702 #29 Posted March 9, 2016 Ok guys I just couldn't help myself. I freed up the stuck valve in the k91t and the seats looked good and the cylinder wall looked perfect! So I put it back together, changed the oil and added a bit of Lucas to it. It had good spark and I got all the out of the carburetor. I put the engine back on the tractor and put gas in the tank (after I cleaned it out) and believe it or not the tractor fired up on the second pull!! Smoked a little at first and then nothing! Ran it around for an hour or so until the spark plug that was in it fouled. Put a new one in and kept going! Next I need to fix the recoil but overall it worked great! 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
