grine_22 145 #1 Posted August 12, 2016 Got my 2nd horse home, picked up this 310-8 from the woman's grandparents, needs a lil TLC but it'll be a good worker. Next to follow me home was his 753 that he gave me. Love this site and really appreciate all the tips tricks and help i learn from everyone here, a lot of work ahead finishing the raider 12 and then on to the 753. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grine_22 145 #2 Posted August 12, 2016 Forgot to add that both came with decks and snow blades. Had to do a minor tuneup on the 310-8(adjust valves, set points, new fuel filter, lines n plug and she runs like a top.) I love these old Kohler's. I own and run a scrap yard and every time I see these motors or machines come through I just can't help but snag them up! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grine_22 145 #4 Posted August 12, 2016 I know I'm "green" by all means, I'm not even 30 yet, but I wrench for living. I tinker with a lot of mowers we have come through but I must say theses old horses are the easiest and by far the most enjoyable to bring back to life. I love the old equipment without electronics where everything is mechanical and can be bought back to life without a computer or the hassle of gobs of electronics. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 23,285 #9 Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) I think that 753 just needs a bath and a rub down...she looks beautiful. Edited August 12, 2016 by stevasaurus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grine_22 145 #10 Posted August 12, 2016 The goods been cobbled up a little, they had a piece of leather riveted on at the bottom for a hinge and I'll have to go through the motor but she does have compression and it shifts into all gears Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
