Jaymon74 84 #1 Posted January 14, 2017 Hello. I've always liked the old Wheelhorse lawn tractors. About two years ago I purchased my first. A 1968 Wheelhorse Charger 12. I've done some work to it, but working on a flooding issue currently. I bought it mainly for snow plowing and pulling a small trailer. Glad to be a part of the forum. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your best solution is to replace the fuel hose and filter, flush the tank, clean and rebuild the carburetor (easy to do) and use non-ethanol gas. You can find a station that caries it by going to "buyrealgas.com" on the internet. Use a bit of Seafoam in your gas too, it works well. Hope this helps, let us know how you do. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
