Docwheelhorse 2,740 #1 Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Happy Groundhog day tomorrow, Picked up a junk Craftsman with a Kohler Command 14.5 that is full of water / ice... gonna thaw it out and pull head and see if it can be saved. One of stipulations of getting junk tractor was that I had to take all the junk. This beauty was in pile... so how much oil do you think this thing leaked all over itself and can you believe it even ran! It, along with some other junk is headed to iron pile. Notice it even has cistom different size wheels on all 4 corners! Edited February 1, 2017 by Docwheelhorse Spelling 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 43,780 #6 Posted February 1, 2017 Doc said it ran. If the oil stayed in it , I don't think it would have had the power to whip up a full crank case of oil! I'd be careful starting it. Foot slipping off the deck when giving it a big yank. Being a Tecky, you can leave the governor alone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Docwheelhorse 2,740 #7 Posted February 1, 2017 By "ran" I meant in the past... it had to run ALOT to do this to itself. Im not gonna even try. But I bet a 1/2 cup of gas and it would burn for 2 days! No...... im not gonna do that either! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
