Well it was a nice day. And the sun shining through the snow. Makes for a nicer video and whole lot more fun than blowin through a blizzard!  I hope you'll agree. :)Video of clearing out snow after the storm with my Wheel Horse C-161 manual 8 speed with Snow Thrower Attachment

Got my wheel weights and plenty of additional  stern weight (Lots of recycled range lead) on my '73 Auto 18 with the ARK FEL.  The C-161 never seemed to  need them. Wheel chains is pretty much all that it seems to require.

That's a heavy tractor in it's own right...

      Hello, Have a C-161 Manual transmission Kohler engine.
      I had been mowing a good bit and thought I would wash grass and dirt off it.  Well apparently got something wet and now may have shorted something out. After drying out, something is still wrong it tried to start a couple of time, but now nothing, unless I use two jumpers from the switch connector (and I even replaced switch and still have issue).  It will start and run and lights will work etc. except with way I have it jumper-ed it won't shut off unless you disconnect the 1st jumper.
      To start and keep it running, use two jumper wires from the switch connector (five blade).  1st. jumper wire from the black wire to the positive on the battery and 2nd jumper wire from red wire to positive on the battery to engage the starter to start it.  hope that makes sense, see pictures  (Note - the amp meter was showing charging even though switch off and even disconnected, so to rule the amp meter I by passed it.).  Did the the one relay block get too wet and short out?   Other side note,  have had some issues with mice and even had a black snake in it this morning, guess it was looking for food.  Do not see any wires chewed, and it was running fine until hosed off dirt and grass clippings.  
       
      Thoughts or suggestions??  
       
      Thanks.

      I have my 25A fuse blowing every time I put a new one in the slot. The old one was burnt up when I got the tractor put this year. It sat for a year with a dead battery. I stopped using it as much because the transmission is clattering pretty bad when taking off on second or higher. I had to replace the clutch belt a few years ago and couldn't get an OEM. Not sure what is the problem there that's another issue though.
       
      I have checked the wiring and patched the worn spots where it could be grounding out. The fuse blows as soon as there is power to the system with the ignition off. I'm at a loss of what to check for at this point. Any input from someone who has had this issue would be appreciated. I'm not sure what these units are in the photos but do not know how to test them for a failure. They are directly in loop with the battery and the ignition loom looks to run into that 25A fuse.

      Hi Red Square Community,
       
      I am looking into purchasing the below pictured "POND" Walk Away. The unit itself has the cast in “POND” on the chain reduction housing. The two main things I am looking to learn are what value is typical for these to sell for. This one has a Briggs & Stratton model “N” engine. It runs and drives, but the throttle linkage needs some adjusting. It comes with a cultivator and plow implement. 
       
      Secondly, I was wondering if there is any way to determine what year specifically this Pond is from. The seller believes late 1940s and not 1950s. I am new to these machines, so I am looking for some guidance. Thank you in advance!
