Any places to check online for the pulley covers? Go to the Toro website using the model number of the deck, there you should be able to find the part number. If the model number is missing from the deck, post a photo of it so we can identify. Google the part number to see if you can find new or used covers. Also, we have a classified section where you can post in the Wanted section. We have a vendors section with folks that very well might have the covers. The good thing about Wheel Horse is that so much is interchangeable and those covers were likely used on many models and years. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sqrlgtr 2,808 #26004 Posted 3 hours ago @Fj40z I would recommend becoming a supporter of the site makes it so much better of an experience and a lot easier to post pics. I 4 see more WH's in your future so you may as well join this support group . It is well worth the price of admission in my opinion. So much help and knowledge on here. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DLF 43 #26006 Posted 1 hour ago I see you have a 42" side discharge deck. They are bad to crack under the height adjuster then rust out. My 1989 had a good size hole there when I got it You need to check that, if not cracked add a 1/8" thick by 1 1/2" steel inside long enough to extend by both bolts.

Made me think of that ol song "take off the old coat and put on the new", that may not be correct title but is a great song either way.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankB 16 #26011 Posted 21 minutes ago Drained the engine oil on my 312-8. I replaced a crappy aftermarket head gasket that blew out in about 1/2 hour of mowing. Cleaned up the combustion chamber a bit. Finished mowing the lawn. I plan to change the gear oil too. I need to replace the fuel cap as well and so far my google-fu is not up to finding the correct replacement AFAIK. Oh, found it on the Toro site at https://www.toro.com/en/parts/partdetails?id=3418&iid=295761&pid=304458 "NOT AVAILABLE" but Amazon has the part number "55-3570 toro" listed for $18.20 US. At the Toro store no less! I should probably order a spare drive belt as well. Props to Toro for keeping some parts available but that is not as likely to last as long as my 314H. Yesterday Pulled the head to inspect. Mostly good, some evidence of blowby on the piston top. Checked valve clearance - within spec. Went through carb - likely the cause of poor performance and surging. Replaced the air filter (and foam wrapper.) It ran great! for half an hour whereupon it lost power and could not be restarted.
