JCM 10,225 #1 Posted June 5, 2019 On Feb 27 2019 I found a post by @oliver2-44 Referencing Brass thrust washers Hillman part # 58087 which I have been unable to locate and Kohler part # 2515802-5 which is NLA, so I thought I would try Fastenal and they could order them @ 75.00 for Qty 150. I am trying to get the Blackhood C-165 to run a little smoother and I believe this is the fix,any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

You wouldn't check at Ace, not find the part, pay Fastenall $75 for a gross of them, fix the tractor, but die of sepsis from the infection you get when you cut your finger, because you didn't have the money to pay the co-pays at the doc and pharmacy, after paying $75 for a gross of bushings. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 10,225 #19 Posted June 10, 2019 I wanted to thank all you Joker's for the ACE Hardware recommendations but guess what, I did go to ACE just for the heck of it and the owner looked everywhere for those washers and even took out his verniers to measure all the brass washers he stocks and to no avail. This is a small hardware store that stocks just about anything you could possibly ever need, even pitcher pumps and spare leather washers. All kidding aside, I always enjoy everyone's comments and suggestions when I post, where else could I get this much entertainment at such a reasonable price for the cost of supporter membership. Last but not least a big thanks to @oliver2-44 for sending the correct washers, received them today in the mail. In case you don't already know RED SQUARE IS THE BEST! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seven 202 #20 Posted June 16, 2019 I know this is a little late but what exactly is this for is it the bushing that goes in between the butterfly shaft ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The steel throttle shaft is much harder than the cast carb body. Hence over time it wears away some of the carb body and air is sucked into the carb upsetting the correct mixture. The bronze bushings restore a good seal to the shaft. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
