bottjernat1 2,190 #1 Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Wanted to share I got my new tires for the new to me 1976 D-160. I am super happy how they look! I went to my local Firestone they dealt with my late dad and have me since before i could drive legally. LOL The cost was $100 per back tire and $56 per front. Then I had them all tubed $13 for back tubes and $10 for the fronts. She is coming along. Now I have a maintenance guy i just found out yesterday him and his dad worked for onan and he is going to come over and smooth out my right piston and see if she will be ok to run after the work! I was so excited to find that out yesterday. He pulls garden tractors. He has a John Deere 400 like me but his is cranking out more ponies. He told me he found mine online and was using it to get his set up. So that was awesome. After he sees my wheelhorse maybe i can get him to get one LOL.

I got this one free from a guy on facebook. He wanted it to go to a good home and I think I am doing it justice! I drove almost 4 hrs from avilla indiana to columbus ohio. I am super thankful for this machine. It was bought new in columbus ohio. This guy saw how i was always liking the d series wheelhorses that folks posted on the page and he private messaged me and asked if i wanted one for free. I said i sure would! I am very blessed I have had a rough few years since my dad died and things like this give me hope and a sence of purpose! My wife knows how much this means to me! I miss working on this stuff with my dad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bottjernat1 2,190 #4 Posted May 22, 2020 I have thought about painting the letters on the tires what paint would work best? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bottjernat1 2,190 #5 Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Can my d160 have an engine oil pressure gauge? bottom right corner and how hard would it be to install? can i get a new one? or does someone have a good used one? Edited May 22, 2020 by bottjernat1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
