C160 misadventures with suprise pics

So.

Turnsout all that was a problem with replacing my starter was a fitment issue...and as my small engine mechanic explained, i couldnta fixed it on my own with my tools/knowledge. I add that last bit to say it's possible this tractor had a flaw from the factory where the starter mounts to the block. He explained even the old starter mighta been fine had he ground on the mounting flange on that one. I have no pics of this as the work is done n im gettin it back today; perhaps ill edit this post later.

Says it runs like a champ; you cant even here the starter kick in.

I like hearing that😊

Now bout the pics i do have. 

When he picked it up last Wed, he stated that he couldnt get to it till this Mon, n hed be unloading it next to the other 'antique'...also a WH. I of course asked if i could come take a look.

Wouldnt you know...its prolly the one id like to have most, my 'holy grail' WH.

I Knew what it was second i saw those buggered up taillights, lol.

It was also gettin a starter/solenoid fix, lol.

I of course passed my name n number along, lol; you never know.

Any input on value, im all ears, even just to gain the knowledge.

Y'all have a great day😊

Awesome!  Good luck!  Imagine some heavy bungees on those caps... and it running at the same time!  CLANK CLANK!

 

Love the three point :handgestures-thumbupright:

 

@pfrederi was it you looking for the chain limiter detail?  That shows it pretty well.

Not that hard to do. Use soapy water and don’t pinch the tube.

That’s a front tire, right?  Keeping the wheel on the spindle might be the easiest way, unless you have a vice or something to hold a “spindle” vertices to stick the wheel on.  When you are mounting, use the smaller diameter of the center of the wheel to your advantage.

 

This video shows what I mean.
