edju54 5 #1 Posted August 13, 2020 i am thinking about selling my 1974 c160 with plow and cutting deck, runs but may need carb adjustment, i live in penna., would there be any interest in this if so i will post pics. the engine will start to backfire and lose power when a heavy load is put on it at high rpm's, I cleaned the carb inside and out replaced gas filter and tried all kinds of adjustments to the carb but no luck.I have very limited mechanical ability with this so I am thinking of selling it. I inherited this from a friend who kept it in pristine condition, if there is any interest out there let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stepney 2354 #2 Posted August 13, 2020 With any luck, its just carb or ignition trouble .. however that does distinctly sound like the classic Tecumseh OH160 failure of loose valve seats.. Not every day you see a C160 Special.. very nice indeed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
