Wow I guess I never gave much thought to that but makes complete sense. That explains some things. LOL!! Nice Horses , It gets expensive changing the oils out every year though.

Joe - Welcome! I hate to be the bearer of less than good news, but here goes..... Onans are notorious for having the valve seats get loose after 1100-1200 hours. The loose seat(s) get hammered into their recess and ruin it. Ruin as in not worth trying to fix it. That could account for the valve noise...I hope you did not already start to acquire parts - it is strongly advised to pull the heads to inspect the condition of the valves & seats. My , Others will chime in on this, for sure...Pictures would be helpful.

rear frame mounts for weights
1987_WHEEHORSE312 replied to peter lena's topic in Implements and Attachments
I plan to come up with a way to make a bracket that goes into the 2 inch reciever. I fure having the weight put down on the whole trans is way safer then on the standard pin hitch. -
Hi I have an original Wheel Horse 520H with Onan engine. I think it’s an 85’ with about 1500 hrs on it. I have had several Wheel Horses, all models and engines and do all the maintenance on them. I’m looking to have the Onan P220 engine rebuilt. Valve is tapping a bit. does anyone know a good engine shop in or near PA? I can get to Ohio, NJ, NY MD DE but I live in West Chester ,PA. mainly need the valve seat job and would do new pistons. tractor is currently working and cuts grass.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Horsin'round replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
At my house in western Pennsylvania, I had a neighbor that started telling me how he fed his lawn spring, summer and fall. At one point, I interrupted him and told him that I tend to propagate the native species. We never breeched the subject again. Our homes bordered a native trout stream and my primary concern was with impact. Our yard was full of wild flowers, and dandelions. They mowed just fine. Mine was the only lawn that was green in August. -

Looking for a pair of hood latch knobs like #5469 (pic #84) used on older Chargers/Commandos, but Lowell’s is out of them. Has anyone found a good substitute source or used an alternative knob that fits/worked well?

A drawing of the assembly procedure would be wonderful. P. S. That Johnny Carson was a hoot!

953 nut replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Like many others I don't spend time and money encouraging grass to grow, it manages just fine on its own. Much of the yard is so heavily shaded that moss is the only thing that grows. Over the winter we had a paver patio installed in the back yard and the track loader left some areas needing to be reseeded, I have to water those areas about an hour every afternoon to keep the tender new grass alive. May get a bit of rain this weekend but the TV weather lady didn't sound too optimistic about it. -

Can you post more photos of how you built this bracket? Looking to do the same on my 312. I found a whole box of these weights under my deck, left behind from the previous owner. -
