I've definitely considered that but I want the fuel sipping of the little 8 HP.

Trying to fix some of the issues with this tractor to make it at least usable again. I've been going over some obvious wiring issues and am making progress. (Im not great at electrical, but i have a multi meter/desire and the schematic. (Thanks @gwest_ca) Back story is this came with another 314h package I bought for my Sil and I was given this as payment for getting hers and servicing etc. Her's is nice, this one... not so much. It has about 1677 hrs on meter and it did run pretty good 2yrs ago when put under tarp. Its really not all that bad, needs some tlc/grease and a little bit of money to be serviceable) I have the bigger rear tires and tubes and other parts so it can come together decently. Last week when my 16yr old and I tried to get it running, we turned ignition to ON and used push button start that turned it over but the ignition started smoking and melted the loose red wire/ plug to it. (It looks like the starter wire that goes to solenoid that is kinda under battery and goes to fuse box ) Here is where i am at Currently, I eliminated the push button and fixed the red wire to ignition switch. (I ordered another switch/plug and am currently using a switch from same model tractor) to troubleshoot. It won't turn over with the switch so I jumped the starter solenoid and it turns over well but my spark tester shows NO spark. I realize I have a couple issues, but im hoping to get a little direction from here. Pictures of course...

Here's another engine on Marketplace. It has the higher amp stator and rectifier as seen in the pictures.

Put a K341 in it an make it a B-16

I have this one set aside. I believe it's a 1976. I bought this from @Retired Wrencher Gary. Overall decent shape but the engine was incorrectly rebuilt. Not sure if I will have my favorite local small engine shop fix this one, or just swap another one in. Definitely looking forward to having this machine as a part of my working Herd.

I started buying these red anodized aluminum battery hold down bars. They work for the larger Automotive style batteries as seen below and also for the standard garden tractor battery. You will have to drill a hole in the battery tray for the J Bolt on either side.

Why were the baby strawberries crying? Their ma and pa were in a jam.

Looks too new to have king pins, they went away in the mid '50s unless you are talking about a heavy duty truck.

HAPPPPY BIRTHDAY -
If you could find an old US Navy Wool Peacoat that would be the answer. Wool just sheds acid and the Peacoats were very thick.

You just turn the phone upside down, with screen rotation off, and then when it gets back here it will be right. -
Yeah, but it works more like that flywheel alternator.

I’m using an engine tach. The blue one on the top let side of the dash. It’s a little slow at times but it also counts the hours as well. I have not use a lazer tach at work yet to see the pulley speed or anything like that. -
Happy Birthday @WVHillbilly520H, we are glad you were born.

August 23, 1947, the first Little League World Series championship game—the culmination of a three-day tournament in Williamsport, Pennsylvania—features teams from Pennsylvania. Before roughly 2,500 fans, Maynard, a team from Williamsport, defeats Lock Haven, 16-7, to win the title at Original Field. Although it is called the "World Series," 11 of the 12 teams in the tournament are from Pennsylvania; the outlier is a team from Atlantic City, N.J.
