@Phan firm up the connections with washers and grease , for solid smooth operation . would also go after any other linkage , dry / sloppy spot , related linkage / levers can / should move easily , only a suggestion , pete

That is a 4" stroke actuator so I guess it's 33.3% faster than mounting a 6" er on the back. Those small actuators seemed to all have the same travel speed. You could still mount it on the back and add a small brace across that handle to still archive the same thing.

Tomorrow we're forecast for 6 ish to 10+ depending who you ask. Our winters are FAR more mild than just 12 to 15 years ago.
-
I like snow. It's just not coming here because I am ready. You'll probably end up with our share.

I am good to pick up a new ignition switch if I need to for the M14, but I am finding that the switches available for the "M" series do not include the 14 hp.

That was back when Millie had a 10 HP Tecumseh engine. That engine had a 4" pulley instead of the standard 1966 2" pulley. With the 1966 4" transmission input pulley that tractor did about 11 mph. Nearly doubled the stock speed!!... but nearly useless for our needs. When we rebuilt the tractor again and installed the 1966 Kohler 8 HP engine it got the 2" pulley back. Stock speed. -
I didn't read all the responses but I've had really really good luck with the flat TV antennas that just go on a outdoor window.

One can hope
-
855 is gassed up, chained up, hydraulics are all back together, albeit a bit jankier than usual, but not leaking, and the plow is on. So there will be no snow.
-
The on that came to me on my 855 100% uses 1/4" NPT at both ends, and the lines I got from Lowell were that threading as well.

I do not believe I have a voltage regulator. I have two wires that come out from behind the flywheel, they go into a small connector mounted above the started on the shroud for the flywheel. One purple wire comes out of this connector and that goes to another loose connector that also has a wire coming into it from the ignition module. I do not know what this connector (with the purple wire and wire from the ignition module) connected to. And thank you for breaking out my question!

I will try to check for spark tomorrow. I replaced the spark plug but did not resolve. And yes it cranks but does not start
- Today

Older WH cylinders (welded) used SAE #5 ORB fittings later ones used SAE#6 ORB neither cylinder that i have come across used pipe threads... both were straight NF 1/2" #5 9/16" #6

glad to see Millie is ready for a fight and answering the call. @ebinmaine which pulley did you end up with and how much of a difference did it make if you went with the non stock pulley? I skimmed thread and apologize if I missed it somewhere. -
But the big issue is the K321 was PROBABLY a battery points ignition system.. The Magnum 14 has a magneto system. You have to be absoutley sure because the wrong ignition switch may fry the M-14 ignition system. You need an ignition switch with an "M" terminate for the M14
-
Thanks you, Achto! I just took for another one for a replacement.

I dont understand what you mean it cranks and cranks but doest turn over. Do you mean start? If so pull the air cleaner and spray some gas directly in the carb throat with a spray bottle. I got one that does that and it is getting a new electric fuel pump. Like said above check for spark. Good luck.

3 of the Herd are nearly ready. Just a couple minor things to attach. The Ugly Bruce tractor with a 48". The Military Tribute Tractor Milie with a 42". The '75 C160 Automatic with Super Scooper in now. That may get changed to the wiiiide 60" blade or the two stage tall chute snowblower.

C121 Hydro for my parents. (and an introduction)

48" plow ready to go. Solid link for downpressure. All @peter lena oiled up. At some point we'll paint the blade red. This is Cinnamon Horse color. -
Ah the sound of Kohler's and Wild Bill!

Is there a difference between the welded and non-welded cylinders, beyond the obvious of one being welded together and the other not? I swapped in a non-welded cylinder today that I picked up at the show (no idea what it was originally off of) and the threads were straight instead of pipe thread, 5/16 instead of 1/4 inch, and I had to add another hole to the lift link for my plow to get it off the ground going up, but I was almost able to lift the front axle off the ground going down, which I had never been able to do before. It dropped right in place, but it's almost like it is operating in a different length range. I'm just curious at this point. The whole point of it was so the tractor wasn't down while I send the welded one out to get resealed.

I broke your question out and made it its own topic. Will get more eyes on it this way. Does your Mag 14 have a voltage regulator? Usually mounted up near the carburetor and that would make it a 15a charging system. Some Mag 14’s didn’t come with a regulator and that would make it an unregulated 3a charging system.
-
That's the stuff I was looking for John. Right now I'm only looking to do the little top deflector. I measured from the top of the handle to a mounting point on the chute body and it looks like a 6" stroke would be spot on. But I'm wondering if I want to mount it lower and use a shorter stroke for quicker movement.

There is a free app in the play store called "antenna point" that you can download to your phone. It greatly helped my digital antenna setup just knowing the best direction to start with. I live out in the boonies so I had my doubts about an indoor antenna, but it works well once you figure out where the transmitters are in your area. New age digital or not, radio wave theory still rules the game.
