    Seconded. I've done this repair by hand. It worked okay but obviously a drill press or other proper machinery would be a huge improvement. Bill, nice work on this one.

    I have a set of speakers that I've been using in the past but they're too big to practically fit in my workshop. I'd like to get a set of inexpensive small speakers that could potentially be wall-mounted above the doors on each end and not take up too much space. Maybe another set fore and aft of the workbench...? The receiver is a mid to late 90s Yamaha that's pretty powerful. Exact wattage unknown but I'm sure it's over 100W per channel. I'm not necessarily trying to create a rock concert environment but I would like to have at least two, maybe four speakers that would be able to keep up with the unit and have them spread throughout the workshop. What is it that I need to know as far as ohms, watts, resistance, Etc?

    Start Gen repair and pulley removal tips?

    squonk replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Wheel Horse Electrical

    I just replaced the bearings in one that I didn't even remove the jenny from the engine. Hate lining up those bottom bolts. I just did one end at a time. Darn electricians using Klein screwdrivers as prybars! Don't you know only Snap-On screwdrivers are suitable for prying? and don't forget to test everything with your U.E. I. meter!

    I've had to clean a carb literally 3 times IN A ROW to get one particularly bad one right. Your tractor had ethanol at one point. We live on a dirt planet.

    I'm not a bourbon fan. Or scotch for that matter. Rye is different. And also, there are MANY different brands and flavors. There are Rye Whiskeys meant specifically for sipping, or for mixing. I like a good "sipping" Rye. Wheel Horse Rye is a better mixer but does ok as a sipper. My favorite is Russell's Reserve in the green label. It's aged 6 years. Excellent when frozen & served over ice.

    Had the diesel out moving a bit of scrap. Ground's super wet so it spent half the time spinning the tires but I made it with ample use of the turning brakes. This tractor runs better and better every time I run it, the blowby is completely gone and so is the surge at idle.

    I've had good luck with this stuff (and using my air compressor) on things like electric fan motors and such.

    Exhaust popping in cold weather

    sqrlgtr replied to Alrashid2's topic in Engines

    Just a miss is all that I can remember. I still would bet on carb full of trash. I have been going through the fuel pumps on my tractors, rebuilding them and can't believe how much crud was inside them. Was having trouble with crud getting in carbs every month are so. I had bought fuel line off of jungle site and thought I had fuel line breaking down and filling my carbs up with junk but have come to the conclusion it was coming from fuel pumps instead. I have not had to clean carb out of any that I have rebuilt fuel pump on so far but hasn't been too long since rebuilding them.

    I prefer it full, in the bottle. I guess I’m not a rye or bourbon guy…

    Alrashid2 replied to Alrashid2's topic in Engines

    Thanks guys for the advice here! It's all appreciated. Any other symptoms of a bad condensor? I assume it's easy to replace? This only seems to happen in cold weather, so I wasn't sure if that was true of a failing condensor or if a bad one would cause sputtering all the time, any weather. I just tore apart and cleaned the carb about 8 months ago, so I highly doubt I have crud in there. Doesn't hurt to check though.

    Look again at the second picture. The dark portion of the wall is the original wallowed out part - the shiny part is the new cut at a bit more than 50% of the hole. Each pass the new cut gets longer, until the ends meet as they did at .840... the hole was both moved & round....

    There has been a few write ups in the past I am thinking of doing the same hate to leave the cab to adjust the deflector. I can’t find them if I do I will try and link them.

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    sqrlgtr replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors

    Finished fuel pump rebuild for C160. Try and install on tractor tomorrow .

    Fair amount of area to clean. Might be easier to remove the magnetos or mask.

    Yeah I think they only had one d cell. WWII vintage ones would have been metal but then plastic in the late 60s. Every life jacket had one pinned on and when I was in the deck gang we had to go through 300 jackets and check all for working & new batteries. Early 80's they went to a strobe style. A vast improvement. We tossed thousands of the old ones. Now they are even activated automatically by water. You have one of these Sparky? If not you can have this one. Just sits in a junk drawer. Standard GI all through Vietnam to 90's or so. I'm sure they have something better now as these things were real junk. Worked when it felt like it and about as akin to stock headlights. As @Achto would say about like holding a candle in front of you. I put a led bulb in it but it still only works when it wants to. They were also in strait version and on the boat spray bombed orange for emergency use only. Stowed in racks of three all over the sub. My division was responsible for checking them all.

    Wiring with varnish insulation and any solvent that can dissolve grease are not gonna play well together. There are special cleaners for electronics that are useable safely on printed circuit boards, variable capacitors, etc. etc

    Ya know what? It's been years since I've had Purple cleaner here. Thanks for the reminder!
