The seat on my D series is kinda like a big comfy couch. Oh wait, you said stock seat. I'm sorry.

I've been looking to purchase a nice wheel horse like this one. I grew up mowing many yards with wheel horse tractors over the years and this what I'm looking for if it's still available. I live in north central indiana. Please let me know if it can still be bought. Thanks,

My favorite part about 4-H. Most every activity was at least 2 girls for every guy. The odds were ever in your favor.

Many moon ago I was in 4-H. Along with electrical wiring (lamps and extension cords) I took a knitting class. I even made myself a sweater. Part of my rational was if I was to get laid up or in the hospital I'd have something to do. This was before game boys and all of the time killing activities we have now a days. I doubt that I could even cast on or cast off a stitch now. I don't think there were any interesting girls in the knitting class-well not that I remember.

A little over a 1000 and supposed to be correct??? Yeah main objective today was just run it around a bit just to see what I did have, believe everything is pretty solid and she just needs a little TLC. Ordered carb kit today and plan was to take top off carb and clean up best I could but agree valve adjustment wouldn't be a bad idea. What gaskets and stuff would I need to have on hand before I tackled a valve adjustment? I was also surprised at the ground speed it had. Seems a lot faster than a 6/8 speed tractor to me. Hydraulics seems real stout also. From the looks of the turf on that carb, I can't imagine what the cooling fins looks like .

It amazes me how much of something is produced or sold. Who would of thought 25 million of these things would sell in four months?

I work on transmissions, I don't stick to much of anything, but I am well lubricated. -
I'll take bamboo anytime over Japanese knotweed. There's a patch of knotweed about 1/4 mile from our house, and despite several repeated cuttings, it has always bounced back quickly and blocked the view of the signpost at the intersection. To dig it out would require going down about 10 feet or more. I think that herbicides can be effective to varying degrees if selected and applied properly. It can grow more than 10 inches per day!

Lowe’s did in fact sell the Work Horse tractors. When we built our house in the mid 80’s I saw the Work Horse at Lowe’s . They had then on clearance since it was October. Unfortunately the model I wanted GT 1642 , someone had put a deposit down on it and they were waiting on the buyer to return to complete the sale. They had no more in stock. I checked several other Lowe’s and they all had been sold. I ended up buying a 310-8 from the dealer in the spring.

How many hours are on the tractor? It may be due or overdue for a valve adjustment. If it has over 750 hours on it then adjusting the valves is due and doing that will have you pulling the exhaust and intake which is a good time to do a carburetor cleaning and some other needed maintenance. Do not continue to run the engine hard with a lean mixture caused by a dirty carburetor unless you want to join the loose valve seat club. Let us know if you want to do a proper valve adjustment and carburetor cleaning and we can outline the needed work.

On non-magneto tractors, the battery powers the coil for ignition. The current goes out of the battery via the “red” wires and to the coil. If you disconnect the battery ground, those poor little volts cannot find their way home to complete the circuit!

A neighbor had a patch only about 40x40 (courtesy of an across-the-fence neigbor). He cut it back to about 6” high and then used a syringe to inject Round Up into each and every hollow stem at one week intervals for a month. Took about 90 minutes each session, but it didn’t come back the next year or since. The neighbor had pros come in to dig it up and sterilize the soil on their side!

A few pics for you. The 520's seem to be the most abused of ALL WH tractors out there. Why. I have no idea. Keep at it, you will get there.

1968 Charger 10, this tractor has been partially disassembled for restoration. I have over $700.00 in parts that go with this tractor. Has original 10hp Tecumseh engine. I have almost all the new parts to complete the engine. This would make a great project. Make an offer. One of the pictures show a list of purchased parts.

My D-200 came with a seat with armrests and the adjustable spring set up with a frame in the tunnel cover, The problem was at 6'2" I was crammed in and the back of the seat was as far back as it could go and was rubbing the tank. I pulled the entire assemble and bolted on a Cub Cadet spring style seat, plenty of room now, Anyone else have an issue with the original D-200 seat?
