875 Wheel-A-Matic

Here's the thread on my broken frame: -
Loader was built by my welder buddy using mostly original Economy plans. I did the hydraulics.

I have a 1054 but recently saw a 1054A for sale. What does the A signify? Is there a B or C etc?

My control is only about a 1/16" away from the screws but mine are non factory allen head screws. -

"After the Ordeal" Wheel a Matic leak and repair
pfrederi replied to squonk's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
PM me your adress i will send you the Oring you need Dash# 116 -
The harbor freight kind, yes. Also, sometimes I see an initial Spark on the plug when I turn key to Start and then nothing, and then one when I go from Start to run, or sometimes run to off.

"After the Ordeal" Wheel a Matic leak and repair

It will only use 1 o-ring on the older Wheel a matic. @pfrederi knows what size they are. You can try tightening the 3 bolts. Maybe it will stop leaking but most likely the seal is cracked and brittle like mine was. -
What kind of spark tester are you using. The Harbor freight neon bulb type will often flash yet there is insufficient juice to fire the plug. B&S type will give a better picture of strength.

TC10284 started following P220g - spark on tester but not on plugs

520H 4120oe02 1032657 with p220g. Earlier this year in spring, I mowed with this tractor. It suddenly would start sputtering and die after 20 or 30min unless I did full choke. It would run again for a bit after cooling down and do the same behavior. Replaced fuel, cleaned carb. Same behavior... OK, so that told me there was a possible issue with the ignition control module. So I swapped it. Swapped the rotor also. I can get spark with a spark tester, but I see NOTHING on the spark plug (ngk tr5). I just tried a totally new ngk tr5 plug and still get the same results. Spark in the tester but not on the plug. I've tried jumping from battery positive to coil Positive. Same results. I dump some gas in the carb and I get nothing. No backfire, not a puff, not even trying to fire. Battery is good. I've even tried a booster on it. Flywheel Magnets are not stuck to the stator. New coil. New condensor. Compression on both cylinders good. Even replaced the ignition switch. I am currently at a loss.

If you look carefully where the RED arrow is pointing, you’ll notice slots in both the outer and inner points holding brackets. When you adjust the points, twisting a flat-bladed screwdriver spanning both slots lets you vary the gap precisely until the points are just resting on the feeler gauge. I keep the fixing screw (blue arrow) snug but not tight so there is friction as I make the adjustment then I tighten it when the gap is correct

After a run through ChatGPT of a GTG pic from last year, It’s close but it looks nothing like me… at least the Wheel Horse was closer.

I just went out and checked the frame and it doesn't appear to be broken but it looks like it had been repaired before in the past but it almost looks like an actual Wheel Horse fix and not some guy in his backyard because the paint matches the rest of the tractor and the welds are better than those that I've seen from owners fixing the f plate. I'll upload some pics later. -
I many parts of the film the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. I remember hearing that many of the best lines in the movie were not in the original script but were adlibbed during rehearsals.

Mike, did the economy tractor come with the loader or did you buy it separately? I've been looking for that whole set up (tractor and loader) for a couple of years now.

Yup, good film. As is "A Bronx Tale"..... Wise Guys.

It is a standard double sealed ball bearing that has miserable living conditions! Inaccessable behind the secondary impeller and gets wet constantly. I replaced it about 10 - 12 years ago... probably due for a new one.

Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit the family ranch. Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in financial trouble. In order to keep the bank from repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull from the stockyard in a far town so that they can breed their own stock. They only have $600 left. Upon leaving, the brunette tells her sister, “When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I’ll contact you to drive out after me and haul it home.” The brunette arrives at the stockyard, inspects the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less. After paying him, she drives to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news. She walks into the telegraph office and says, “I want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I’ve bought a bull for our ranch. I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so we can haul it home.” The telegraph operator explains that he’ll be glad to help her, then adds, “It’s just 99 cents a word.” Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette only has $1 left. She realizes that she’ll only be able to send her sister one word. After a few minutes of thinking, she nods and says, “I want you to send her one word: comfortable.” The operator shakes his head. ‘How is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her just the word “comfortable?” The brunette explains, “My sister’s blonde. The word’s big. She’ll read it very slowly … com-for-da-bull.”
