I purchased a Wheel Horse a few years ago from a gentleman on Marketplace saying it was a 64' 754 7hp model # 48046. Now yesterday I listed it on Marketplace, this guy sends me a message today stating this model #48046 is an 854. Could someone clear this up for me. I don't know how to get pictures attached, sorry. It has a 754 lettering on belt guard, which I understand that could have been switched, but it still has a K161S engine in it. So, he sells m a 754 and now years later tells me I have an 854? Thanks, Dano.

Regular gas only in all my small engines ,worth the extra $ in my opinion.

I’ve run local regular gas in all my tractors since I rehabbed and started using them. I’d assume they have ethanol, but I haven’t had any problems yet with any of the associated problems with running ethanol in the gas so possibly not. I’ve had my 312 for four years and no issues. ethanol in the gas so emissions it will pass but the rubber lines don’t last for us to cut grass with our tractors from the past I was going for a Dr. Seussesqe rhyme I’m on the fence about if I did it.

Replacement Seat From Tractor Supply
MainelyWheelhorse replied to hotajax's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I have a TS seat on my 308 it was a direct bolt on affair. One of the pre drilled bolt patterns in the seat bottom is the 7.5 x 7 Wheel Horse seat bolt pattern. I’d assume the others in that brand have the same pattern built in. It’s a bit expensive but I haven’t had an issue with the seat. -
Thanks guys, many great answers as always, I take advantage of these ideas for sure!

As requested... Ethanol in gas Nonsensical additive Government of course

I'm looking for parts and or useable case for this rear bagger blower, or even another blower. I'm sure there is a hole or holes behind the duct tape. I'm open to ideas on how to fix it too. This is how I got it and it's pretty rough to say the least. Any help is appreciated.
-
Another approach. I use skids on my plow and run on float no down pressure (gravel and uneven surfaces) also like to have extra weight on the front The hole in the lower plate is elongated front to rear to allow for plow going up and down.

A local radio station had a pun contest. A guy really wanted to win. He submitted ten puns. None of them won the contest. No pun in ten did.

ethanol free is definitely worth a couple extra bucks! especially when available to you locally. do you really want more problems in your life? i have to travel about 1.5 hours from my home to get e-free gas in another state. well worth the extra time to avoid many, many hours of fuel related problems IMO. regards mike

Suburban - 4x4…. Will it work?
peter lena replied to meadowfield's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
@meadowfield awesome ! your very typical detailing is showing you the way , a stand out for me . would be the related , chain lubrication , should be specific to that , would also think , polyurea rating , anti sling , open gear , cable related , sure you have a similar lube over there .BTW my favorite LUCAS X TRA HD , green chassis grease , has eliminated , , mower deck bearing failure / whine , 560 deg , drop point , been bombproof , important to flush out any original lube , ensuring no cross contamination, also perfect on pto lever , cone needle bearing , minimal ammount , spin up is very easy , responsive . love your work ! pete -
I remember one of you gents told me you bot a seat from TS, and it bolted right on. I can't remember who the member was, but the dealer was definitely Tractor Supply. If you can remember some details about the seat, I'd be appreciative. Thanks.

Good day gents, (and ladies - got to be fair, you know ): Do y'all have recommendation for a seat? No I don't need a beer can holder or stereo. Plain old seat. it's over 40 years old, the vinyl is nice and crispy and now cracked the whole length of it. Need something to support my fat ass that will bolt right on. Thank you gents.
-
Agreed. I had that thought too.

ignore the cut down axle - it’s hardened so I had to angle grind. Snap ring in place now -
Thanks. Perhaps @SylvanLakeWH can do a haiku?!

Nicely done sir.

Ok! .... I am getting closer. Appreciate you guys dumbing it down... So, After NOT finding 12v power at the light blue wire on the relay, I realized I was mostly following the complete diagram, but after seeing the start one again, I can decipher the "Starter Motor Circuit" on the dymystification guide a little more. So, I basically followed the power until i didn't find it flowing on the "starter motor circuit" (like 953nut said) before I got too far, I unplugged this connector and I went to test for 12v at this plug and I tried to start it for the heck of it and it turns right over with the key switch when unplugged. Obviously it wouldn't charge with unplugged... Then, I took the orange/tan connectors out of plug and then I got thinking, why does it even start with that entire thing unplugged? I thought bypassing the low oil switch was needed to start it? To complete the circuit... So it being unplugged, it shouldn't have turned over with key switch? I got this machine with the starter bypass push button and the key switch was really corroded on post where red wire connects. And the plug in pic was already spliced with a wire nut and had electrical tape on. Is that blue wire nut splice and having it plugged in actually causing the no start? So possibly PO put the push start on and spliced that maybe because the oil switch is bad? Am I on the right track? I'll get more time this weekend then, hopefully soon it's time for cleaning/ greasing and fixing the stuff I know how to! Also, NO continuity on the low oil switch.

ETHANOL: Eventually Tank Harbors Annoying, Nasty, Obstructive Lumps
-
Fortunately that unit is on an end wall so no snow issues that way. I will keep an eye on it but it should be fine.
-
I’m surprised that they installed the external part parallel to the wall and not perpendicular or farther out, especially with the snowfall levels in your area an possible roof shedding. You’ll have to keep an eye on the space between the unit and the wall since the unit dumps heat in the summer, but dumps cooler air in winter.
