Possible blasphemy here, but coating the plastic dash with a suitable paint would go a long way toward reducing deterioration from UV.

And tubes of uncertain quality at $20+ each give us all agita.

Yep, and that the two sides couldn’t agree on a meeting point so each built miles of track past the other. Gub’ment arm twisting finally settled the location. It was lawyer Lincoln who years earlier had mediated standardization to U.S. track gauge (4’ 8.5”). Before that, there were many track gauges in use as each railroad had chosen its own, partly to avoid having to collaborate in any way that could benefit competitors. The chosen gauge took into account stability of the loaded rail cars, the radius needed for turns (since the steel wheels were, and still are, fixed to the axles--no differentials), and the amount of wood and ballast needed for ties and rail beds over thousands of miles of track.

Cracked mine months ago. Already glued. We will see what happens. Thinking of using allen head cap screws if I can find them.

Repair kit 25 757 01-S shown at the bottom of the parts list. Specs K181-30700 and K181-30743 use the same kit. https://www.partstree.com/models/k181-30743-kohler-k-series-engine-made-for-wheel-horse-8hp-6kw/carburetor-tp-2045-b-6/

Trying to "tune" my Walbro carb. For past three yrs it will not back down after having a higher rpm. However, if I'm using the PTO it will be okay? Sprayed a bit of B12 and seemed to be okay for 5 min, then you could see governor arm starting to search/surge? Further, probably needs a kit (carb), but hard to find. Also, I was thinking might be a good time to replace Governor spring?? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Really like my C-81. Been around since new.

thanks for the response....... -
I'd use the Autolite 295

Had the 314-8 out and put the mower on to mow the rough areas of the yard. Decided to change the trans oil while it’s good and warm. Probably better than 15 years since it was done last. This is what came out: shift boot is good, tractor is stored in a shed. Should I flush it with diesel or just refill with new oil? thanks

I did find Champion J8C Part Number: 841 with a pre gap of 0.030. Would these work or should I go with the Autolite 294? Anyone know the best spark plug gap for the K90/K91's?
-
Thanks for the info. Where do you guys buy the autolite 294's? Can't seem to find them.

Picked up some 1054 parts on my way to Indiana and what looks to be complete front mower mount at the Nappanee show this past weekend. 42" deck is pretty rough, but the one behind it is good!

I was in Indiana this past weekend visiting my Mom and my sister lives near Nappanee so of course put this on the schedule. I thought it was a pretty good showing for their garden tractor event. This is opposite their big tractor show which is in September. There were more than what I got pictures of, but they are definitely looking to expand this show. IMG_9518.mp4

I'm going to see if I can pick up a couple OEM's the next time I visit our local lawn tractor graveyard.

Happy Borned on Day, Karl

If you decide to go with an original and rebuild it, I may have a spare. I'd have to go look. Let me know.
-
Unfortunately, no. It came with an aftermarket starter when I bought it. The magnets came loose in that one. I replaced it with another aftermarket that I couldn't get aligned to the flywheel. This last one lasted about a year, not sure what the cause of failure was on it, but will do an autopsy once I take it off.
-
I crossed the Camp J8 to an Auto 295 with my Napa Prolink account. I believe the 294 is a colder plug
-
I'd agree except everything around me is like a mt. Yards are all hills and crazy slopes. Manual works great for that for me anyways.
-
That's just part of the ownership....

For mowing and plowing snow, automatic is the way to go, especially if you have a lot of forward and backward movement.

Happy Birthday Commissioner
