Morgan a '73 plow horse
AlexR replied to AlexR's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
There are some much more knowledgeable people that will probably know for sure. But I believe from what I have seen the charger/bronco early c series cylinders are longer. -

I definitely had some concerns. It's been a minute since I properly rebuilt a Kohler, and this was my first small block. This engine got the full treatment. New bore, reground crank, and valves and seats recut. I stayed with the original smaller cylinder bore (at .010 over), but it all worked out. I will say this: the engine runs great but this old K161 has a sharper muffler report than a K181. I had noticed it watching some old YouTube videos of 701s put up by various owners, and wondered if mine would do the same. It's not bad, but it has a "pop" where a K181 has a lower tone. No biggie, but it is noticeable. I just hope it gives another few decades of service now!

@WHX?? picked one of these up at a flee market last weekend, of course he got the last one there. I found them on the jungle site. Handy tool to have, doesn't take up much room, and a low price. https://www.amazon.com/WINAMOO-Automotive-Voltmeter-Polarity-Stainless/dp/B0D8PXNPYH/ref=sr_1_6

How many of you were there in '99?
rmaynard replied to 953 nut's topic in Wheel Horse Collectors Club Show
I had been a Wheel Horse owner for only 6 years at that time. I had no idea what I had or what I'd be getting into over the next couple of decades.- 1 reply

Oildyne 108 hydraulic pump from 72110
MShepheard replied to MShepheard's topic in Implements and Attachments
Thanks for all the advice, having taken the pump motor apart and checked out the windings it's definitely had it. Managed to source a secondhand pump and actuator assembly from ebay and now in the throws of swapping the whole lot out but even with the two main bracket bolts and the small support bracket removed I cant shift it. Anybody got any words of wisdom ?? -
If you get it from Tractor Supply you need to check both the sleeve and belt. Some people take them out and put them back in the wronge sleeve.

The Kohler 230722 Condenser fits all battery ignition single cylinder and twin cylinder from the K-90 to the K-582. The unit of measure for a condenser is the Farad, and our small engines use a condenser that is in the nanofarad range (ten to the minus ninth power Farads) which is based on the voltage range they work in. A battery ignition system uses a 200 to 500 nF condenser. The lower end of the spectrum is preferable as too high a rating will allow more flow resulting in coil overheating. Do not use a condenser intended for a magneto ignition because its rating is too low and will result in burned ignition point contacts. Most automotive points condensers will be fine. I have used the 1960s Ford condenser ( 250 to 280 nF) because I had a few on the shelf. The 1967 and earlier VW had an ignition coil with a built in resistor like the ones on a Kohler Though they do have a little extra wire on them you can eliminate they too are in the proper range and should be readily available at an auto parts store.

June 16, 1884, the first roller coaster in America opens at Coney Island, in Brooklyn, New York. Known as a switchback railway, it was the brainchild of LaMarcus Thompson, traveled approximately six miles per hour and cost a nickel to ride. The new entertainment was an instant success and by the turn of the century there were hundreds of roller coasters around the country.

Repower 520HC with Predator 670 v-twin - PTO Clutch Question
Bill D replied to twin520's topic in Engines
I believe the predator has a ball bearing supported crankshaft. The manual PTO should work. -

Repower 520HC with Predator 670 v-twin - PTO Clutch Question
Achto replied to twin520's topic in Engines
I would think that any electric clutch from a should work. Most should be set up for 1 1/8 keyed shaft. Electro 12 for example. -

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
adsm08 replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Mercury is hard to see. It usually sits so close to the horizon that trees or other buildings block it, unless you can get up high. It should be sitting higher now in the northern hemisphere because it's mid-year and we are tilted that way. I would have loved to get out and see that too, but I was beat last night. Watching Jupiter through the telescope is one of my favorite things to do, but it's better viewing in winter, less distortion from the atmosphere. On a good night I can see the red spot, some of the larger bands, and up to 5 moons if they are in the right spots. -
Awesome!! That is the best feeling when everything works.
