Thanks Sqrlgtr Both of my pump rebuild kits are Kohler. If the kits don't fit then I do have a Kohler composite/plastic replacement pump I can use but was trying to save it if possible. Does Antique Auto Parts sell other parts we need for these tractors? How many safety switches are on this tractor and are they NO or NC? When turning the ignition switch to on position, the voltage meter moved but the starter solenoid would not engage the starter. There is a wire but spliced together near the PTO lever but i can't see the switch. The wiring diagram shows a seat switch. isn't there usually a brake or clutch switch? I don't see them on the diagram. Thanks Charrie

I have rebuilt 4 of the original fuel pumps and they were all different on the inside but 3 of them looked alike on the outside. You just about have to take them apart to tell which one you have but they were all pretty straight forward to rebuild and they have been doing great ever since. I did have to go back through one of them because it seeped fuel between the pump body were it went together but a little more work on flattening of the two halves of pump body took care of it. I recommend Antique Auto Parts | Weymouth, MA | 781-335-8860 for fuel pump kits not the cheapest but have been the best in my opinion, and have always helped me if/when I had ????'s.

WH Vertical Shaft Tractor / Rider "Roller"

I have a B-111 in KS.... -
Yes, both are effective, but kind of boring. I like the shock factor and embarrassment of unexpected lights and noises and it satisfies a 'get even' urge I have for somebody messing with something of mine
-
I had this happen on a B-80 I bought about 3 months ago, the exact same thing. Piston was at TDC when I pulled the head and I pushed it down by hand.

Think I passed "kinda" a couple miles back lol

Batteries, starter motors, more wires don't need replacing or repairs? Yeah right. The manufacturers didn't come up with all this to save you gas. They did it to make the fuel mileage mandates. How much cheaper would cars be without all of this crap. Same thing in the field I was in before retirement. Used to be able to replace an HVAC blower for about a hundred. Now it's all electronically controlled motors with their own chips. Alot of them fail in a couple of years. Then there ate control boards on top of control boards. All to save a kilowatt here or there to get a better efficiency rating. Costing consumers thousands in the end.

I'll have to dig into storage to confirm, but I wanna say 8-32? Hopefully someone here can confirm. My memory kinda sucks.

I like your brush idea. I already have one of those around here somewhere. The rotating screen is not something I considered, but is probably significant. It will suck my hand toward the shroud at full throttle, so there is a lot of suction. I may experiment with a shield and see if anything makes a difference.

Kids phesant has been in for a week here, we've been out 3 times and only had one flush. I'm hoping the adult season goes better.

Aside from the cancel button the whole system is software. Nothing to replace.

Ahh the renamed economy line!! Never seen one with that paint scheme so that’s why didn’t recognize. Thanks

It's that time of year again - the semi annual migration of the house plants. We had our first frost threat last night so all t. he plants came back into the house. Since window space is limited in this old house, we end up grouping several in prime spots. Long story short , I built a plant stand. It's dry fitted for now, still needs a bit more work before it's ready to be put into service.

Here is a manual for the sickle that fit the Commando
-
Thank you @Thegearhead0324 it looks like his. Your picture of the front mount if you zoom in what is the threaded rod or bolt that’s there? We don’t have anything like that.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
cleat replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Just fluid fill them. Same amount of weight without scratching the paint. -
My ol budy@cafoose just swapped one into a 520HC. He may have some ideas on it I'm no help on the Briggs. Maybe @kpinnc will have some insight also I know he has swapped in a few also.

On trying to start the donor motor, It would start on spray and did this 3 times, then started blowing the 15A fuse every time I turned the switch to on! The de mystifaction guide tells me nothing. Now I have no spark. Should have been a straight swap, but I guess not.

Why not just a simple solution. Store the battery somewhere else...? Or simple disconnect switch hidden under hood?

Good afternoon. All WH sickle bars are basically the same design, except with the mounting as there are different models for different tractors. I’ve made quite a few posts about my sickle bar in the past and the one I recently got at the big show this past year. There are also a few members on here who are sickle bar pros and can tell you what models fit which tractors. Anyways, here are a couple pictures of what it should basically look like.

Yes. It would 100% need to be well hidden. Additionally, most horns are switched on the ground side, while the ignition and starter relays are switched on the power. It may well be better to wire it up so that the ignition switch always activates the horn in start, and there is a hidden button or something somewhere for the starter. I actually wouldn't be all that hard to re-wire the cigarette lighter to activate the starter. Building it into some existing control is the ultimate camouflage.
