I had a Coopers Hawk leave the same print on my bay window.

I am going to take it to my machine shop at some point. If it is not useable i think the engine is done. Overhaul Machine shop work plus parts kit $375 add a used crank which seems to run around 100 not sure it is worth it

I'd be happier with a much more explosive result. Like the porch pirate popping boxes filled with dye or paint.

Meanwhile... in the White Mountains of Maine... We've had multiple mornings well below freezing. This past Saturday the HIGH was 38⁰

The grinding marks on the end of the crankshaft aren't in line with rotation. They are horizontal or even in a slightly upward & opposite line. Here's a zoom & crop of your pic above. Notice similar straight lines in the same place. DEFINITELY AGREED. There's a LOT of damage on the journal.

WH Vertical Shaft Tractor / Rider "Roller"
SylvanLakeWH commented on SylvanLakeWH's classified in Wanted
Thank you for replying! Got a pic? Distance is an issue... What are you asking for it? -
Do check the overhung ends of the shaft for runout. I had to replace mine because one end was bent - that made the gear revolve in a "Potato Chip" motion.
-
@WHGuy413 , that is the tension adjusting bolt and nut for the belt, as that bolt is tightened, the assembly is moved causing tension on the belt.

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.

Closed. Found a donor deck.

Picked up a load of leaves chopped them into teeny tiny pieces, Then my neighbor tilled them into the garden. -
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.
