Years ago when I first joined on here, I’ve learned so much and it’s the friendliest forum I’ve been part of. I keep interest in my WH and keep it going for two reasons, my dad, and this forum. I feel like the older generation is starting to fade away, which is very sad, and the newer generation is on other social media like facebook and instagram and others. I look back at posts from 7-8 years ago and quite a few of the usernames are now green, very sad, may they rest in peace. We gotta get this generation into this hobby and addiction. I only use FB for the marketplace, when sellers/buyers aren’t asking for the moon or lowballing. We gotta let folks know how great this site is, as the people and information have been such a big help over the years for me. Confucius say “good people+good tractors=happiness.” -

As you may or should have noticed, all of your posts on this customization has been moved to the Restoration, Modifications & Customization forum. I would appreciate it, if you take notice and start posting about this project in that forum, not the main Wheel Hose Tractor forum. Thanks. -
I create new post, We talked about : 10-12 HP Kohler Propane conversion @Handy Don Yes, good point. My pros: no ethanol, cheaper to run. What about one more thing: cast iron Kohlers are old design, are these engines fit for that conversions? Any problems to look for? More often to check valve clearances? possibility of burnt out valves etc? I have bi fuel minivan myself so this is very interesting topic for me. Price ratio LPG:Gasoline in PL is more user friendly, usually 60% cheaper than premium E5 gas, and readily available (95% gas stations has LPG fueling capabilities and 12% cars are bi-fuels). I see one problem in winter: we have winter propane/butane mix of 60/40 (%) so with air cooled engine this is probably no-no. Pure propane is available but more expensive.

I loaded the feeder about a week ago. The first one showed up this evening. I haven't set out the hummingbird feeders yet but will this weekend.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

Slowly getting the tractors outta storage in back shed. Wanna go thru them one at a time getting them ready for summer. Hasn't been easy cause we've had so much rain. Yard is like a swamp & don't wanna have a mess moving them from shed to garage. Got the rat rod all ready & added a simple belt guard. Have been fortunate so far not to get my jeans jammed up in pulleys/belt. Try to keep moving on to next ones.... -
Yes everything. Jerry

Is it $500 for everything? Very interested

Many old machine shops had wood block floors, one reason is that expensive parts and tools might not be damaged if dropped. I worked at Sylvania where we had a wood block floor in the tool & die shop. Coolant was mixed and stored in a 55 gallon drum filled using a slow running garden hose. One time I lost track of time doing other things and the drum ran over soaking the wood blocks, you should have seen how high that swelling went and how the boss lost it in me.

Just remove the ring gear from the 301 flywheel. I've done 2 of them. Easy Peasy. You can slice the ring gear off with a cutting wheel.

Got the tri-ribs swapped over, replaced the front tie rods, and topped off the trans oil. Then gave my youngest a ride around the yard. It’s nice having this back up and running fully again. -
The k241 has a different stroke then the k301. Therefore, the cranks are different and can’t be swapped. Additionally, the flywheel for the starter generator is not set up for a stator and the bearing plates are also different because of the mounting of the stator. The only option is the measure both flywheels and take the ring gear off the one flywheel when it’s cherry red. Once it’s off, heat the ring gear cherry red and drop in on the other flywheel and let cool.

I've had my feeders out for two weeks and no hummers yet. Maybe Sunday....a two day flight from NE Pa to SC Pa.

Multiple photos of the entire belt system might help us see the problem. Remove the carburetor and clean it out completely. I wonder if you messed up the adjusting screws or the carburetor body with all of the adjusting.

Wheel Horse part # 7473, 5/8" by 82"

Your belt guard, S / G and the bracket it mounts on will be a direct swap as will the flywheel cover but I don't think the flywheel from a k-241 will be compatible with the K-301 crank shaft due to balancing differances. Perhaps @gwest_ca or @richmondred01 can confirm this one way or the other.
