    856: Facet fuel pump mounting help

    I just used gasket material and some silicone dressing just in case. But a regular fuel pump gasket will work just fine.

    @kpinnc That block off plate - did you use regular fuel pump gasket with that plate? I fabricated similar block off plate, they layin on the shelf with CarBole fuel pump, waiting for mechanical pump failure

    I don't have pics but it was L shaped with 3 holes drilled: one for the oil pan bolt and two for the pump. Fittings are 1/4 barbed elbow and I think a 3/8 NPT street elbow.

    Well I am late to the party but thanks for starting this Kev! I am interested in a non wheel horse item🫣…. I am looking for a pull behind or self driven top dressing unit. For those who don’t know, it is an attachment that you can spread topsoil or compost over your lawn. Let me know what you may have and price. 🙏

    What is it?

    I was wrong, I thought they were for climbing poles.
  13. Well the fun continues. First we had another flat tire due to the tire have a bad bead and poking a hole in the new tube. So today I got 2 brand new tires and tubes, cleaned the inside of the wheels up with a a wire wheel and solved that issue for now. I also got the new belts and mower deck installed. I sort of rigged it for now. Like I said all I have is my 120 arc welder and limited tools u til I get my shop setup but the grass isn’t waiting. So I sort of patched the shrouds up and this is when I realized I didn’t have a lift rod for the deck. So I used what I had to bandaid that problem. I’m going to have to either may something proper or find an actual part for it. My belt for the drive seems too long. I used the OEM but the adjustment has to be all the out for it to work and that push’s the deck so far back that sometimes it hits the rear wheel. Cant imagine if it has the oem 27” tires on it. But it was mowing pretty good otherwise until the mower died. I hopped off and check under the hood and seen nothing. Standing to the side I started it and it started right up. Hopped back on and hit the pto and as soon as I din that it died. I assumed it was the seat switch and it was. So I need to find a replacement for that but for now it’s bypassed.

    What did you do today?

    The only possible way a shop could be too big is if you couldn't afford to heat it. Even then, just build a wall and heat part of it. So I guess that means no, it can never be too big.

    1978 C-141 drive pulley routing

    How much tension when you engage it is more important but are sure about the belt size???

    Looks the same to me. Just joking with ya, its beautiful and probably 10 or 1000x better than I could do. Great work!

    Do you happen to have a picture showing how it’s attached to the tractor frame? You just used one fuel pump bolt to hold it in place? What size brass fitting are they?

    Have a picture of how it’s mounted? From front and behind perhaps?

    856: Facet fuel pump mounting help

    Does RJvin still post or frequent this forum anymore? Wanted to ask him exactly how he screwed the fuel pump up into the tank straps or pan the tank sits in.. watched the video but with the spacing of the fuel pump mounting holes and the fuel tank pan … it doesn’t quite make sense where it was screwed up into
  21. I’ve been working on the Frankenstein C-141 and getting my tractors ready for spring. Since I installed the engine in it, and it’s also my first and only hydro. I wanted to double check if the belt routing was right. I can put 3 fingers vertically on the upper belt guide between it and the belt before it has noticeable tension. I’m aware it’s disengaged in the photo but I thought the play was excessive. I’ve talked to @ebinmaine but we both agreed checking here about that would be a good idea.TIA

    Exhaust connections

    Which method? And @WHX?? Jim's method works OK. Certainly not as good as a real tap but... I use a thin cutting wheel to make the cuts in the threads on one end of the nipple, then use the other threaded side for the new pipe.

    If a fellow ever does have more barn than he needs. I'll guarantee that there are those (friends and/or family) who are more than willing to fill it.

    That's some quality there and a testament that they treat their people (employees) well

    @pfrederi Is that a C-48 or a C-60 Sweepster Broom ? It looks bigger than my C-48. Also I’d like to see better pictures of your caster wheels on the broom, mine doesn’t have any and I’d like to add some to maybe do a little de-thatching of my lawn.
