Tractor looks like it spent a few summers here in NC! You did well finding a 161. They are not very common.
-
How cool is that!! I wouldn’t doubt it at all. Would be interesting to know what dealers they were sent to and such. I do know mine spent its entire life in western NC. Crazy to think after all those years they are both still in central NC now.

Not that I have ever seen.

No lights And lights ON! And took a bunch of sunset shots Enjoy!

Or a many years old muffler with alot of carbon buildup in it. I have 4 tractors with these on them. They all work well! As a matter of fact, Vanguards can get twitchy with a pulse pump. Using an electric on them is much better. Just food for thought if you go that route.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
T.R Hawthorne replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I finally after all these years got a 520h. Wheelhorses have been a family thing way back when. From generation to generation. In the 4th Gen and my sons are the 5th gen wheelhorse loyal fanatics. We farm them like a farm tractor. A shout out to sight admins for a fantastic forum! Thank you! -
Oh ok will do that thank you. does adding stabol to the non ethanol fuel affect it negatively at all?

It's all going to be for sale, not keeping any of it. -
Yes, that tank holds 1/2 a gallon. I'd put about a quart in the tractor and see how it runs on that stuff. If it runs poorly don't waste the old fuel, just put it in a car, the car will run fine even on stale fuel, then get fresh for the tractor. If you only have half a tank, or a little less, of stale fuel that leaves plenty of room to dilute it with fresh. I try not to store fuel more than a few weeks, but it should be good for at least six months.

I like those. Way better than original. -

Spent some time on the B-100 this weekend. Parts came in for the tranny so I was able to reassemble that. I discovered that the idle pulley for the drive belt was locked up so that got replaced. The plastic handle for the parking brake was missing so I spun some new ones out of aluminum on the lathe. Back together and ready for duty. -
Here is the tag from my first c-160. It's difficult to make out but: 61-16KS01-03388 6302 Possibly together on the production line in 1976. Almost certainly on the grounds together and might have come to NC in the same shipment.

The fuel pump is built into the carb on those engines, if it's original. Some variations from Craftsman tractors used a carb without an integrated fuel pump. Electric external fuel pumps won't work. Rebuild the carb and fuel pump. New fuel line and filter and see what happens. Backfiring could be caused by bad plugs or a coil that's failing.

there is no such thing in any market for any item as too high -- selling a house - a car, or a tractor - - the market will answer your question about price -- same for a house listing -- or a used washing machine you put at the curb at end of driveway -- if you ask 1500 for the WH and get no contacts in few weeks then that answered the question --- if you get few offers around 800 or only 400 -- or perhaps 1000 will then answer the question of "worth" -- meaning what someone is willing to pay --- if someone really wants it then they will pay -- if no one wants it except an offer for 500 then you'll know --- it was "worth" 500 - pick a number and post it -- Good luck !!

Nice little Allis B. I'm glad to see the it is an electric start model. Crank starting those little buggers can easily turn into a broken arm. -
Thank you. Have a conundrum… gonna be running hopefully driving my 856 tomorrow after a year of various work on it and delay.. has new fuel line.. aftermarket Amazon carb.. never filled or run with fuel yet.. new fuel filter.. fuel clamps.. brand new never run electronic fuel pump.. I have 2 and 5 gallon plastic gas cans of gas cans non ethanol fuel without stabol.. stored under a lean too.. central Florida. Fuel bought specifically for tractor but now is probably a year old now.. should I use it in tractor or empty and fill with new non ethanol fuel and put in stabil in cans this time for unused fuel

2026 Big Show Buy/Sell/Trade Thread

I appreciate your feedback! Would you say $1500 is too high?
-
Yes, that is what I was saying!
-
I think @c-series don was saying $ 400 to $ 600 for the deck alone. Though the paint is not bright and the hours are a bit high I wouldn't consider asking less than $ 1,000.00.

Place your shift lever in neutral and block the tires so the tractor can't move. Now take a small jumper wire from the battery "+" terminal to the small purple wire on the solenoid. If the starter turns over the solenoid is working.

314A trans issue.. is it scrap?
Handy Don replied to nyquil junkie's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Really it was WH reverse engineering it to fit within the tractor and, with an adaptor, attach to the same final drive casing as the Eaton 1100. Compromises! A worn motion cam plate or follower (or both) can prevent full range of input to the pump/motor control costing top speed in both directions. Worth a look (and not nearly as hard to get to)! (As designed, the hydro itself is direction agnostic--it’s the linkage that limits reverse.)
