What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Racinbob replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
OK, back from mini road trip. One quick question for those who have done it. From what I'm seeing it's very possible to remove the balance gears by simply removing the oil pan. Am I seeing it right? -
Nova 2 electronic ignition module on a 633 Wheel Horse

I tried one on a 'burb Clinton but didn’t have any luck. Might have been a defective one. @Achto had one on a 'burb Kohler K91 and it worked. I think when he did the resto he went back to points. -
That looks like surface rust to me, though there is no certainty until you start to remove it. Being not-to-aggessive is a good way to start: fine emory paper or a fine/soft drill-mounted wire brush. Let what you find drive your next steps. If the socket hadn’t been kept lubed, though, then there might be wear. If you have the tooling for drilling out and sleeving, that is surely possible (remember to reopen the zerk opening). Your tolerance of wear and steering play once all is cleaned up will drive the decision. Do remember that this was NEVER a “precision” machine .

Added on to the shop last Fall. Got the wood shop and one side is my wife's side for doing crafts. She would be working on her stuff, and I'd be sanding the steering wheel. She would say, "You still sanding on that steering wheel?" Now she says, "That looks Good!" I spent a lot of hours making it round again. Ended up using SEM Color Coat Satin Black flexible paint on the steering wheel. Also used Rustoleum filler primer and Rustoleum adhesion promoter, so I hope the paint will stay on the steering wheel. Trying to get something that will last. Cleaning off an old table to start on the transmission. Going to make a stand with 4X4 leftovers to hold the transmission for disassembly. Got to get a replacement pump for my parts washer. I'm making good progress. The old Ariens tractor is back together, and I need to change the transmission oil and filter and fix the wiring. Then I can move that tractor out and work on this one. For now, I'll just take the transmission out and leave the tractor in the shipping container. Spending a lot of time researching old posts and getting information. Project is coming along. y This is the upper steering bearing. It really looks rusty. Wondering if I need to sleeve it, or just hone it out. Dave

I have one on a 1978 Briggs 8 horsepower engine. Very happy with it. -
Nova 2 electronic ignition module on a 633 Wheel Horse
Lane Ranger posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
1963 Wheel Horse 633 garden tractor I spent two hours working on my brother’s 633 Wheel Horse today. Adjusted the throttle cable and linkage and put a Nova 2 electronic ignition module on the tractor. The Nova 2 ignition module eliminates the use if points and provides sufficient spark to start this Kohler recoil start motor on yhe 633. I have used the Nova 2 on my k91 4 hp Kohler motors before but this is the first time using it on a larger motor. I learned the Nova 2 will work on bigger Kohler motors with the magneto ignition just about a month ago. It starts right up on first or second pull of the recoil! -

Removing Mower deck pulleys
Brockport Bill replied to Brockport Bill's topic in Implements and Attachments
thanks for that tool recomendation -- dont have that -- i used 2 small hand pry bars - - one 2 ft pry bar and also 3 leg standard puller with impact gun - wont lift pulley at all --- i have cut them off before ( see phots ) but very challenging without damage to shaft theads -- trying to avoid the cost of new shafts together with new pulleys -- thanks for suggstions -

Removing Mower deck pulleys
Gasaholic replied to Brockport Bill's topic in Implements and Attachments
Given the badly rust pitted condition of the pulley groove for belt , I wouldnt even try to save the pulley at all - even if it could be saved and "cleaned up" the rust pits will just tear up a new belt anyhow, so I'd be looking for replacement pulleys and then just cut the thing off .. tear off the pulley from the hub and use a puller on the hub itself in worst case, or a hacksw or cut off wheel to shave off one side of the hub right up next to the spindle shaft on either side and split it... but on pulley that could be saved, one trick we used was cutting slots around the hub (with a cut off wheel or some such) to snug in a bearing splitter puller like this: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/vevor-bearing-puller-kit-14-piece-5-ton-capacity-bearing-separator-pinion-wheel-bearing-removal-kit-black/JJGHKKVJLV/sku/12333864 sort of like the other pulley design that you could use an automotive power steering pump pulley puller..
