    Need new voltage regulator.. S/G Belt

    If you decide to replace, please don’t discard the original--someone here would likely take it to attempt a refurb.

    8hp kohler throttle linkage.

    The cable should be going to the governor and the governor adjusted for operating RPMs.

    At a second look, they both are techys because the back one has the carb hole and the exhaust hole on the front of the engine instead of the exhaust being on the side like a small block Kohler
  13. Yes, I posted that on FB and yes, the Kubota option is one I am considering, but here are two others that are less expensive and available on Ebay and Amazon. Need to verify diameter eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/174588909755?_trkparms=itmf%3D1%26aid%3D1110018%26rkt%3D12%26asc%3D344080%26pid%3D101196%26mech%3D1%26algv%3DCompVIDesktopATF2V6ReplaceKnnV4WithVectorDbNsOptHotPlRecallWithSiblingFilterCpcRecallsWithCiiQueryEmbedding%26pmt%3D1%26amclksrc%3DITM%26sd%3D227214299900%26sid%3DAQALAAAAEJeDhwBapmQWfVf6XDRpd%2Bk%3D%26itm%3D174588909755%26noa%3D0%26plcampt%3D0%3A10606735018%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.COMPLISTINGS%26ao%3D1%26rk%3D2%26mehot%3Dpf%26lsid%3D0%26meid%3D86f6adb780ff4872bb4d342a8769425e%26pg%3D2332490&_trksid=p2332490.c101196.m2219&itmprp=cksum%3A17458890975586f6adb780ff4872bb4d342a8769425e|enc%3AAQALAAABUPc4YgTWUogX4l4Wo4r6rbj89PpwuaernzlZ%2BQ9Jflnere4td0FNO7ZUFpdCZ5W1PHVcKr90xHJ8HZYqTb2OAMqpJmPfQb42ATbkA3%2F%2B2uHBZ%2FYS0K3D8IU17hUyYNcxbIlqG%2FrH0utxChRg1mB7bHUImj0j3aY2c1c2IP9QtQUp7WnHEpRbT7snbYepGXsDgIdweULnU3zxciqNHc%2FP6cX8%2FPX%2BhYQScufzovLUlM9WfcXsD8Pr7KkcpL%2Fpfvrx%2F2e%2Fg9GPEtJmP8L%2FspHQieImJHUzJpmUqXKXQyAomO9lPheSKzBI%2BsLsYNISmRwxFpCXDitwIRahFl%2BkzTPs4wZLtVpnrjoapayci75NWRloBNIvE2qO9U%2FRGBFK%2BC0AmkSN2isProecPQ1U7wZnv2AESnnCQcGQGBaLSq5Q%2FnEWbbhNuYsVV%2FmTggkglCCFfQ%3D%3D|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A2332490&itmmeta=01M3CBBJ2C2E35VWP02NHV30H8 Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/ElaraBerry-Compatible-Am125172-Am136327-Tractor/dp/B0GLF7BHR5/ref=pd_ybh_a_d_sccl_1/135-7969927-5303418?pd_rd_w=18jTI&content-id=amzn1.sym.67f8cf21-ade4-4299-b433-69e404eeecf1&pf_rd_p=67f8cf21-ade4-4299-b433-69e404eeecf1&pf_rd_r=3TVYWRYPVJJSKKZ2VV5M&pd_rd_wg=ciMMN&pd_rd_r=3c001547-4125-4f18-925d-167c8883f16f&pd_rd_i=B0GLF7BHR5&psc=1
  14. @stevasaurus already covered that one very nicely.
  15. Oops, too late, some assembly required!
  16. Kubota uses the same pathetic design, perhaps it is the same manufacturer. Often Kubota has the wheels broken off at the deck shell.

    8hp kohler throttle linkage.

    The 855 is from the mid sixties and to my knowledge, it’s the original 8hp k181. It was purchased from the original owner 40 years ago. At one time the throttle cable was a generic after market type. When I rebuilt the tractor years ago I bought an oem cable. I’ve never been able to get it to work properly by attaching the cable to the throttle plate as indicated in the shop manual. Out of desperation, I put the cable in the hole on the throttle arm. This was done mainly because the cable bracket won’t stay put behind the throttle plate.

  19. So this link appeared in a FB post as a Kubota part that apparently serves as a replacement: https://www.messicks.com/parts/kubota/k5351-42100?term&utm_source=google&utm_medium=paid&gad_source=4&gad_campaignid=20359475644&gbraid=0AAAAAD-1gA8EhJ1N2cX1GBAoU1_VYE8Iz&gclid=Cj0KCQjwt9jVBhDXARIsAFSP-6eJ67hylMs8NhHymfRmABQ6GSxmDVPzAlc10qyjlE1t3O5poX2Ke_8aAqlsEALw_wcB&fbclid=IwdGRjcAUjSrdleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBwZG9mAWZkaWQWUPGxTaPlfMIV34ipnXd0nwhDyuzn_3NydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR7Ecld0Z55jymYw31uCu_SX7r9jxlU9JTM2vYK5SbY1c4tDvxT-FEiwv0vJuA_aem_WDygj-HtsQ_7WxVR7tsTdw

  22. September 25, 1965, the Kansas City Athletics start ageless wonder Satchel Paige in a game against the Boston Red Sox. The 59-year-old Paige, a ***** League legend, proved his greatness once again by giving up only one hit in his three innings of play.
