    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    @ebinmaine @Sparky You guys want it? It’s my brother’s and he is thinking about getting rid of it. It’s pretty solid.

    Got another one. A 416 this time.

    Next one of those blocks that I drill out and install bushings into will get well documented. Likely next summer.

    Thanks both of you. So there’s no set location in the 9 pin connector for locating the wires, just make sure the second half location matches the first. But I’ve never had a Wheelhorse that lit up all the indicator lights. What sets that off? The owners manual just says a defect will record as a flashing light on the appropriate signal. It doesn’t say they all light up. Also, I thought a ground was just a ground. The wiring diagram specifically says the oil pressure black ground goes to the hour meter. Is it possible I have the wrong black ground on the hour meter? It works just fine recording time running.

    We have reached 1000 pages of wheelhorse and other random stuff information and just a bunch of really interesting conversations and learning points
  8. I will never understand the reasoning behind people painting RJs green. I get what the PO was going for, just don't know why. I had a green one myself. Otherwise it was in decent shape. Looks like it will make a fun project!

    So I bought a 953 and a 1054

    Alright! Thanks for the info! I thought I’d have to put an aftermarket seat on

    HY 2 Hydraulic Leak

    I've posted about this thing before. Its leaked ever since I got it due to the hole where the input shaft is being wallowed out. I've done seals may times, but i'm just sick of it making a mess of the tractor. Im thinking about taking it off amd putting a manual lift on, but that almost ruins the tractor. Would anyone have a pump that is in better shape than this one i could swap out? Thoughts on the whole ordeal??

    The oil pressure switch supplies the ground to the hour meter thru the black wire when there is oil pressure. The oil pressure switch also supplies the ground to the oil light thru the dark blue wire when there is no pressure.

    Vintage Mowers/Tractor for Sale

    Three nice vintage mowers/tractor for sale. The GT14 needs a head gasket but was running when the original one was removed. The Commando 8 has been sand blasted, repainted, and runs like new. it does need tires. The Charger needs restoring. Was told it had a burnt valve when I bought it. I have the scrape blade for the GT14.

    This wiring guide should be helpful.
  15. Here are the wiring diagrams for your model.

    Dashboard lighting

    I have a 97 520H. Probably one of the last of the great ones. It has a different steering wheel, much thicker then previous years, also belt cover and different rubber footpads. Problem is dashlights all come on when turning key to start, but then when engine runs all remain bright but the oil pressure light constantly blinks. Occasionally the dash lights will all go off and stay off after engine is running. My 9 pin connector has top left(no.1?) wire cut and removed. I took the oil filter off, felt for the switch and found wire intact and connected. Impossible to see the color. I’ve jiggled the nine pin, no luck. Some times the safety switch on the trans control behind the vertical dash panel seems to solve the flashing oil light and steady rest of the lights. I’ve replaced the ignition switch twice, but wonder if there’s a special one year only ignition switch. I have wiring diagrams, I’m pretty good on tracing, but with faded colors on the wires entering the 9 pin connector I’m not sure which it is. I need an actual diagram of the 9 pin to see what goes to and came from. What to try next? Engine runs fine, powerful, no issues otherwise.

    I'm stuffed

    I generally use the Pepperidge Farms Herb stuffing from the bag. One year I decided to go all out Diced up pumpernickel, sourdough, and rye breads, diced up cooked sausage and water chestnuts along with some crushed pecans. I was following a Paula Deen recipe and was looking forward to impressing the whole family. The customary way of calling out a teaspoon measure is with a lower case t and an upper case T for a tablespoon (three times as much as a teaspoon). Well, as printed the recipe called for 2T poultry seasoning, For those who like a good savory dressing, go for it, use some extra poultry seasoning! Unfortunately my family didn't enjoy savory dressing. Since the I have had to leave the empty Pepperidge Farms bag on the kitchen counter next to the dressing for everyone to see.

    Don't you feel a little bit guilty? Should have offered him at Twice least that. Marv

    It's not hard, you just need the right drill press vice. I'll have to take some pictures.

    Perhaps the moderators can pin his restoration threads for future reference.

    312-8 overcharging, no regulator?

    Here is the electrical for a 3 amp system on the 312-8

    Need to figure out some angles and clamping...

    I've done it. I'm sure you could too. You have the drill press for it now.

    Fresh find 704

    That would be the hit of the Big Show parade, Wild Bill would probably have a hundred comments and questions about it. "Bill, I don't know how old the trees are, let's count the rings.
