    856 cannot move - brake?

    When you let out the clutch what happens? Could be the transmission is stuck in two gears? If you jack up one rear wheel with the transmission in neutral will that wheel turn by hand?

    Good point. I’ve heard that but never actually seen it. Thank you for mentioning that
  4. Not sure snakes would survive your winters. You need barn cats!
  5. That's a good one to have around. You will find no mice nesting in your fan shroud with that one keeping watch. Our kids have a blue racer living under their front porch - see him/her in the grass sunning from time to time. And they have no mouse issues. It might be bigger than your black rat snake.

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    The hand-held band saw has replaced the sawmill as my fav!
  7. First thing is to be sure all the connections to the battery and the ground to the engine are clean and tight. Bad connection = resistance = higher voltage.
  8. That is my favorite tool!

    Is nine months long enough?

    Why? If they haven't done anything in nine months and haven't kept you informed then I don't think YOU should feel any obligation to that shop. Bring it home and let us diagnose the problem with you. Even if you need to rent or buy a tool or two it will be less expensive and quicker than having those keep it.

    Plugs that seem to fire on the head will actually not be firing when they are under compression

    My suggestion would be to get that thing home and away from that abuse. An easy check of the ignition timing is described in the service manual.

    Nice pun...😉
  16. I’m reading and learning and watching videos on these engines and have found the Adept Ape YouTube channel. Lots of good information there!

    What did you do today?

    Aka, " the patina of authenticity "

    I’m probably gonna check that this evening. so I may replace the plug, it was in okay shape but I’ve never changed it in the two years I’ve owned it. I’ve never had good luck with those testers so I just ground it to the sheet metal and spark was jumping the gap as it should.

    Wheel Horse Paint Recommendations

    This was a perfect color/sheen for the black part of a Black Hood tractor.
  20. I picked up the boy from scouts last night and he was in the gym beating the crap put of some kid twice his size with pool noodle. I think this was a genuine game and he was just dominating, not an actual violent incident.

    What did you do today?

    That is a beautiful EXPERIANCED work of art. It took a long time to develop that much character. Show it a bit of respect.
  22. Sounds a bit like the 1931 Ford AA doodlebug we had on the farm, It had two Granny gear four speed transmissions and if you put them both in low at an idle you could get off, walk around it, and get back on while it was moving. Not that I would ever have done such a foolish thing.

    Is nine months long enough?

    That would absolutely make sense. I hadn’t thought of that. I’m gonna give them another call today and see where they’re at. Thanks for the suggestion.

    It did fire, but it didn’t start.
