I agree with @lynnmor, seeing the Vee shape facing fowrard...
-
An Electro depending on the year can have one of 3 different ignition systems. 2 require a magneto switch on not. Using the wrong one an a magneto breakerless system will result in expensive smoke.
-
I have a 1970 electro 12: the switch works fine except I don't have any lights- no voltage from the switch "L" terminal, no problems starting or running. I think I'll just run a separate wire from the battery to power the lights, clutch(PTO), etc. I use this tractor as a plow tractor so I don't need the PTO to work.

I'm not too sure the beam on that kit will be wide enough to span the deck pulley, You may need to make an adaptor with a piece of channel iron to put under the beam.

Seal removal tricks?
Sparky-(Admin) replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Transmissions and transaxles
False alarm! She came out with some digging/ picking and strategically spoken swear words -
use an awl to make two small pilot holes 180* apart. Use two sheet metal screws tightening them alternately and the seal will back right out.
-
What model and year Wheel Horse are you seeking a switch for? Once we know this information we can give a more intelligent answer. The E464A is what was used on most early '70s Wheel Horses equipped with an electric PTO. The fourth position was to connect the solenoid to the battery alone. This reduced the load on the battery by preventing the lights and PTO from being powered while starting. A 103991 switch is a three position ignition switch for magneto ignition units. Your PTO switch probably has four wires going to it, two of those wires will not allow the starter to turn over while the PTO is in the ON position so the fourth position is not needed.

Any tricks to getting this brake seal out?

Thank You for you service and sacrifice.

I do remember that they did not need to pull the flywheel to install mine. Now that you say that I wonder if I have a slightly different kit but I'm sure it was aftermarket. -
Do you think it was added to assist in attaching to the tractor. I use a short piece of 4x4 and 6x6 to help me attach implements to my 414-8. Can it fold under the tiller when moving to be out of the way, if so it may be to assist in keeping it elevated.

How about a road trip Hon???
-
Looks like the C160 is best dressed for that!
-
My wife has been bugging me for a road trip to see autumn colors. Could be a "two birds, one stone" scenario. (though, taking her anywhere exponentially raises the cost )
-
I've got 3 strong C's
-
Maybe they just wanted to break up the center of the tilled area better, the tines are spaced apart to miss the tiller housing.

No more pulling tins & flywheels for finnicky points. -
FYI - that is the later "push" style, meant to go on a C, 300, or 400 series long frame tractor - it may work on a short frame tractor with some work... BUT, hey, for a Buck - how can you sleep at night???
-
They go for $ 250 or much more, you can break even on the cost for gas and have a nice trip looking at the autumn foliage along the way.

My kid is blaming me for ruining their birthday. That's ridiculous, I didn't even know it was today! My kid gave me a 'World's Best Dad' mug. At least she inherited my sense of humor.

@Pullstart This one is for you!

I want to thank my fellow veterans and am happy you made it home alive. Also, thank you to the families left behind while we were away from home, they had to do double duty until we returned.

FYI - A B&S part #398811 ( or aftermarket equivalent ) is a solid state coil that will eliminate the points on 7-16hp Briggs L head engines. No need to pull the flywheel to install either.
