An electric tank type uses electricity with 100% efficiency meaning that all of the heat went directly into the water. The only loss is thru the jacket and that is very little. A tankless gas heater loses the heat going up the chimney plus all of the residual heat between uses.

I cleaned mine 3 times without a kit. Each time the surging got less so I kept cleaning till it stopped surging.

Need help with spring location on Wheelhorse 252H

Item #10 on this page looks like it but not much help except near the bottom of the engine. https://www.partstree.com/models/22-13ke02-252-h-toro-yard-tractor-1989/pto-clutch-24/ -

The rear wheels and tires will fit any traditional Wheel Horse that used 12 inch wheels. Just be aware that the rear tire size is what would be considered slightly smaller on the size scale. 308-8 and similar tractors used those tires. Looks like they will also need inner tubes due to the weather cracking. That will likely be another $40 or more. The front tires will work with any 8 inch front rims on a Wheel Horse, but those wheels will not. They do not have the right hubs for bearings. Personally, I would continue to look for new tires. These are already well torwards being worn out. If they were dirt cheap, they could work for a short while but not worth much at all.

What do you expect to find in a “rebuild kit”?

I totally agree, which is why I have pretty much all of them 🤣🤣🤣 -
Just found these within a resonable driving distance… would these work with 23x8.50x12? Even if buy them just for the wheels? Seller said: back wheels unusable but rims excellent condition.. are they alone worth $30.00?? And are they what I need? I took Eric’s recommendation and found some Deestone turf tires for $125.00 shipped.. so I’d be about $150.00 in for these used rims and new tires. Which I think is resonable considering my current 856 rears are Orignal Wheelhorse branded tires and Calcium filled wheels haha.

I sprayed the crap out of the intake. No change in throttle. I cleaned the upper part of the carb and it is running better and starting easier. I am hesitant to take the whole carb off without a quality rebuild kit in hand. anyone have one that they like? I am goi g over to Onan to try and find a part number for the rebuild kit and pray someone still offers it for sale.

We have LP on site for the Generac. Venting the unit might need some creative solutions. The concrete chimney starts below grade and runs up the back side of the house. I suppose it could be tapped into above the connection for the furnace. I doubt I could 'T' into the furnace flue pipe.... The furnace is about the same age. We have been thinking about going to LP for the next furnace and getting rid of the oil tank in the basement. Probably out to go to the next size larger LP tank if we make that conversion.

More efficient.... sure. .. but carefully consider the whole picture. Our 40 gallon electric water heater was about $400. For the record, installation was discounted and we only paid a couple hundred bucks. If it was a retail job we still wouldn't have had more than $800 or so into it. For a propane setup we were quoted THOUSANDS. Anywhere from $6K up to $15K NOT COUNTING getting a new tank and regulator. Point being..... our experience shows us... It would take a VERY long time even at a high usage rate to catch and pass the initial investment. Over and over and over again.... I've had conversations with people who get all freaked out about electric heat and/or electric hot water. It saved us WELL over a thousand dollars per year compared to the old oil system.

Would be nice if I had that river by me haha
-
The tankless unit only fires when water flows, the tank type keep on using gas all day. Much more efficient than an electric tank type.
-
I've bought from simpletire and Wally world. Something I've learned to pay attention to is the freight fee and other "service fees". Be very aware. I usually try to choose the tire I want.. then see who has the best price.
-
Not according to Reddit, I've never heard of them though. I just buy mine from those amazing fellers down the river.
-
It could, but this rack isn't meant for a lot of weight. These bins are going to be mostly for hunting,fishing, and camping gear. Probably the heaviest bin will have two pairs of chest waders in it.
-
I asked an HVAC and plumbing guy I know about one of those and he said they suck the gas down fast.
-
Cool idea, but I'd do shelves... weight on those plastic hanging on those edges might give way...

We ended up getting only about an inch, then it turned to rain. Ended up just shoveling the driveway, needed to get out of the house and the exercise.

The handle and chute come off with not too much trouble, take photos first. Download the manual for instructions when you know the model number.

22 years on a tank water heater is living on barrowed time, We have a Navien tankless water heater going on 15 years with no problems, If you have natural gas or LP that is the way to go.
