Recommendations for faded Wheelhorse paint
FLtractor replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
After reading about penetrol since rjg854 recommendation… it’s interesting it works so good on tractor finishes since it’s a product used to thin paint. So one would think it had the opposite effect and not shine it up generally. - Today

The big plastic shroiud on the magnum may cause you clearance issues. Just remove it (you can sell them for $$ and get a metal can air cleaner cover...

I’m one of those that decided to head home last night. Not only did I not want to show up to a rainy day I also knew it would be a fraction of what the show was on Thursday & Friday. And I was able to drive home at normal highway speeds on dry pavement pulling my trailer, much preferred over driving in the rain. Hope those that stayed enjoyed what was left.

It's yours if you want it. My paypal address is slhitchner@aol.com. How does $20 total sound to you? If that is ok, just send $20 to my paypal account with your mailing address, and I will get it in the mail to you.

So in the end, it wasn't the condenser so much as it was a coil without a resistor, or enough resistance and that was causing the points to burn up. The fact that the ground jumper for the shaker plate broke at the same may or may not have had any bearing on the situation. This was my first time around with a battery powered ignition, I thought a coil was a coil, and was running a new coil as a matter of course. Turns out not enough resistance, point crapped out in about an hour With the help of 953 nut, Gwest and several others I was able to learn about battery powered ignitions and get it back running. thanks everybody

Due to the threat of rain, many people left Friday evening, disappointing a lot of Saturday show goers. For those here today, the show goes on

Mower deck spindle replacement
OoPEZoO replied to Brockport Bill's topic in Implements and Attachments
I bought a set of the 8Ten branded spindles and pulleys for an old 48” deck I’ve been rebuilding. I have a whole box of spindles/pulleys/blades I’ve collected trying to keep my decks working. In this case, I was tired of trying to piece together original double D spindles and blades from other random decks. I have NOT installed them on the deck yet, but I have disassembled them to check’m out and I was very pleasantly surprised with the internal guts of them. They are cast aluminum housings, hollow spindle shafts with grease zerks on top, bearings look to be decent quality and are open on the inside to accept grease. Overall, I am very impressed with the build quality…..BUT, like said, I have yet to cut grass with them. I bought them from Amazon for $100 and then had to buy a replacement double pulley for the center deck spindle for another $30. There are a few threads on here breaking them down with pictures if you search for 8Ten. For the price, I had to take a chance on them. edit: I think direct links to Amazon are frowned upon, so here is the product header description for the spindles I bought for my 48” if it helps anyone “8TEN Mower Spindle Toro Side Rear Discharge 300 Series GT Recycler 48-Inch Deck 822327 111726 110172 3 Pack“ and the replacement double pulley “8TEN Center Spindle Pulley for Toro Wheel Horse 300 GT XT Series 15-48SC01 15-48SC02 15-48SC03 48-Inch 110147” -

So sorry to hear about this. Glad no one was seriously hurt. My in-laws went thru something like this in 2013 when some kids torched their house. I'll be keeping you in my prayers.

Recommendations for faded Wheelhorse paint
John c replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I've been working over a C101 recently, the original paint was in very bad shape, I wanted to do something but also wanted to keep the original look. I chose penetrol and was very pleased with it, the paint is still ratty, burned out and mostly missing, but it now has kind of a matte sheen to it. Home depot or Ace hardware will have it in the paint department -
Just reading this now after a late night drive home from PA…sorry Kevin. Everyone including the animals are OK and that’s huge! The house will be rebuilt

Recommendations for faded Wheelhorse paint
FLtractor replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
That’s good to know. So just wash the tractor first.. dry it completey.. apply penetrol. Wait 24 hours to wax to keep shine? -

You can either brush it on, or wipe it on. Somewhat self-leveling. -
