Have you read the trouble shooting section of the manual @gwest_ca sent you six days ago? There are several areas to check. You replaced the fuel filter but have you removed the fuel hose at the carburetor to verify fuel is being delivered when the engine is turning? Have you removed the flywheel cover to inspect the ignition components and the air gap? These are things you need to yourself, the website is good but it can't transport us to your shop to do the job or hold your hand.

My first starter-generator. Is it loud?

Could be the start of a whole new thread. "Show us your Cardboard" - subcategories "paint silhouettes" and "grease and oil catchers" - Today

There should be guards over the deck pulleys, ask if he has them.

I have several pieces of cardboard that look just like that! -
What's the difference between a man's wallet before and after kids? There are pictures where the money used to be.

Your ... evidently I have the pics to do that instructional! -
The early cast had a vibrant banter between them. They too focused on the weeks Political Events that they deem "noteworthy" Now, 11:30 is waaaay past my bedtime!

It is extremely important to undercut the mica on the armature, but must be done carefully. It not only removes the brush carbon that can short 2 adjacent contact pads, but gives room for more! -

And sending the show HLs to WHX ... oh that's right I don't have one like that ... yet ... but when I do... I have yet to pull one that had a bushing yet still had oiler cups. Very seldom had to replace brushes Richard Doesn't matter you have to perform surgery both are gonna get replaced. I really should do that SG instructional some day ... along with fuel pumps. Pics for motivation Bar. Note the black fingers ... dummy was too dumb to were gloves ... -
That is a great model tractor. Check the tires for age cracks , use that to negotiate. What's your intended usage? I'm not that familiar with that older style deck. But maybe someone can comment whether it has the "Double D" deck spindles and blade availability. I know you can upgrade the deck to complete new spindles with common size shafts. An ebay seller has them for for the price of just buying bearings.

You'll find no shortage of opinions, here! WARNING!!! - This place is full of "enablers" that believe you should own a Wheel Horse for every day of the week! With regards to the one you're asking about, location plays a factor. Make an offer and see where you and the seller come to agreement. Here is Indiana, it's a $400 to $500 find. Once the Wheel Horse bug hits you, be prepared to spend more money on dialing it in and adding attachments.

There was a manual lift kit available.

We only watch the holiday editions now. A lot of the "topical" humor was directed at obscure current events that we never heard of.
-
Even back in 1975 I had trouble finding humor in many of the skits.

May as well plan on replacing the brushes while you have it apart, has several vendors selling kits with bearings, bushings, brushes and springs for under $ 30.00. -
It does not lift.

Sorry but that show ain't what it used to be, haven't cared to watch it no way, no how.

We're out gallavanting looking at land a couple hours north

2 follow the advice given all ready to make sure it functions as it should. If you end up purchasing it, we have a check list to go through a new to you tractor. A good working hydro is a big advantage when mowing if you have a lot of forward reverse type work.

I lost one more of my nine lives back in December when an artery burst in my colon and pumped out 4-5 ozs of fuel every hour. Hemoglobin dropped from 17 to 6.5 in 20 hours. They went up the exhaust pipe with a light, camera, and soldering iron but couldn't find the leak. They pumped in some new blood and it sealed on it's own moments before I cashed in. Glad to hear you guys are still playing.

That describes a whole bunch of us here.... I'm one too! Chargers are a great tractor, @pfrederi has several of them. Do the test that @Ed Kennell mentioned and ask about the seller's history with the Charger. Hope you have room for more Wheel Horses, they tend to be habit forming.
