One member said I should rebuilt the carburetor on my 1990 Wheel Horse 310-8 tractor. I am sending pictures. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you have a rebuilt kit let me know. Engine is a MC10. A Walbro carburetor is on the tractor.

Hoping this roll on bed liner dulls out a little bit when it cures. Otherwise, I may have to dump a couple loads of stone with it.

My point exactly! ‘course we don’t see any of that powder stuff here. It’s alway somewhere between damp and slushy. Hence plow not blow.

My C85 with a K181 8hp throws every bit of 30 feet and 14” of snow. My RJ59 and 400 Suburban plows just as easily with 4hp K91. IMG_1265.mov

Raider 8 green wire going to start switch smoking and red hot
CasaytheMann replied to Wendelin Giebel's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
How many amps is the amp meter reading? -
Raider 8 green wire going to start switch smoking and red hot
953 nut replied to Wendelin Giebel's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
Is the black wire coming to the amp meter also getting hot? If not the green wire itself could be making some contact with ground or have a very bad connection, inspect it closely. The green wire comes directly from your battery via the amp meter. If the AMP Meter was the problem the black wire would be getting hot, not the green one so we will move on. The key switch is a strong possibility but lets test it before spending the money. Fore this test we will have four key positions, (1) OFF, (2) RUN with lights and PTO, (3) Run only and (4) Start. Please disconnect the battery "-" negative (ground) wire to prevent any accidental sparks or shorts during testing. Now disconnect the GREEN wire from the ignition switch and connect a 12 volt test light or DC volt meter between the terminal where the green wire had been and the green wire itself, and touch the battery ground cable you removed before and see what key positions the light or meter responds to. With the key switch in the OFF position there should be no connection to anything and the light or meter should not respond. Try to tap on the switch while it is in the off position to see if something internal shorting out. Next, remove the battery ground wire again and remove the wire to the ignition coil wire (I) and the regulator wire (R) from the ignition switch and turn the switch to the third position (RUN ONLY) and then touch the ground wire to the battery ground side again. There should be no action from the meter or test light presuming this is the factory correct switch and no one has messed with the wiring. Let us know what you come up with. -

Exactly what part of the carburetor have you identified as worn or broken?

What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse

First mow this year with my 520-8 with a 42”SD. Put down some nice stripes! Shameless plug: it’s listed on FB Marketplace -

It's my neighbor's tractor. I'll ask him. -
Definitely a clone. You’ll want to confirm the maker and availability of parts,
-
He said it was a Vanguard. @Echosoul has it. Connecticut, so it's not far.
-
The general concensus here is that if the OE part is at all rebuildable, you are better off to go that route instead of the "it may work or not" offshore knockoff option...

Less than 20 minutes ago we slapped new decals on this old horse. Between that and the freshly painted wheels, it looks a ton better. No longer has that "neglected" look, and the patina looks intentional now. PS: the oil on the floor is from a rototiller service, not the tractor. -
Yes I know it is a 36 year old tractor. And I also know it is going to be a hard find. SAD they don’t make things like this no more.
