Wheelhorse 1 flaw… rear gas tank mounting.
mrc replied to AHS's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
hi AHS, very common problem with the 300, 400 and some 500 series wh tractors. i used to use 1/8 X 1.5" angle iron like ri702bill suggested. now i buy a kit from brockport bill. bolts right on. easy- peasy. also ri702bill makes a nice kit to reinforce the 'F' plate. both kits are well worth the $$$ imo. - Today

"Carb wide open" is A LOT of air entering into it so that means a good amount of fuel is needed as well just to keep it running, or the mixture would be way too lean and it would stop. How slow is it slowing down to?

The problem is doe... way to many... and a lot of hunters have a buck only mentality. I want meat, and a reduction in the herd. But I am not the norm. So in 2027 State is going to a 1 buck rule and is considering a bonus buck if you take a doe first... this past year in the lower peninsula you could take up to 12 doe if you are not a farmer... should tell you what the State thinks is the problem...

That seems odd with all this talk of exploding tick populations due to too many deer surviving the warm winters caused by cow farts. Or was that a personal choice, not MI law?

Glade you boys got the day before the rain came - Yesterday

Well I determined this morning that the governor is holding the carb wide open when the engine slows down. So it's not the governor.

Wheelhorse 1 flaw… rear gas tank mounting.
lynnmor replied to AHS's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Part 1 & part 6 go together. Part 1 is where the gas tank ears poke thru. Part 6 is the console plate, note that it has a step in it to allow for the longer part 1. The older part 1's were shorter and had no place for the part 4 screws. -
Illustration 6-47 in this manual file below shows the same governor as a K241 Kohler K-Series SM TP-2379 LR.pdf

Where to power an electric PTO
ineedanother replied to ineedanother's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
For those that have not seen one, I hadn't until I acquired a couple '73 Autos. This dash is not in great shape but you can see that "start" returns to "run" without power to the PTO. Counter-clockwise one step powers accessories which in my case would be lights and PTO (clutch). -

Where to power an electric PTO
ineedanother replied to ineedanother's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
I have a couple 4-position key switches so I think I'll go back in and use one of those now that there isn't a lock-out for the PTO. I'll change the dash plate to one from an Auto too so it will look original but won't be, not that most would even notice. -
This is the 36” on my Raider. It’s even quieter than the 32” on my Suburban. You can just make out the sound from the gears with my phone next to them. I hardly notice a difference when i engage the PTO when I’m sitting on the seat. IMG_2165.mov

Notice on my damaged frane that only ONE of the four mounting holes is not cracked. That tractor moved like an inchworm under power! -

@sqrlgtr I agree, I like the look of the wide deep dish rear rims. -

Took pic of 520H after I took hub caps off and I got tell ya believe I like it better with naked wheels. Wheels and tires look twice as big with them gone. -
What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Blaine replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I ordered a $10 regulator from EBay for the Raider. The mounting holes are too narrow to use the existing holes in the tower and i wanted to use the original holes and carriage bolts. The terminals on the new one stick out the back also, so it can’t be mounted flush. The band saw made quick work of making an adapter mount out of the old regulator. -
Just checked and both my 520's have this drain on them and Im almost positive neither has been apart. IDK maybe some others will get curious and check there Onan P220. I did take motor mount bolts loose and got a wrench on it but it is tight, it may not be leaking as bad as i thought I forgot about washing it and it may have just been left over oily water .

Pic above also happens a lot on these machines and is not model specific. @ri702bill great example of cracked F plate. @AHS sorry for confusion, I should have made myself clearer. When you go to stop and fills like your front end keeps a going and your butt is sitting still might be the F plate . -

The one that frequently developes cracks that like to play connect the dots. Like this sad 854 frame... Years of plowing or tilling flexing that mount until it developes fatigue cracks. Fixable, but time consuming... -

The F plate refers to the part of the frame that bolts to the transmission.
