Don’t get over whelmed. Stay focused on the job at hand. This will pay you back tenfold.
-
I hope you are enjoying the site. Unbelievable amount of info here for wheel horse tractors. I always said this is a one stop shop of info. I hope you get it running well.
-
Trust me, I understand. See below for what I started with... Alot of stuff got replaced...
-
Almost never a good idea. ... but why do you want one? A garden tractor engine is made to operate at a certain preset RPM. That way the governor can do its job and bring the engine up or down to that preset RPM during operation. More importantly, these are air cooled and splash lubed engines. It's never meant to be at idle except for a few seconds just before shutdown. By introducing a foot throttle you'd eliminate the possibility of keeping the preset along with adding a piece of equipment to the foot area that now gets in the way.

That's it! "from page 3-13 of the tractor service manual" I found that manual -- Thank you so much!!! -
Just WOW. I love the 61 steekers. My 702 steeker, not so much. I wish it wasn’t so abused. I’d have to replace nearly everything to get it anywhere close to looking like your 701. Fantastic job.

Got the motor swapped over from kRusty, battery in, starter cranks, fresh oil and fuel lines, chased the threads for points and cover. Just need to figure out how to mount my classy white bass boat seat without the crazy mount they used on kRusty and Whitey will be on the truck. I’ll see ya’ll in the morning. -
Looks great!
-
How hard would it be to do a foot throttle?

Hi- The lever (#37) extends up into a slot in frame. Lever is not seized. It moves freely. But, it extends up into a slot in frame, so it is not able to move forward off the stud. -

Pull the heads off and look for scored cylinders. If the cylinders look good check the valves. My money's on it needing the valves adjusted. Unfortunately they have to be removed and the stems ground. I haven't had the best success doing that in the past.
-
The gray GT series used a combo PTO switch as well, just in case anyone's interested.
-
Google Hydro Pedal #1, Hydro Pedal #2, Hydro Pedal #3 if you'd like to see the threads on my builds. #2 and #3 are my favorites. #1 needs more work on auto return mechanism. Copy them at your own risk. I don't make them due to the liability issues. #2 is totally bolt on.

So to update this, after doing the specified tests he bought a cheap magneto, set the air gap, did not bolt the right side of the magneto down properly, cranked it, caught said magneto with the flywheel, and broke the engine end plate. Tractor is currently at the local Toro dealer.
-
Yeah, that's kinda the same basic idea. Like I would buy an Explorer all the way out to 2019, because it's basically an 07 Edge with EPAS and a longer wheel base.
-
Thank you sir! It's getting there!
-
Well I was specifically referring to the models we have now. My Tacoma is a 2011, and they were the same until 2015, and the Tundra was good until 2017.
