I am helping a guy fix the loader. Bill, ( my friend w/ the GT550) bought it yesterday. The loader is quirky! I told him to check the hydro fluid. Once you pull the PTO switch; 90% of the time the loader will do nothing. The other 10% of the time it will lift the bucket. The old WH dealer has been around the GT550, and he says the GT550 needs a pump. (And they don’t make the pump anymore). So, what do you guys use for a pump? Any questions, please ask.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
8ntruck replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I noticed a small amount of smoke coming from under the hood of Morgan, the 14-8. Closer inspection revealed the smoke was coming from the front of the engine around the exhaust port where there was an accumulation of oily dirt. Today, I gave the engine a bath with spray on Gunk and the garden hose. Looks much better, though it didn't want to start. Probably got the points damp. I try it tomorrow and see what happens. This happened last time I cleaned the engine - no start right after cleaning, but ran fine the next day. -
I had to mow with an 18" plug in electric.

Be careful for what you wish for. Many appliances, including Central A/C's have been cost reduced so much that their life expectancy is lower that the unit it replaces. -
I will say this for JD'ers Every show I've been to they are the friendliest. The IH guys show up late and move your stuff when you are not there because they want the spot you have. The green guys say park here with us. The AC guys at our steam show are accommodating as well.

That's only because I was busy!!! All the tractors are at the steam pageant. Had to mow it all with the 20" pusher!!!!!!

I installed a soft start module on my 2 ton carrier unit last year for a couple reasons, one being to hopefully extend its life a bit since it is original to the house that was built in '89. I keep it clean and hope I'm not jinxing myself since it's always been a reliable unit. -

My experience is that most of the members appreciate quality garden tractors from many different vendors. Personally, the JD 110H3 and the 318H3 models have always impressed me. I wound up converging on WH for price, serviceability, and, in no small part, for this forum’s community.

This sulky has been around longer than we think. The manual has a 1958 copyright date.

what year/month is my 414-8
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to baseballbat's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
The Julian build date would have been in the box below the model and serial numbers but faded long ago. The 20139 tractor serial is the earliest recorded for this model so far so most likely built in late 1986. The Kohler serial will tell when they manufactured it but most 1986 production landed on 1987 model tractors. -

Installed receiver hitch and front wheel weights on C160 today. -
Weights on all 4 corners plus loaded tires and new hitch, should be ready

This view smacked me in the face wheeling the creeper out from an oil change in the driveway. Not a horrible rear end view.
