    551 diodes'

    No “regulating” is correct -- the diodes do nothing to control the voltage passing from the stator to the battery. But “rectifying” there is indeed. As the stator turns it creates positive and negative voltage “pressure” in alternating directions in its two connections (the frequency depends on the engine’s RPM). The diodes (as check valves) permit only the “positive” voltage to go to the battery, blocking out the “negative” voltage from each connection. .

    School me on This Speedex?

    I found this old fuel cap with a blowed out gasket, and some bracketeering materials and started fabbing a little tink tink too. I love watching them flop around, and they are practical to keep rain out in the rare occasion a tractor is outdoors when it rains.
  7. Ok got me diodes all pointing in right direction, carb adjusted, sediment bowl straightened out, added an extra clutch spring and adjusted brake. Drove around barn a couple times seems to be good to go. Had every intention of a new restoration on this one but have decided to turn my attention to the 520H instead. The 520 is just begging to be straightened out and put back to work.

    School me on This Speedex?

    I had a mini competition last year with @Andy N. to see who could run out of fuel the fastest at @WHX?? plow day. His 2 cylinder aircraft fuel sipper and my 16 horse one lunger with a tiny tank were very close competition. Today, I believe I increased my capacity. I might need some longer head bolts and some spacers to get the bottom a bit higher for better gravity feed to the carb.

    Sleeve hitch lift cable info

    I added some pictures. You can see the sleeve hitch and cable tube in the first picture. The second is the manual lift arm under the tractor

    Sleeve hitch lift cable info

    Welcome to RedSquare! Can you get some photos of your current setup? All my tractors have hydraulic lift, with a guide tube that the cable runs through. My C-141 has a sleeve hitch and also has a second rock-shaft below the fender pan. The cable hooks to the rock shaft, then a short chain from the rock-shaft to the hitch. Not sure if any of that applies to a manual lift, but someone on here will definitely be able to guide you in the right direction.

    Eventfull week

    I just sent Cas a PM asking how he is doing and encouraging him to keep in touch with his Wheel Horse family.
  17. I recently got a sleeve hitch and cultivator for c120 (that is my best guess on model as original markings are gone). I didn't have a lift cable to hook up to the manual lift so I had to make my own. It was a pain to get it hooked up and adjusted right underneath the tractor. Picking up the cultivator was extremely heavy probably due to the lack of leverage where the cable hooks to the sleeve hitch. It eventually broke my cable from the weight. I feel like even if I made a cable strong enough it would still be to heavy and a pain to use. Has any one successfully made their own cable for a manual lift? If so whats the weight capacity like?

    I understand about the pictures. I can't figure out how to post them as far as the motor parts go. I would probably take 750 for it all. send me a number where I can text some pictures to you. That might be helpful.

    551 diodes'

    From what I understand, Diodes are like an electrical "check-Valve" that allows flow in one direction only. I don"t believe that there is any rectifying or actual regulating going on..

    Picked a 1/2 Rebuilt Kohler K301

    Last night I pulled the oil pan to start checking the inside out. So so clean verify oil hole facing correct direction on cam side this side of rod has a casting line so I’ll use that to keep rod and cap aligned. pulled piston. Crank has been ground and measured 1.490. So that’s good. I’ll plastigate clearance on reassembly. Crank was hard to turn even after I removed piston. I tried to checkcrank side clearance - NONE. Loosened bearings plate bolts and crank turns easy. So need to add gasket shims to get crank clearance per kohler spec. Block needs a good cleaning. I get a black finger tip when I rum inside of block. More than lack oil. I think there is still some cast iron dust from boring block. Tomorrow I’ll pull valves.
