C160 RPM drops when hydro engages?
ineedanother replied to Gary S Minnesota's topic in Implements and Attachments
Sounds like it could be an issue with the governor to me. I could be missing something here though. -

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Bar Nuthin replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Might have went through a couple tanks of gas trying to take in the Portland Tri-State show. More pictures in a separate post. -

C160 RPM drops when hydro engages?
Gary S Minnesota replied to Gary S Minnesota's topic in Implements and Attachments
So, finally got the C160 out of the garage and experimented a bit with the hydro. As I stated earlier the engine RPM drops significantly when the hydro is tasked with lifting the two stage blower. I have noted that I can increase throttle again with the blower in the upper position and the RPM comes right up. It almost seems like the throttle setting position is reduced as the hydro is lifting and the throttle setting is increased when the blower is fully lowered. It does not seem likely that the throttle and hydro would be interconnected?? -

Penetrol (Before and After)

I used penetrol on a C101 I did a few months ago, I was very impressed with the result. What was left of the original paint was to the point it was turning loose in little chips, so I ended up using steel wool to apply the penetrol and smooth it out some, it was pretty messy -

How much would you want for them?

Is yours also cable steer? Years back VinsRJ and his brother Matt found a cable steer RJ35 at the Zagray show. Think they paid something like $250 for it. Vin made a fiberglass hood like the prototype was and did an incredible job restoring it, pretty sure he did a Youtube video of it.

Mower Deck for 1987-1989 414-8
bradleydavidgood replied to bradleydavidgood's topic in Implements and Attachments
I don't know what the baffle is but I don't think I have those circles around the blades like in your pic. I do need to clean the bottom of the deck. I'll have to do that in the next few days. I'll make a video. I was mowing wet grass and very tall dry grass. -

bradleydavidgood replied to bradleydavidgood's topic in Implements and Attachments
That's awesome! Thank you! Now for bonus points who can tell me if the tractor is 1988 or 1989 without any S/N or ID? Or confirm that there was no visible differences those years. -

Yea I was away for 3 weeks and the grass was high and the old muffler blew right off the side and dropped on the lawn. I had the gun range ear muffs on so it didn't bother me and was determined to finish the yard. I got the one side done then went down to the other side near the intolerant type neighbor who by the way runs loud equipment very often especially one of those very loud backpack blowers and has to get every leaf several times a week, powerwash everything, mow constantly, etc. Well when I turned around the wife was on the deck just looking at me and the man was almost jumping up and down like "no stop that!". I pointed to the little patch I had left as to say "Just this little bit more", and he jumped up and down even more. It was really funny but I restrained myself from laughing and drove the tractor away, parked it in it's spot and turned it off. So yea they loved it. If I saw/heard my neighbor mowing with no muffler, I'd take my mower over and finish it for him. -
C120 evolve to.. C140 Custom

Here is how the chute was trimmed. I can say that it discharged cuttings well running on a c-160 but I never tested it on anything like @sgtsampay -

Getting a ¼ or ½ wave antenna perfectly tuned makes a huge difference in signal clarity. -

What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
MainelyWheelhorse replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Again I mowed the Fire Stationwith the 312, ran it out of gas 3/4 of the way through. Then had to walk back to get my ATV and a gas can. It's just far enough away to not want to drag a significantly full gas can that far. I finished up the Fire Station, and took my tractor home, then got the ATV, and saw a co worker who saw me go there with the tractor but not back Then he got the short version of events. - Yesterday

CB Radio antenna help needed.

I just remembered another thing. An electrical engineer friend helped me set up my antenna, using a standing wave meter. -
What did you do today?
MainelyWheelhorse replied to Mickwhitt's topic in non tractor related discussion
I mowed and weed wacked the Fire Station again and helped one of my brothers move. -
Something doesn't make sense to me. Is the battery fully charged? You can also verify grounds by checking for continuity between those ground contacts and the negative terminal on the battery.
