Came home from work yesterday afternoon to this Older one was cleaning a wheel from his C-121, youngest cleaning a rear wheel from his lawn ranger! looks like I'm painting this coming week...

kohler manuals say to rest the flat on the bottom of the plug on the engine block. dont thread it in at all....

Wheel Horse was well represented at Olde Tyme Days this year. Here's Buckrancher with his horses... As I drove my Commando 8 around the grounds, I saw lots of Horses...and of course lots of Deere. Too many little and big tractors and oddballs to mention, so just look through the pics and enjoy... Mr. & Mrs. Rancher enjoying the day... Zeek checking on the burgers, brats and dogs... and of course the wine...we all enjoyed the wine. It was a great day.

That's what I tell the woman of the house!!! I made her finish with the push.

Outhouses in the back yard are great for growing pumpkins and watermelons!

At least five dollars, where should I send the check? LOL

It may just need new brushes. There are lots of videos on U-tube on how to do it and get it back together. There is an auto electric shop in my town and I often let him rebuild them for me which usually involves replacing the brushes and lubricating the bearings or bushings and the starter gear. He is very reasonable.

A bunch of the herd got out this weekend for a tractor show in Mt. Gilead Ohio. It is a small show but a good one. Had a few good garden tractor collections. My buddy Packrat and I had 14 Wheel Horse's all lined up for their viewing pleasure! How are they looking fella's??? Click on the pics and they will get bigger. KJ

Yeah boy, I want one of those for my ratrod Suburban project.

Spent some time in the woods this weekend. Putting the Horse to some hard work, then I got to join in on the "fun". Here's the photo op shot - Then I got busy tilling a new trench. The ground is actually fairly soft, sandy and loamy, but there's so many roots. Here's a video of me tilling. The belt jumped the first time I shut the tractor down, then I didn't get it on right and it was rubbing so I had to shut her down again to adjust. As you can see, the tractor may look good but it's still a worker. I do cringe a little bit because fo the abuse. I ended up tilling 450 feet of trench. After runing the tiler up and down the path twice I grabbed the shovel and started digging the loose dirt out of the trench. Ended up taking me 6 hours with breaks included. Here's a video of the final product. Next week I go chop trees down. Too bad the Wheel Horse can't help me with that. :)

My 520 pulls the wheels very well with the suit case weights on the back, but people are always amazed when I do it, so at the tractor games this weekend I had people ask me to do one or two for pics, my son took this one, it drags the weights about 8/10 feet on the ground or till the engine runs out of fuel tilted like that.

Unless you find a NOS harness on eBay or elsewhere, your only choice is to find a good used one, or make one yourself. I have made 2 new harnesses for my B-100's. The only difference is and extra circuit for the lights on the C-120. Other than the heavy gauge wires for the starter circuit, everything else is 16 or 14 gauge automotive wire. Five pin connector for the ignition switch is still available. All other connectors are also fairly common.

follow this link download the Demystification guide the file is large and will take a few minutes to download I did not see your exact model listed but the electrical systems should be very close to your wiring Chuck

One thing I have found is that leaky seals generally makes for easy hub removal.

I removed a hub yesterday using my home-made hub puller, and it was so tight that it took over an hour to get it off. However, after getting it off, it went right back on very smoothly. If you can't get the hub back on without beating on it, you have some other problem. As has been said, be sure that the axle is rust-free, clean and no burrs on the key slot. Be sure to clean the inside of the hub as well. Try sliding it on without the woodruff key. Does it go on easily? If so, the problem may be the key. Once you get the hub to slide on the axle and key easily, coat the axle with a good anti-seize compound before attaching the hub with the set screw.

Thanks for posting my pics Karl. Whenever I start talking tractors to my wife she just starts to get that glazed over look and says that she cant keep track of em by numbers...312-8...701...B-100...C-120....GT1142, just to name a few. So she has been naming em and expecting me to remember which one is called what so she can follow along when I start rambling on about one of them. Well Sunday afternoon she was staring out the kitchen door at the D-160 and turned to me and said that one is "BIG ED". So thats that...its got a name. Mike...owner of BIG ED...Charlie Horse...Lucy....Lucky...you get the idea.
