Hello,
I have been reading this forum for a year or so. I got a B-100 71-10K801 about 2 years back from my dad. I have been spending nights after work repairing it with my kids. Just a small list of what we've done so far. Please keep in mind this is a long term project. I plan to use this GREAT TRACTOR all year round. So once we finish it I will be adding a few add-ons. IE tiller, snow blower and a blade. It was kept outside for a few years. So I had to remove the fin covers and clean out the fun stuff left behind from our furry friends. (Had the kids do this part). I had to remove the mod job for the lights. I will be replacing the wiring and lights later. I had to replace the stop pin. The threads were smashed. (On order) I replaced the battery added a fuse holder. Replaced the oil in the engine and transmission/trans axial. Greased the four points. Replaced air filter and spark plug. Replaced the gas line and filter. Had to move over a pin the wire that feeds 12V to the ignition coil. For some reason it was hooked to the accessory of the key switch. So it was only getting 12V to the coil when it was in run not start. Now it gets 12V in start and run mode. If this is wrong please let me know. Still need to find a steering wheel and tires or tubes. Not all tires are bad, but they all go flat after a few weeks. (One in a day). I have downloaded a bunch of pdf's from this site and what a great help. This is my first tractor. It did come with a mowing deck. I will post pictures as soon as I can. Next year I would like to rebuild the engine and maybe paint the tractor.
