Docwheelhorse 2,660 #1 Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) Hello All, So you guys saw the post from @Sparky about me giving him the clean B80 to take care of. Well in some interesting turn he had an 876 that he bought for the plow, iron weights and rear bracket. He didnt like the tractor in the end and offered it to me first. He ended giving it to me and besides needing a new throttle cable the thing runs great, starts great, looks Ok with its paint brush repaint and has ZERO leaks--amazing for a hydro filled with ATF (thin oil!!) . I dunno what my plan is but I have 3 or 4 1960s vintage 32" (I think...) snow throwers and I may throw one on. I had a Commando with a 32 way back and it did a decent job surprisingly enough Thanks Tony 20230108_085158.mp4 20230108_085043.mp4 20230108_085158.mp4 Edited January 8, 2023 by Docwheelhorse 4 5 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn’t “not like” it … more like I’m tractor heavy and need to let like 3 go.

No free rides... but some are quieter than others... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
