Sparky-(Admin) 21,315 #3 Posted February 16, 2023 Haven’t tinkered with any of mine lately. But I do have a C-105 that isn’t charging so that’s kinda next on my to-do list. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Achto 27,565 #4 Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) My C145 snow mover is the only one that is not still in hibernation. Had to do a few things to it over the winter. Battery, drive belt. Edited February 16, 2023 by Achto 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,432 #5 Posted February 16, 2023 We've been finishing up the restoration on my 1975 C160 Automatic. Wiring harness and fuel tank, hoses left to install. After that we will give it a go and see what happens. When the plow and chains are on that tractor and it's ready to move snow, Trina's gonna decide which one of HERS she wants to bring in next. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 12,007 #7 Posted February 20, 2023 I have several that need servicing. But I'm still working on a friends 312-8, and it was in awful shape. It had electrical gremlins everywhere, so I just made a whole new wiring harness. Almost got the lift cable for the rear hitch worked out. Just another day or two... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Easton Rich 255 #8 Posted February 20, 2023 Wow. Yeah that's a lot more than could do at the moment. Also I'm a beginner I'd be able to but it would take awhile for me to learn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,610 #19 Posted February 21, 2023 @Sparky referring to your C-105 charging issue , made up a heavier 10 ga alligator wire clip set up, jump directly from battery cable / ground bolt spot , to related electrical connections / ground bolt ons . do not count on original ground connections , rust / rot / paint / makes the problems . also use , mechanical , electrical bolt on lugs . that testing and wiring upgrade has eliminated my funky wire issues , pete 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
