You got more done. Fill the cylinder & tranny full of ATF & shove it out with the others. We can work on it in our copious free time. All I have on my plate is paint a raffle tractor, paint a 701, & get a 953 put back together by JUNE 9TH . Holy crap ! the first show is coming up fast. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,815 #55 Posted March 23 (edited) OK time for an update here. Since the Amigo runs & drives good. The 701 is done. (Waiting for decent weather for glamor shots). The shop is empty! Wow been a long time since ther was no tractor in disarray in. So in comes this A-90. Thoughts were to finnish busting it down... the motor is froze now... and get parts in a shed. After starting to get things freed up got to thinking how cool a little tractor this is and everthing is there. Get it running and driving since @Achto is too chicken 💩 to do it with a freebie. We're talkin mechanical only. Not quite frame off but close. All the original hardware was in a mason jar and now soakin in PB. Going to try and reuse it. Maybe paint rims. Top priority is a roller as this might turn into a molasses. Then pull the motor see what shakes. Yes that is the correct factory mule drive! I didn't go back to see if the year was corrected but 1974. Edited March 24 by WHX?? 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,815 #60 Posted March 25 (edited) Transmission back in. Lots of stuff going on here for a one year only tractor. Was kinda fun figuring out how things go when one doesn't take it apart. Separate brake & clutch pedal froze solid but I won. Old skool dealer??? Edited March 25 by WHX?? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #61 Posted May 2 Starting to look like a tractor again. Motor cleaned up and going back on. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,815 #62 Posted May 26 (edited) Wiring all done and it runs! Smokes but it is what it is. Makes a bit of clattering and knocking noise too but again. No wonder they call these flo leak jet carbs. I guess for 20 clams in the jungle wadda ya want. Briggs buddy says ther are two types of these carbs... ones that don't leak and ones that are gonna. Gas seems abit yellow so wondering if my tank cleaning wasn't sufficient. 20240525_172048_001.mp4 Edited May 26 by WHX?? 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,815 #66 Posted May 31 (edited) Calling this one done. Seat yet and some cobbling on the fender pan. Dan is gonna see about getting me two pieces of flat steel to sammich the rotted out area. Less someone's got a better idea. I got other pans but patina is way off. Passenger side rear only holds air for a day so need to tube that. Amazing the others hold air. Electric clutch is toast... open field winding... so just for show n tell. @Mike'sHorseBarn if you don't need that seat I have on the 1267 throw it on Kev's truck at the BS. It would be a good seat for her. If you need it tho no big deal. I have others I can cobble on. Edited May 31 by WHX?? 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
