I purchased my 314-8 new in February of 1996. It's been a great tractor. But a few years ago I had landscaping done and contracted for lawn service. So the tractor has been sitting in the garage for a few years. Bought a new battery. It cranks hard, but won't fire. Probably needs the fuel lines or carburetor cleaned. It also needs the clutch shock replaced. I have the new shock and belt. Just haven't gotten around to replacing them. Deck is in excellent shape with new spindles before I parked it. Comes with the nice pull behind spreader that has only been used twice.
Thanks for you consideration.

The belt on my Wheel Horse 314-8 mower deck (05-37SC01) appears to be contacting the deck bracket between the spindle pulleys. I am a novice when it comes to Wheel Horse maintenance (at best), but this does not seem correct.
I recently inherited this Wheel Horse, so I do not know the maintenance history. Unfortunately, the mechanic who previously worked on it was a no-show for a scheduled maintenance visit.
Any advice on how to address this? Thanks in advance... this seems like a great forum and I'm looking forward to spending time here!

I just got a 1993 toro wheel horse 314-8 today for free. It seems to be in good working order hasn't ran since last summer. Came with a mower deck, rear wheel weights, and a snow plow. My plan is to take the transaxle out if i don't like the motor and put the trans in my 520-h hopefully it works. Is there any pointers you guys could give me i would really appreciate it... thanks.

My 1998 314-8 is not starting after stalling while engaging the PTO clutch for snowblowing. It started easily and warmed up well. The stalling didn't seem like a big deal but then it just refused to start. Lights light up and I hear a click. Wondering if this sounds like a PTO clutch safety switch issue and if that should be my first place to look?
Fuses look fine.
A few weeks ago when I installed the snowblower it stalled in the same manner. I took off the snowblower belt and put it back on and it started and ran well. No such luck this time. Maybe the switch was on the fritz? Had no issues all summer mowing.
If it is a battery or starter issue it would seem like quite a coincidence that it happened right when I tried to blow snow. Like I said, it started like a champ.
Seat switches have been non-functioning since I got the machine. I assume the previous owner bypassed them.
Any thoughts appreciated. I am not at all familiar with the PTO switch or the wiring.
