privateer 1 #1 Posted July 28, 2010 Hi everyone, Great site here with tons of knowledgeable info! In the spring I picked up a 656 in great condition. Shes all original and was well taken care of. The only thing wrong is the seat cushion is missing. I kinda like the carpet I'm sitting on. Came with a single stage thrower and the flag. Will tackle that project come winter. She was sitting in a barn for many years. With all your help with the techy HH60, I tore apart the carb, gave her a new battery, took off the flywheel, cleaned and reset the points, gave her some new belts and sharpened the blades. She started right up and cuts like a champ just like it did 44 years ago. Starts up immediately and runs great with no smoke! Got the bug now! Getting ready to pick up another WH from a friend that said just get it off my property and all the attachments that I have with it. Don't know the model yet but I'll keep ya all posted. I'm excited with the new find. The arsenal grows. Thanks for looking, Rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JimD 3,345 #6 Posted July 28, 2010 you found yourself a very well kept 656 there. Nice original condition. I'm looking forward to your new addition pic also. Almost forgot, :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #8 Posted July 28, 2010 :D If you treat a techy right, it'll treat you right. I always recommend a fuel filter, and a shoutoff valve. Run it out of gas for storage, and you should have no problems. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

privateer 1 #12 Posted July 31, 2010 I just saw my new to me tractor today given to me by a friend. Need to borrow a friends trailer one of these days. A C-165 black hood. Came with wheel weights, plow blade, 48" deck and a snow thrower. With a little help from my redsquare friends and some tlc, she'll be up and running for sure. Anyone got the specs on the trans and engine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
