I miss it here!! 😢 She's a 312-8 with about 300 hours. Plow was only used once, came with bagger and weights. Super nice shape except the right foot rest needs some paint. 😆 previous owner was replacing fuel pump and one bolt broke in the block, he tried to drill it out, but it broke the block kinda. Gonna try to clean it up, fill with JB weld, tap and send it 😆 I think she'll be 👌 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I cleaned it out and set it up with JB weld last night. It didn't really settle how I wanted it to, but it may be okay, we'll see. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get you a vacuum operated fuel pump and your in business. 👍 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The second I saw it in person, I thought, " OH this will still run somehow" 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just did my lawn for an hour with it. Great machine. So glad I picked it up. I did found out that one of the coil mounts was actually broken off of the block, too. but I lined it up and tightened down the one that was still good and she fired right up and runs awesome! I'll probably have to fix that fin one day tho. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,734 #2768 Posted August 17, 2023 I borrowed the trailer. I’m getting my big roof steel tomorrow. I figured I might as well borrow a loader tractor while I have a borrowed trailer to unload the steel from the borrowed trailer then return the borrowed tractor on the borrowed trailer then return the borrowed trailer. And that’s the way the cookie crumbles. 2 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can borrow anything anytime you want from me Kev. Just two rules. 1 You break it you fix it unless I say you don't have to fix it 'cause I want it fixed right. 2 Put it back where you found it. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
