Salvinni 9 #1 Posted May 11, 2014 Bought my tractor back in 2000, its a 96 or 7 I believe. Came w/ plow, 62 in deck and wagon. When I got it, I was stoked about its beauty. Wax this rig twice a yr. Didn't know there was a community on wheelhorses, but im glad im part of it. Got the surge problem, getting ready to soak carb w/out kit.

Salvinni 9 #11 Posted May 24, 2014 Well, I got wheelhorse back together, had to back track cpl times, but I got it fired up. Ran like a champ till I noticed oil seaping out air filter. Fixed that and now it is running awesome. First time I had to work on it , and it has brung me closer to the tractor. So I cleaned it up and here are a few pics as promised.
