Been working on this on and off...I keep needing parts...

 

Had to fiddle with the PTO mount...Put on the throttle cable (not pictured) and the After market Air Cleaner needed a spacer. It came with a little bracket to hold the choke lever on. The pre filter (That gets coated with oil) fit from the OEM filter. Ordered a bag to go over the filter for added cleanliness from a go cart parts place. Drove it around a little and tested the PTO, working fine. I broke the engine in for 3 hours when I got it and changed the oil, so its ready to go. Have an ez hose to put on at the next oil change. Oh and a couple of OHV filters on order. Working on exhaust next...and than rear wheel seal. 

 

Anyone have a link for the front wheel bearing? The passenger side wheel seems ready to fall off, the bearing is so bad.

I got enough (Fixing the Drive belt tension rod and pulley gave me fits) to test drive the new Predator 13HP.

It ran better than I expected, I could not tell the difference between it and the Onan , until I drove up my steep drive. 

Took me a while to get used to the treadle pedals. Put Matt's pedal's om in 2015 , but including and hour today only have 2 hours using them...Still grabbed for the steering control a few times, which I left on but doesn't do anything. Still cuts grass better than my JD. 

 

It will be more fun working on the little things and cosmetics , knowing the mechanical's seem solid.

Looking good chex.The bearings  can be had from E-bay or NAPA.They are standard 2000 pound trailer hub bearings.

      A couple of Onan questions
      By Bill D
      I picked up a low hour, (189.6) abandoned 416h yesterday.  Does anyone know what size the o-ring is that seals the carb to the air cleaner?  Mines cracked and I expected it to break in pieces when I remove it there by making it useless for sizing at the hardware store.  Also, the voltage regulator is missing.  Has anyone tried used a regulator from a Kawasaki as a replacement?  I have a couple here and thought about trying them.  Can anyone tell me if this engine has the governor spacer with the tab?  Thanks.

      416H Turns Over, No Spark, No Run
      By Rollo416H
      I'm new here, but I have years and miles of dealing with electrical issues with my 1997 416H, engine Onan P216G (I am the only owner) . Problem description: the start circuit turns the starter over fine, but no spark at the plugs or the coil sockets by spark tester.  The ignition trigger tests good by connecting a test light to the coil positive and and the ignition trigger negative lead, plenty of light flash from the test light in unison with the engine turning over. So, I conclude the ignition trigger, replaced 3/18/2021 along with the coil is good.  I have followed the "Demystification" wiring diagram in detail and there is 12V at the coil positive terminal, wiriing is solid (for now), all those damn safety switches, key switch,  and relays work too. I conclude that the coil is bad since the primary side tests 3.1 OHM and the secondary tests infinite OHMS (1. displayed on multimeter).  Two coils (Onan part# 166-0820) have NEW dates of 3/2021 and 8/2021, and yes both have the same test results mentioned. Infinite OHMs to me means the coil windings are broken. The most recent coil came from Onanparts.com and tested as mentioned above when it arrived.  Onanparts won't take anything back!  There are a lot of coils on ebay and various suppliers from China.  Maybe good, maybe bad, who can tell? And most suppliers won't accept returned electrical parts. Please help: What are good test readings for a GOOD coil (primary and secondary). Who do you recommend as a reliable supplier for a new coil? 
      Thanks for any help!

      Seat Support Repair
      By Bill D
      Hi,
       
      I have a cracked seat support on my tractor.  Does anyone have pictures of how they have repaired or beefed up this area?  I did see a thread regarding repairs but I am trying to figure out how to beef up this area without causing problems for myself when reinstalling the belt gard and other covers.  Thanks.
