Bill D 1,926 #5718 Posted July 11, 2020 Buy Ray's M18 and put that on it. Thinking coil. Any chance a lifter could be sticking and holding a valve open. I saw that you cleaned the valve stems up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnymag3 2,520 #5719 Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) I didnt take much off, there was no coking....Im going to put a K12 on it if it doesnt behave soon.Im going to see Ray this week, getting the M18 for the shelf. Maybe redo my Eddie 418 engine. has almost 950 Hrs. on it now.Still runs perfect.do you need me to get the wheel ? surcharge, delivery/overtheroadcost/ seems ok to me...

Also i never listed what i paid. I don't know if i paid to much or not but i bought it for 1100. Again its an 07 60th edition with 42RD deck and 130 hours. Good price? you did more than OK $1100 for a 300 series Wheel Horse with 130 hours is a heckuva buy it's close to impossible to find a 300-500 series Wheel Horse with around 100 hours - at any price Edited July 11, 2020 by tom2p 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
