Tuneup

Never liked the clutch pedal rattle on the restored C-125 so pulled the side cover and checked the 7451 pulley. Dry bearing and it can't be packed - I tried. eBay is my friend again. Took a look at the 48" stripped deck. I've ignored it all week.

This was a 90 520H I bought without the Onan, and butchered wiring. I tossed the magnum on there along with some tin. I've driven it around a bit,. 

I think it's going to be a keeper.  There is no wiring on the tractor as yet, I've been jumping the starter lug, runs great and hydro is strong. Added a motion

pedal, an electric PTO clutch today.  Planning to work it through the summer and blow it apart for paint next winter.

520’s are available without the onan? If I could find one, I’d buy it and build a loader on it.

Hey Dave, The guy I bought it from put the onan on an argo.  It was a $200 parts tractor, I've been using the deck from it for the last couple years.

Haha me 2! You know idk I just loved the idea of a beefed up trail bomber and this is what my brain thought of. So I'm sure what happens with it will be alot of "how the heck did that get there or your stuck where!?" Type stuff. This is what happens when it snows and I'm stuck inside to long :laughing-rolling: :orcs-cheers:

Well I’m certainly looking forward to seeing some photos of it “doing it’s thing”.

When you get back from the future, be sure to post some pics of what WHs are doing in the next century, I'd like to know what to expect. :lol::D

Well just so happens I manged to record quantum fluctuations in some of the smoke particle quarks. Apparently they are quantum linked with some of their counterparts in the future, by comparing the current fluctuations af apparently non linked quarks, and linked quarks, I managed to simulate a view of the Dig Dug of the future!

My quantum modeling is obviously off a little ..D series i guess must bethe software default..but you get the idea!

Go figure..they really havent changed, just cost a lot more!

Now the big question is...would that future exist if I HADNT measured thise fluctuations?????

Good to hear that our hobby is safe, if a bit more costly.

Are you acquainted with Pascal's Wager?

Thats a Bit more on the philosophical side, but it IS one bet too many people try to just hedge.

As applied to Wheel Horses, im glad I measured the quantum fluctuations, and will continue to work on Dug!

Now you have me wishing I had better instrumentation--I feel so inadequate! Are there plans to equip Dug as a tartis?

Tuneup

Installed a new sink at the boys' house yesterday and it's a Kohler so there is that. Finally got that carbonate wheel from HF and took the 48" out of the shed for paint removal. Got the top done in about 20 minutes but, man, the racket! Decided to give the neighbors a break and put it all away. What else to do today....
