CasualObserver 3,408 #2 Posted April 25, 2019 Very nice, thanks for sharing. That's one of my bucket-list must own tractors. Just because it's ugly and crude. What's the front intermediate pulley for? Snowblower? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
"Manic-Mechanic" 1,194 #3 Posted April 25, 2019 (deck & snow blower).been having carburetor issues. I rebuilt this one and changed out the type of metering screw normally found in one of these "aftermarket" kits. Plus retro-changed the fuel line to metal better air integrity I think. Now it's set until the starter rope breaks again or something.......I used an older, thick starter rope this time, the one sold by briggs is for smaller engines and breaks.

"Manic-Mechanic" 1,194 #10 Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) I might come over tomorrow. The rain should give us a little break anyway. Likewise. I went over but the wind killed it early on, still checked all the venders and picked up some chicken corn soup! Edited April 27, 2019 by oldman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
