ranger 1,750 #1 Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Using the Roper tiller the other day on the C121, I managed to break the wire cable on the 3point winch, this was my fault because, when I installed it I didn’t fit a keeper bar across the ends of the lift arm cable pulley mounting lugs. The cable came off the pulley when slack and chafed against the lug. I was going to fit a synthetic cable anyway. I’ve also had problems starting just lately, occasional misfire and lack of power. Cleaning out the gas tank I managed to break the grommet for the gas tap, new one ordered. I then thought, I’ll try the new “Chinese” carburettor while I’m at it. Fitting a priming bulb in the line drawing fuel from a can, the engine fired up immediately, idled and throttled up and down without missing a beat. How long it will last, who knows? The original carb will be reconditioned, the play in the throttle shaft is virtually nonexistent. Anyway, here are the photos of the 3point linkage kit before refitting to the tractor. A couple of photos show how the hydraulic tank etc, would have been fitted, this before deciding upon the “Winch” route.
