310-8!

Recommended Posts

AHS

I’ve been waiting for this…. For about a year! For $175!! It’s got 4 inflated tires… bonus!! A M10 and a unripped seat and a muffler with NO holes and wheel weights!! With smaller tires (I think) and 1” axles. It’s got water in the gas tank… the gas cap with the gauge is missing the clear peice. The wheel weights alone would cost $150 easy!😀 the pics are probably upside down, you’ll just have to stand on your head.😀

You know what the deal is here…. I’m gonna swap out that M10 (running of course) for a M16 and put the snowblower on it!  😀💪

My 310-8 was my first tractor 25 years ago. Still the most dependable hardest working machine I have. Mine is a 1987 (looks like yours is 87 or newer), and still runs strong! Of course I dressed it up a little...DSC00686.jpg.aa04a01e6a39e0acb585057e3627cdb8.jpg

@kpinnc my Fathers has got a 79 C101 (10hp Kohler) with a 36” rear discharge mower, plow and a moldboard plow… he’s still got it… it’s tougher than nails!!

Maybe it's the small exhaust valve, but there is something about the 10hp Kohlers. They run so quiet for a big block, and the hp rating just doesn't do them justice. I've tilled hard red clay with mine- and it soldiered through it like a Balboa flick (I could hear the music), and even slung a 48 inch deck under it in an emergency. It complained a little with the 48, but it pushed on through!

 

My neighbor had one of those big box 20+ hp riding mowers, and he was always jealous of my 310-8. He referred to it as "a MOWchine" regularly. I would always tell him not to feel bad, because lots of us had ride on toys when we were kids too! At least he didn't have to pedal it...

The 310 and 308 both came with 22 X 7.50 rear tires and 15 X 6.00 front tires. With the 400 series you got 23 X 9.50 rears and 16 X 6.50 front tires.

Good information. Hey, what did the C-series 1 1/8” axle have 4 pinion or 8 pinion? The C-series is my pride at heart… Probably cause I grew up on a C-101!

I believe the C series with 1-1/8” axles are all 8 pinion. I have a herd of horses and I have a 1980’s 310-8 with a Kohler Mag 10. 1000 hours and my go to. I’d fix her up and run her. Save the M16 for another build, just my HO.

I know! That’s what I have been thinking about overnight!

For my 310-8 what’s the part number for the gas tank shut off valve and the grommet? The tank is empty, and the gas line is hard and cracked! I wanna start all new!

According to my 1988 300/400 Series Parts & Service Manual the parts that fit your 310:


Shut off valve number is: 104048

fuel line from the petcock is: 110894

Corbin clamp number is: 108898

Rubber bushing, as the manual calls it : 104047
Good thing I re-read before I posted because I almost called it a feces off valve. Darn phones.

I’ll attach this in case I am referring the the wrong fuel system. Let me know if it is legible. If not I can email you a better resolution photo if you’d like.

I’ve seen a 312 with 22x7.50, and I think 1” axles. It was wierd the way Toro did it with the 300 and 400 series vs the way WH did it with the B series and C series. 
 

I think the C series was equal to the the 400 series.. with the 8 pinion rear end and the 8” front rims.  
 

Ive got a B80; and it seems just like a C series. 76 B80 with the 8 speed and the 1 1/8 axles (did that have the 4 pinion or the 8 pinion?) , and the 8” front rims.  It feels like a C series. I’m like “can I make this 8hp Kohler ‘work’”? 

 

HAHA.. it’s a Kohler… I don’t think I can “make it ‘work’” with a plow!

As with many WH over the years, the B-80 broke the naming scheme rules. You're correct, it's a C series for arguments sake. The tranny is an 8 pinion. 

 

Later models were C-81, C-85, etc.
