squonk 41,150 #4 Posted May 24, 2022 About what I thought. Trying to figure out much less gas I use mowing with the 857 over the C-160. Looks to be a quart to a quart and a half. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,317 #9 Posted May 24, 2022 I got 5 horses and am picking up one from you at the BS , would hook up the horses to a wagon to come for a visit but don't think I could survive the trip up the interstate and you probably make me sleep in the coop with Waldo junior. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Engine test stand. The million dollar tank support was built out of stuff collecting dust in a basement after a new boiler installation. They told me to "get rid of it!

Yea, the $1.10 your saving in gas should easily pay for the time and materials you got in that mount. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
