Bolens husky. pictures from it in my pics.. or somewhere mom

Yes, its working again, my Belts were too loose/seized up, and i put metalwire to the carburetors more gas-part to give more gas. now its working "fine". also i welded the pulley to a better place so the belt wont hit the support plate of it anymore .

Thanks, will do that ! then i give you more info. (the carb is lookin weird, someone has been shut off the other "straight" airhole, now it must take all air trough the airfilter that looks just like normal brigsstratton-push behind-lawn mover. but it is just a part of an old mattress stuff.. not seems like bought from the shop.

Well, the oil is not "right" but heard that should work.. or not.. its something 30 W40 or similar. . ."motox" brand. so should be able to work at winter too.. ? I will blown my movers motor, and then i pray new one from the net.. or then i replace it with some old tiny toyotas motor ... Thanks, thats it. i guess..(still working...)

:-) no, there are no grass "in" the motor... I heard that it is common for old engines, they are a bit worn out.. and it is 8 hp motor... pics in my gallery, same machine that in the pics, if that helps.

I wondered, when i lawn my mover bolens husky, that it heated like oven. then i looked, there were a bit short of oil, but not under minimum. Now i wonder if it is broken in somehow, because it was so lazy when i lawn with it. Always when the blades took some grass more (it was only about 10-15 cm grown) the engine almost stand still ! Not happend when i lawn with my push behind lawn mover(with that the lawn can be grown like over 1 meter and it still moves well), only with the bolens ride on! is the motor too tiny for that kind of job? i ride with 2gear, bce the 1 gear were 2slow to lawn with ride on! I guess the blades could roll a bit faster than now, so they would lawn better ? (must place some bigger pulley where from the blades get their moving...and also got to install some 12V blowers to suck the hot air away..) can i look somehow the motor, if it is broken or not? (without tearing it apart)(must have new to me, bigger motor to my husky..)

I we got this, what is this, and is this "own made" or from the store ? there are no "made by" text at all at the machine.

Did you really put an earthmotor to a moving machine ? Nice one! now you have missing a big alternator, or generator for housepower... im thinking to place an cars old electric startermotor to my husky, to go back and forward easier than now with the huskys own gearbox. first i place muchpowered alternator from a car to the tractor with an belt..

Putted some pics from My Husky to the gallery... Looked the OldBuzzards files, Thanks! Now i need the snowchains too!

I bought this machine from second hand shop in internet. it cost me 80 €. working, but the engine has been chanced to briggs&stratton 8 hp, and the lawnblades were worn out and cuttened in pieces, also the 3 blade-tables was totally broken. But my father in law fixed them, so now my husky is working fine. Also i put better choke-handle to it, because it were not working, and the footgrill was too tiny and far away for my 6&7 years old boys to ride, so i make some bigger and longer footgrills to it. Now im looking for parts to this machine, Brake is barely working, also (because of that) the gearbox is quite rattling,when changing a gear when brakes are not totally bottomed.. Ou, i also put hand-handle for the brake, because its easier to the boys to work with. Then i must change the oil to the rear of the bolens. the tires are full-rubber in back, and normal air filled tires in front. Has anyone any guide to this model ? how i do the things right ? I can do them by my mind, but if there are some special what not to do, or what must do first, i dont know about things like that. And there are the accumulator under the seat, earlier owner has changed the tiny accu to normal car size accu, now it starts, no matter what! Thanks! i give some pics when i got my camera better... edited some odd words better..
