C-101plowerpower

no idea what to use it for yet, there's no keyway in the crank to fix a pulley to it so yeah. not sure

had annother play with it tonight, and i have to say this is the best starting engine i have hand down. all i have to do is turn it over once and give it a yank on the rope and away she goes

no cone of shame? anyway hope it heals soon

i did say timing didn't i?

is the timing OK?

is the pressure relieve set right?

got another run, this time with a muffler

it runs still a bit rough but it runs now, where do i add fresh oil?

I have the same on the bonnet of my Horse, bodywork guy said it was because the humidity, cant remember if it was to high or to low, i think it was too high

It does, poured some petrol down ita throat and it started first pull

Bought annother briggs today, annother military one i think looking at the olive drab that's on it. Anyway here's some pics

yep, you're right, the d250 is basically the same as a gutbrod 2500, just a different colour and decals

what type is the original carb? guessing its a bing? might have a look thru my carb stockpile

whohoow snow, wn donuts?

over here they do tractorpulling with those too

Thanks chaps

where are the picks mark? they don't seem to have loaded

alain i have to be honest and say i've never had a hydro on the workbench and don't know all there is to know about them, what i do know is that the pulling comunity prefer the geared trannys for shear pulling power. anyway, imma go shut up now and do some research on the subject

yep, as long as the hydro is in good condition it wont matter. i think the hydro's give the ghost when not properly maintained before the abused geared trannys. a good way to test the hydro is putting it up against something solid that wont move and try to push it, do try this when the trans is nice and warm from driving it around for a while. if the wheels dont move while doing this walk away. on the geared ones just listen for weird noises and see if it shifts nice and easy, cant really go wrong with the geared ones, parts aren't as hard to get as the hydro parts i think

yes that's why i said any unidrive would do, thinking hydro's were also called unidrives. since lots of the lawn tractors had peerles transmissions. but then again i think there were one or two vertical shaft tractors with a stronger trans than the others

hm, i thought the hydro's were called unidrive's too, anyway, i'd go for a geared trans for plowing. 4 or 8 speed will work

the wheel horse made geared transmissions and the hydrostatic transmissions were both called unidrives.

unidrive is mechanical and hydro. it's the name wheel horse gave their transmissions

any wheel horse with a unidrive will do for plowing

adgecutler is trying to join here too, i believe his account is still validating
