slf-uk 914 #26 Posted May 8, 2015 Great progress Tom. I have just used my spare Wheelhorse Ammeter on my Bolens G10 Iain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #27 Posted May 8, 2015 Thanks guys. I am struggling in regards the ignition plug and ammeter but I'm hoping I can overcome these. Push comes to shove I will order a brand new toro ammeter and just crimp connectors for the ignition switch. I am hoping to get another order from a guy in America in the coming months with some wheel horse parts so I may get him to send over some ignition plugs and the terminals that fit inside them. I can then cut the connectors off and fit an ignition switch.. Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #28 Posted May 10, 2015 Small update: I have ordered 90% of the parts now. New fuel line and filter, skateboard grip tape for the foot plates, different coloured cable and also battery cable, inline fuse holder and fuse and also some new decals from Mark! I just need a battery, rear tail light bulb and an ammeter and I will be there. In the long run I hope to fit a hydraulic lift and some new tyres. I cannot wait to get this one running!

slf-uk 914 #29 Posted May 14, 2015 Tom, Have you thought of getting an ignition plug pre-wired and either join trim back and join onto the existing wiring or pop the wires out of the plug and insert your existing wires. This is the type of thing I was thinking of http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ignition-Switch-Universal-Wiring-Harness-5-prong-18-long/181725389121?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D30545%26meid%3D608513c038d54b68ab8205a6d737501f%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D301303748195&rt=nc Many different pre-wired plugs available to suit the configuration of your switch Iain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #30 Posted May 14, 2015 Thanks for the link Iain, that looks very interesting, it would save me a lot of work and make it look near.. I may have to order one or two, it would make sense to order more than one to save on shipping.. Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #31 Posted May 17, 2015 Hi all, Had some time on the C-120 today. Got it all wired up, new fuel lines and filter and turned the key and off she went. I am very happy. It does smoke a little but I'm hoping a carb clean and de-carbon the head will help. It does run well though and the throttle shaft has minimal wear. Group photo: The next things to do are put the new decals on, grip tape on the foot boards, install an ammeter and clean up wiring and fuel lines and finally get a new battery for it. The only other problem is that the headlights work however they are intermittent and it's only when you wiggle the wires they work, faulty connection within the unit I expect? I haven't looked into it but are they sealed or can you split them? I have a video that I will try and upload later on. Tom 1 nigel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #32 Posted May 17, 2015 The lights will come all the bits, Tom. Take out the 4 screws on the front and the lights come off the back. Just make sure you have hold of the case, before removing the last screw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 215 #33 Posted May 17, 2015 Thanks Norm, hopefully I can fix that problem tomorrow Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
