Dicky mint 2 #1 Posted April 24, 2017 Hi all New member here. I have just bought a pair of Horwool Triple X 84's to hopefully do up and get running. the only problem being that i do not have a clue what i am doing. I bought them for nostalgic reasons as my Grandad had one when i was younger. Any tips on where to begin, where to get parts etc is much appreciated!

madmatt01 107 #3 Posted April 24, 2017 Iv just finished mine. These later became known as nicholson turfmaster. Iv not come across a a place to buy parts... I was lucky to.have most bits with mine. I done a full strip down and rebuild with some changes i.e larger rear wheels. 1 Dicky mint reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dicky mint 2 #4 Posted April 24, 2017 Best I can take at minute will empty garage soon and get some proper snaps. One appears in reasonable condition but has been stood a long time the other not as good! Hoping between the two I will get one looking top notch. Both have split tires so moving them is hard work 2 Stormin and Alan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madmatt01 107 #5 Posted April 24, 2017 Looking good. Best thing would be get then out in the sunshine and start tinkering. Download engine manuals and get them running then work your way through them. The rear brake set up.is the same as.morris minor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmackellow 2,738 #6 Posted April 24, 2017 Welcome to the forum Kohler information is obtainable on line as for specific bits for the Horwool they are not common Good luck with your restoration(s) ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dicky mint 2 #7 Posted April 24, 2017 Thanks everyone I have printed out the engine manual. One has a external coil not sure on wiring to it though as all unattached when we got it. Will drag them out and get some fresh fuel and oil in them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #8 Posted April 24, 2017 There's some wiring info in Matt's Horwool engine woes thread. As you strip them, take plenty of photo's for reference on re-assembly. As a point of interest, where about in Lancashire are you? I'm originally Lancashire born and bred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
