    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    That’s what I was referring to , what is the path from bowl to where it drips out. If I could find that damaged part I would buy one. I’ll take some pictures this weekend.

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    How does fuel get to the overflow port?

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    It’s new, doesn’t have any liquid inside. Feels like it moves freely, not sure what to check next.

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    Both are new, needle is rubber tipped. Is it possible that something is preventing float from lifting??

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    So I replaced the float and float pin. Cleaned and flushed everything out and it still pours gas out the overflow. I removed the bowl and turned the gas on, I can easily start and stop gas flow by gently raising the float. All new parts are OEM. The only part I can’t remove is the brass piece...

    Model 60 restoration

    Awesome job, that tub looks sweet!

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    Replaced needle and seat, will remove the float and check to see if that leaks.

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    So I got the driveshaft replaced, thanks Rob Houtz, and the hydro operates smoothly. Also replaced the sediment bowl and rebuilt the carb. I used a Koehler rebuild kit with the needle and seat, but it still overflows gas. Not sure why the needle won’t seal, any ideas? This needle didn’t have...

    Not sure what the right way is to replace the driveshaft on a 147, but this is how I am doing it. As you can see, there’s a lot of dirt and oil buildup on everything. A good cleaning will be needed first, then repair driveshaft. Brakes also need attention.

    #7 Trailer

    You made the right decision, these don’t come up for sale very often and this one is in great shape!

    #7 Trailer

    I’ve never seen one for sale, wouldn’t pass up within a reasonable distance, it looks cool and seems rare these days.

    #7 Trailer

    I could see an IH collector easily paying double or even triple for the trailer in that condition, I wouldn’t blink at $900, just pay up and tow it home

    I will make one of these at work on the lathe, good job to practice up on machining, thanks for the good info guys, nice to hear good advice from good people on the forum!

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    Has anyone installed a bushing in a carb for the throttle shaft? The one on this 147 is really sloppy. Is this a part I have to make or can I buy one?
  15. Brad Kamm

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    My limited carb skills got the engine running fairly well. The carb was very dirty and center jet was bent. Did the best I could with straightening, replaced fuel line, and flushed all the ports. Starts good, but still idles a bit rough, overall happy with results. Plan to get a new head gasket...

    My first yellow GT, rough 147

    This 147 is my first yellow and white true garden tractor. A nice addition to the 182, 382S, 80, 81, and 682. I think this machine has had a tough life. A cheap price and nice features made the deal. The engine (K321a) runs fairly well except at low rpm’s, needs carb cleaning and cables are...

    Parts Wanted Need front axle for lawn tractor

    Will do, thanks for the offer. I am really hoping to find a front blade with the correct mounting brackets and a rear bagger, those don’t seems to be very popular.
