    K301 rebuild

    Found it. It's a 1999 IHC Blue Ribbon Service publication that covers everything having to do with the power take-off clutch. Will get this out today, with the clutch set-up tool.

    K301 rebuild

    Will get this mailed today, or Monday, as I have some installation and adjustment instructions archived here somewhere, which I'll send also.

    Rebuilding pto

    Make sure that large internal snap ring is in the PTO hub! You can get the assembly in place without it, but without it you'll never get the hub and bearing in the proper location on the shaft!! Been there; done that!!

    K301 rebuild

    There is a gauge you use when adjusting the three nuts and screws holding the assembly together. I have an extra gauge. Give me your name and address and I'll mail it to you pronto.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    Just submerge the float in a teacup of very hot water. If there is still a leak, you will see bubbles immediately.

    New mower is a piece of junk so far!

    Take the wires off the seat switch and splice them together. No more problems

    New in Illinois

    I'd ask $750, then come down a bit if need be!

    Score!

    Sure looks like a Gravely from here!

    Score!

    As I recall, MTD make these riding mower/tractors for Western Auto, however I hear Bolens did, also.

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    I doubt it's the timing. If you set your point gap (I think it's .020"), then that sets the timing. There is no other timing adjustment other than the point gap.

    782 fuel pump

    Good deal. Too bad these engines can't be totally gravity fed.

    Headlight switch help

    It shouldn't matter how you wire the switch. It's simply "on/off" and carries very low power.

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    Use it a bit more and see how it operates. Sounds like you're OK.

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    Nope. Walbro only has the idle jet and the main. No accelerator pump or power valve.

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    If I was messing with the engine, I'd get the engine up to operating temperature, then set the throttle at a fast idle and adjust the idle speed screw 1 1/2 turns out from the seat. Then I'd add about 3/4 throttle and set the main fuel needle 2 1/2 turns out from the seat. That adjustment...

    782 fuel pump

    I bet the pump says "Made in China" somewhere on it!

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    I've always installed the bolts dry after cleaning up the threads. But if you lube them up, a few drops of engine oil will do. Or spray them with silicon. If all you have is WD, go for it.

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    The Kohler service manual shows ways, which are not the only ways, to effect engine services.

    106 vs 127 vs 147 Newbie Questions

    If you can find an Adel clamp that's slightly undersized, that would work!

    Do I have a leaky head gasket?

    Hold on! New heads are expensive, not to mention hard to find! Try this: pull the plug wire off and have someone crank the engine while you look and listen right at the head. Do you hear a "pfft, pfft"? Try to tighten the head bolts, especially the ones forward on the head. A bit loose...
