Yea well,
I told him he was getting a new spring or he was getting his pump back just like he sent it.

So it's heading back to him tomorrow with new gears and a new spring, LOL

It's not like you can find gears just anywhere.

Or springs....
Doug Anderson,
the later style heat shield hits the front grill housing on a 122,123,PO put a replacement kohler in my 123 and bent the newer shield to make it fit.

Charlie...It's called "Pay me now" or "Pay me more later"

LOL

Due to many of my esteemed colleagues suggesting the "heat and beat" method I will give that try. My concern is that the u will expand due to the extra metal being displaced, but then again might be over thinkin it.

Now dats a nice u-bolt transformation. Now hurry and put it in before it changes back at midnight!

Charlie,
if my attachments drift down when the tractor is running; is that a sign the pump is wore and not holding pressure or the cylinder seals leaking past? I'm not used to a pump with an internal valve.
Do you know what the pump pressure is supposed to be?

I've never had one that didn't leak down a little, but that was after the machine was shut off.
I have seen a cracked gear do that.
I did find one once that the pump spool valve had cracked though.
I have no clue what the pressure output is, but I'm sure someone here does.

Thanks Lew. That is what I thought. I haven't put the engine back in yet.
