I got a bit more of the garden plowed today after changing the rear tires back to the orignial 6-12 turf tires. I just wanted to see what if anything they would do as far as traction for pulling a 10"moldboard plow.

All thats left to plow under is where the potatoes are.

Yes it will bolt up, but that's about all.

Feels like a stupid question, and I'd rather not ask it . . .

I've tried to do a keyword search on the various archives, but I can't seem to find what I'm after.

I'm working on a Kohler #26 carb from a 10HP K241, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the bowl off.

Can anyone steer me in the right direction?

 

[zsmolka]

Charlie, what do you mean that's about all? will every thing else be wrong?

Look on the bottom of the fuel bowl. You will see a brass nut, take it loose and there ya go.

Cubbies- 122 Cub, she wont turn over. Nothing. I've got lights, nice and bright but thats all. My wife said she (Cub) was turning over fine today but didnt start. Shut it off for a few seconds, tried to restart and got nothing. Later tried again and got a click click click. Now I get nothing. (at least as far as the cub goes) A pretty routine question I suppose... Any suggestions where to look first? Thanks as always. Dave

Zach,
The drive shaft probably won't line up right, I don't think the brake linkages will either. The hydro linkage would need revamping as well if memory serves me right.
And if your thinking about using the hydraulic lift on the 147. That would be a nightmare IMHO to get everything stuffed under the tunnel cover of the 147.

David - Since you say the lights are bright then I take it the ground is good from battery so I'd go after the heavy wire from the solenoid to the gen/starter and then if that's good check the solenoid itself.

edit : the brushes in the gen may be stuck too

Thankyou Charlie!

Charlie:

On the bottom of my #26 carb is what appears to be a PLUG. I remove the plug and I see what appears to be a brass metering jet. The tip of an extra-long needle runs right down the center into this jet.

Plug and needle are removed. The jet is slotted, but it's soft brass and it's *really* stuck in there.

Bowl is still firmly in place. Is it just STUCK to the bowl gasket?
