  1. Sears, Craftsman Tractor Forum
    So i've started work on my SS14. Briggs. Changed oil (engine and axle), cleaned and filled gas tank, new battery, new plug. Engine turned over with good compression but wouldn"t start. Had spark to the wire (shocked myself) but not to the plug. Now the tractor won't do anything. Doesn't turn...
  2. Garden Tractor Forum
    I have a GT235 that I bought new years back. Recently while the mower deck clutch is engaged and mowing the engine will momentarily stop running, the hour meter shows all zeros, the deck clutch disengages then the engine resumes running. Re-engage the deck clutch and it mows for a bit then...
  3. Cub Cadet Tractor Forum
    I have a Cub Cadet that will start and run perfectly fine, but after a little while it will die. There is no bogging down sounds, it sounds like someone just hit the key switch. Occasionally it will have some backfire sounds, but usally not. I think it is a gas problem, because after it dies I...

    Found this sign on marketplace. I drove 4 hrs. round trip yesterday to pick it up. I wife wanted to know what I wanted for Christmas and this is one thing that I showed her and she said "ok". It was very dirty and I had to scrub the plastic with a scotch brite pad. Everything works good. It...
  5. John Deere Tractor Forum
    Hey all! I'm looking for a John deere 70 lawn tractor. Or, a OEM VH70 Tecumseh engine. Is there anywhere you could suggest that I look? I'm not having much luck finding this. Thanks much!
  6. Husqvarna Tractor Forum
    Folks, I have a tractor that I am fairly happy with, but..... Last year, it would not start dependably, so I wiggled and unplugged, re-plugged all the connectors I could. A little WD-40 for good measure. Sometimes, I had to use a screwdriver across the solenoid, as I got nothing from the key...
  7. Wheel Horse, Toro Tractor Forum
    The frame of my Wheel Horse 656 is in very good condition but the engine head now has a crack beyond repair. Anyone know where I can get a used or refurbished engine? I've been told that it is a Tecumseh 6HP.
  8. Bolens Tractor Forum
    I finally got around to changing the oil on one of my EK-10 Estate Keepers, which was long overdue. I have not changed the oil on this tractor yet since I purchased it about 3 years ago (partially since it was sitting in the garage for 2 years not running before I rebuilt the carburetor on it...
  9. Bolens Tractor Forum
    I recently acquired a Wisconsin S8D, new - NOS - Never run! Sweet deal!! The engine runs fine (of course), however it has an intermittent "sputter" or misfire which is more pronounced at higher rpm's. Would a worn out (aged) points condenser cause this? I cleaned the points and set the gap for...
  10. Gravely Tractor Forum
    Hi guys, New to the forum but not Gravely. I was given an old Promaster 300 with a blown engine. Any advice on what to do? It is a 20hp and I have another one just like it that I use to mow my lawn. Just would love to fix it or find another engine.

  12. Other Brand Tractor Forum
    Does anyone know anything about Eska lawn mowers? I bought this one for something like $30 from my neighbor this spring. I have never heard of a Eska lawn mower. I have heard of Eska outboards and Eska toy company. Can someone help me figure out the history on these? The engine on it is not...
  13. Parts
    I've got a crappy old 1997 lawn machine that I have been using when I work on my bolens. Recently, the engine blew up (lost compression and won't start. Assuming it's the crankshaft) but I would like to keep it as a spare. I'm hoping somebody has an engine lying around cheap that I could get...

  15. Garden Tractor Forum
    I'm hoping you guys can help me identify what happened today. It's the first day near 32F here in Michigan, so I figured I'd fire up my '91 Ford YT 16H (16hp B&S) and see how it did in the cold. Well, it started alright and for about 10-15 minutes I was playing with different choke/fuel...
  16. Tractors
    I have decided to try to reduce my collection significantly. I have too many projects and next to no time to work on any of them. In order to keep this post readable and from becoming a book I will only list the tractor and price. If you are interested in any of the tractors please send me a PM...
