    Late 8N steering box lube problem

    I left out the fact that the bolt hole is the same one I used on the other late model 8N's I have owned. (right hand side, captures sheet metal.) Again, thanks

    Late 8N steering box lube problem

    t is not an aftermarket box. It is a VERY low hour tractor and the 3rd one I have owned. I bought the first one in 1972! I sold that one a couple of years ago in an auction, and have owned the present one many years as well. The bolt hole I am using is the one called out in the owners manual on...

    Late 8N steering box lube problem

    easonable question. My buddy finished it up and has done a million jobs since and does not remember. Easy to check the bolt hole? In what manner? I probed it with a wire and find no obvious path into the box.

    Late 8N steering box lube problem

    As part of a major rebuild of my late model 8N, we rebuilt the steering box, which was near perfect to start with, but it ended up with a slight leak out of the right hand sector shaft. I finally got around to replacing the seal and discovered only one seal rather than 2, I'll blame my buddy for...

    Kohler carburetor problem

    tarted mower today, sounded fine, idled well. So I ran it outside and mowed some grass for 20 minutes or so. It ran great and no fuel leak. Go figure... Maybe the needle and seat decided to be friends.

    Kohler carburetor problem

    My repair with the O ring to limit the fuel level seemed to have worked fine. It ran like a new one with no longer having a fuel leak. It sat all day with no leak, but at the end of the day started a slow drip. Defies logic. Mine anyway. I will win this battle at some point!

    Honda tractor 5013

    I have a 3813, bought new in the early 80's. Had to replace the timing belt a couple of years ago, which was quite a project. It still runs like new. I'll keep it till one of us dies.

    Kohler carburetor problem

    o seat, apparently I was not getting enough sleep and remembered wrong! Anyway, the needle and seat looked perfect, and when I turned the carb upside down, the float was level with the casting. But not being satisfied, I took a miniature o ring (.100 od and .050 id and stretched it over the post...

    Kohler carburetor problem

    T.R.K. Again, good advice. Maybe I thought there was a seat and there was not. Hmmm, got me wondering. Thought I remembered a fiber washer, if so, there was a seat. I'll try the lapping if appropriate. Thanks.

    Kohler carburetor problem

    Steve, Thanks for the hints, which I have used some of in the past. I will admit to doing something I traditionally have not done, I trashed the original parts prior to insuring the rebuild was satisfactory. Mistake on my part. What I am sure of is the cleanliness of it all. I may have to use...

    Kohler carburetor problem

    I have a Kohler Command 20 on a ZTR mower, the carb leaks fuel, so I ordered a kit and rebuilt it, (new needle and seat etc.) It still leaks. I proved it is the needle seat, because with the fuel bowl off if I raise the float with my finger it will shut off and not leak, although I seem to have...
