    Thanks TG. The dark green wire is connected to the starter switch on my tractor. The blue wire was connected to that and one of the poles on the fuel gauge. There is another lighter green wire thati have no idea where it's supposed to go, it was just taped over. Before I disassembled the gas...

    Working on reassembly on the 830. The radiator is back in, the one hose for the water pump is a little too big but I have it clamped to hopefully hold the coolant in. The gas tank is back on, I didn't get the tank liner yet, that might be a winter project. I'm currently working on the dash to...

    Thanks Jim. I don't have a manual or parts book, yet, I'll have to get one. I appreciate your help. Gene

    Would anyone know where to get one, or have have a suggestion if one can't be found? I checked Napa, tractor supply and external_link websites as well as Amazon and eBay but didn't see anything. I thought about trying to reattach the broken prong but that doesn't seem likely either. Gene

    Hell has been unleashed today. Currently it's 2:10pm the air temp according to my phone is 93 but feels like 106. Regardless I started reassembling the front end of the 830. It took a few tries and obligatory cuss words before I finally got things put back together. I just need to get a couple...

    The tank is for the most part cleaned. My thought is that the tank liner dissolved which caused the chugging issues when it was moving. I'll have to order the tank liner later and hopefully get that issue resolved. My uncle soldered the radiator drain and support so now I'm ready to reassemble...

    What I thought would be an easy task turned into a major repair. I noticed the power steering belt looked a bit frayed so I begin to disassemble the front end to get at it. Everything seemed to be going along fine until I get to draining and removing the radiator. I'm not sure what the previous...

    I did notice there isn't any grease zerks on the steering column or shaft aside from one near the battery box. The hand lever and foot throttle want to slip back instead of staying wide open while running. Could that just be a simple adjustment of the linkage? Today I'm going to try the...

    I've ordered from John a few times and will be ordering the dash lights from him. I'm going to take the tank into work and see if I can get some of the rust out with a pressure washer then try the electrolysis method. I've got some stainless steel nuts & bolts I can throw in for the tumbling...

    I just took the fuel gauge of is the tank. Here's what it looks like. There looks to be quite a bit of rust/sediment on the bottom of the tank and inside. Looks like I'll need to find an old electric cement mixer to tumble the tank to get rid of the rust.

    Here's what my dash wiring currently looks like. The bulb for the temp gauge isn't hooked up at all. Then there's the wires below the bar that were just taped over. There are a couple wires under the deck that aren't connected to anything but that will get addressed later when the tank and dash...

    That sounds similar to how I cleaned out my SC tank. I used nuts and bolts with a solution to break up the rust in it. I do have the tank off and will get to cleaning that up. I'm looking at the wiring of the dash. It's quite the conglomeration. A couple wires are for the dash lights, it looks...

    E85 to clean the tank out but not too run in the engine? Doesn't the ethanol gas wreak havock on older engines? Or does that mostly pertain to small engines? Thanks for the tip, Jon. Gene

    I have the tank off and it's was pretty much plugged with gunk. How would I go about cleaning the tank for any more sediment? I know this 830 tank is different from the SC I have. Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. I'm hoping that was the main issue for the tractor not running decent...

    Yes, I see that it wouldn't really be possible unless as you stated to shim the fenders. I could really go nuclear and make a whole new decking plate to accommodate the pedals that can't be moved. That will be somewhere down the road should I get that far or don't get the itch to trade this for...
