Couple of questions after working today. Based on the S/N # and model # i posted can you help me with the following questions.
1) I got the sheet metal off, and the gas tank removed. The previous owner had a length of rubber fuel line running from the tank to the sediment bowl. Assuming a real fuel line is best, I am trying to determine the correct part from the parts diagram. I am thinking part # 86580561. Don't see it a lot when I google it, it says for tractors after SN 126524, part #310918 says for before S/N 126525 which my tractor is and I see it is a lot more common. Not sure which is correct for my application.
2) With the SOS Speed transmission, it has the PTO handle that is pulled to engage the PTO. Right now the driveline is disengaged via the strap that is by the tranny dipstick. When the tractor runs the PTO shaft spins, should it spin at ALL if the lever is pushed all the way in? Should be spin at full speed if the handle is pulled out even when the tranny is disengaged? After additional research it sounds like it isn't uncommon, but I should be able to press a 2x4 on the PTO to stop the spinning if it isn't actually powered....still have the question IF it SHOULD be able to spin under power with the tranny disengaged and the handle pulled out
3) The tractor doesnt seem to have the "inching pedal" i have read about the on the inter webs and in the manual. Rather it has what it appears to be a clutch with a full range of motion (10-11")
Good news is that after replacing the plugs that the tractor starts without the use of starting fluid. I will be moving on to some wiring concerns. Thanks is advance.
