Have you tried a floor razor scraper, that’s what we always used after tearing up glue down carpet

Found some time today to look at my 1990 Polaris trail boss 250. The rear wheels had locked up on it maybe October 2024. Thought it was going to be the drive belt but it was the piston in the rear brake caliper, the master cylinder was full of junk and water, cleaned and flushed the brake...

It’s on my list, and sooner rather than later. Probably next year, possibly this year but trying to clean up the property and getting the fire wood in, is going to take priority. There will be a thread when I pull it out. I will post here soon with the make and model

I would have to have a look to see the model, it’s half buried in an old out building. All I know is it’s diesel, Massey Ferguson, has hydraulics to the 3 point hitch and a rear pto, and that it ran when put away roughly 10 years ago

You could be right in regards to passing on it, we will never know now. I had found an identical tractor, year and model that came with the loader and backhoe but no tiller, the one I was looking at had the tiller attachment which I don’t think I needed but it came with it so it had a value...

If I had it over, I would have put my best foot forward on this one, I had offered 8500.00 which was low, really low, but I was hoping he would come back with 10,000.00. He ended up selling it to the guy after me for 11,500.00 It started and ran great, he lifted the tractor with the bucket and...

Nice find, I’ve contemplated picking up those free snowblowers and lawn mowers that seem to come up on marketplace fairly regularly.

I think I have it figured out lol,

Both new springs came in today, the one I thought it was and the one the dealer said it was. Both springs are the same length, the spring I thought it was has more coils but still the same length. Anyways when I put the new spring on, it runs as it should but when I throttle it down, the...

I don’t think it would hold up either

Yes, when I push the throttle lever up making the rpm’s increase, there would be more tension on the spring that attaches at the throttle lever and goes to mid point on the governor arm. My research says I need spring 16562-ZL8-000 and the Honda dealer says I need spring 16561-Z0J-000 the one...

Unfortunately I have no idea what any of that means, perhaps this evening I will do some searching and see if I can figure out what your saying and how that works

WHAT?

So the problem easily presented itself, spring halfway up the governor arm is broken on the the throttle lever side. I started it, and pulled the spring as if to attach it to the throttle control lever and the rpm’s increased. I will say, not any spring would do since it was very responsive to...

Thanks for the reply but if I push on the bar lol it idles up fine. I’m going out to look at it shorty here. Got caught up yesterday fixing a friends Honda 690 engine on his wood splitter.

I looked it up tonight, it was a fuel shut off solenoid.

Well, 4th times a charm. Went to my friends this afternoon with the intention of taking the carb off for the 3rd time and removing the idle jets that I missed the first two times and the emulsion tubes that were under the main jets. Took it apart, cleaned the idle jets, couldn’t get the...

I was able to find 3 or 4 good videos showing how to set the governor on this particular engine, seems to be very easy to do. I will find out tomorrow if that is the problem
