Hello,
First post here. Looks like there is a ton of knowledge here and I am hoping to get some guidance on bringing my new to me 3208 back up to snuff. I'm a tractor newbie so bear with me! Another difficulty is the tractor is at our camp 90 mins away, so this work will be done overtime...
There are several issues that I have, maybe we can take a quick stab at them all, or I can break them out into separate posts if that would be better.
1) The wire harness to the headlight had melted and was shorting to the frame, and blowing fuses. I found the wires and have put electric tape on them, but I would like a permanent solution. SHould I replace the wires or splice in a piece? Also can someone post a picture of how the wires *should* be routed to avoid contact with the radiator shield that it melted against?
2) Cruise control will set, but pops back out after 10 feet. How does this mechanism engauge, I can see the tod going into the floor by the pedestal, but then what
3) Forward speed is 4.1MHP. I have read through

I have not taken the deck off yet, I just found the deck manual with instructions, once thats off I can get a picture. from looking at

Is the main adjustment between parts 44 and 45? Should the forward and reverse pedals be the sam height when stopped?
3) Seat won't adjust. I assume I need to take the seat off, and clean out the mechanism. (no guidance needed on this one yet...)
4) The right hand lift rod has sheared off, and needs replacing, anything I should be aware of?
part 16 here
