Way way too loose. Just another take the tools away from whoever worked on it. :beatdeadhorse:

I'll run it till it blows then drop something air cooled in it to finish it's life. It will probably out live me as it is. It would cost more to rebuild the WG600 than the tractor is worth. :beerchug:

Did a little work on the PTO today. I replaced the bearings in it while ago but didn't get around to repairing the cracked epoxy on the field coil so got that over and done with today. Also pulled the spark plug wires to send them to Mike LaMar so that he can copy them. You 2182 owners stay tuned about Mike making wire for us. Removed the cap and rotor, I wonder how it even ran. They will be getting replaced. Pics of the PTO used JB weld on it tomorrow I'll hit it with the belt sander to smooth it up. :beerchug:

I redid the coil on the 1782 with Ultra black silicone and so far haven't had any problems. Just a question, is JB weld conductive?

If that ever happens, I call dibs on the WG. :biggrin2:

I don't think so. Tested it a few minutes ago and it works. Happy, happy, happy. :beerchug:

Sam that looks like an Accel wire set. Are you going to put a rev limiter on it and do 1/4 mile bracket racing?
