My brother just junked a 18/6 4 days ago that needed some WORK but I he guy said it ran when he parked it in the lean too and then the wind took it down !
All I can say is sit back on the couch at night and surf the web and before you know it they are practically falling into your lap. Okay that was my luck lol!
Yup! This has been the best deal yet! I can't believe I actually own this tractor, I'm hoping I can get my 73 ss16 running as good as this one so I can save this one.
@@71_sears97 bought mine and live in the panhandle of West Virginia. Got a oil leak coming from somewhere noticed when I was pressure washing at all. Owner complained about needing to replace fuel pump vacuum issues? He told me to put a electric fuel pump on it to fix the problem? Any thoughts? Any forums I can join that would help?
Tom R if you are on Facebook, the best place is the Sears Suburban Backyard Tractor Club. Great group of knowledgeable people. I’d check to see if your rubber lines are in good shape and replace if they are hard or cracking. Personally I’d rebuild the fuel pump, most electric pumps (besides being loud) flow way too much fuel and end up flooding the engine out bad
@@71_sears97 I'll have the Mrs make me up a Facebook. Planning on a fully going over every inch of this tractor. Considering a repaint ,but I'd rather see it roper colors than that ugly mustard . Thanks your your input
Tom R if the paint is still in nice shape on yours, it would be a shame to paint it because finding nice original tractors are quite hard to find these days. I only collect nice condition ones and rare ones. They are far and few between
This was before they were being reproduced. The fuel pump body at the time was going for around $50-60 and for me it was free to get it running that way
