    I have 1650 with the 50" mower deck. I just removed the cover to the pulleys as I was going to sharpen the blades when I noticed the idler pulley bearing is gone and the pulley is 1/2 way through the bolt holding it on. I have the manual / parts list for everything but the mower deck. Can...

    Mr. Thomley, This sounds exactly like what may be happening. The motor does turn over very easily after it shuts down, but obviously it does not start. Sometimes, if I try to start it too many times after a shutdown, the motor backfires. Is it a difficult process to perform the task you...

    I do not have a spare, but most of the parts are fairly inexpensive. Maybe I should just purchase a new coil and condensor? Is that you would try?

    The vent on the gas cap appears to be ok. I replaced the condensor last summer. Could it be bad again? Gosh I hope it is not a valve thing as I am not quite that handy

    I hate to keep posting this question, but I've been struggling with this issue all season. I have a 1650. I will be mowing for 30 - 45 minutes, and then the tractor will just stall. I wait 30 minutes or so, and it runs again. In the past 12 months, I have replaced the points, plug...

    Please excuse me if this is an ignorant question, but how do you properly adjust the points on a 1650?

    I have a 1650. The steering has become a little sloppy. A lot of play in the steering wheel until the wheels turn. Can someone tell me what I should look at to attempt to correct some of this slop? Thanks in advance for the help..... Ed

    I have a 1650. I was having issues with the engine running rough, back firing, etc... I confirmed that there is no mouse nest anywhere. I replaced the points, but now it will not start. It will start with old points, but not the new points. The contacts on the new points are connecting...

    I have a 1650. Stored for the winter a shed with no door, just a roof and three sides. Better than nothing I guess. This tractor was running fine last fall. This year though, it has been running really rough. Sometimes will run ok for a while then start spitting and sputtering. Sometimes it...

    I'm looking for an oil dipstick for a 1650. If you have one, please e-mail me at [email protected]. I know I can purchase a new one, but they are fairly expensive. Looking for a used one first. Thanks....

    Thanks guys... I will replace the coil and see how that goes. As for the blown head gasket theory, would I be witnessing any other symptoms if the gasket was blown? Like I stated earlier, the tractor starts and runs great for a period of time (~1 hour), then just kind of stalls. Let it...

    Hello everyone... I have a 1650. Earlier this year, I posted a question about my tractor stalling after running for some time, and not starting again until it cooled off. Someone told me try that mystery oil. Which I have been doing. Well, that last three times I've mowed, the problem is...
