    Box Blade Project

    Terry, That is AWESOME! I have been wanting to make a box scraper for some time now. I don't suppose you have any plans for a write up of how you built, or dimensions (rough or exact)?

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Afternoon guys! Made some short progress last night. Pretty rough in there. Pics of driveshaft in tractor Throwout bearing has seen better days Same with Friction Disc This pin has been grooved so badly, I cannot take out. I think I will cut in half and replace...

    Safety First

    Hey all, wanted to share a little story that will hopefully remind everyone to put safety first and that an accident can happen anytime and anywhere. Father's day I was out in the garage putting tubes in the tires on the 582. I had just pulled a snap ring off a starter motor and stopped to put...

    Thanks for the input guys! If anyone is interested, I found this manual online. 170 some pages, so I just printed the carb part. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6NaqjIxWV1ybHphbUNTQUNNR2s/edit?pref=2&pli=1

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Bill, That is a pretty slick setup there. Price is good too! I will have to see if they have one at one of our local Walmarts. Good call on the float. I actually ordered a new one also. It was something like $10 and I figured that one was in pretty sad shape. Does anyone have a good...

    Well, I think I found the problem. Good thing is we have decent compression and fuel is flowing from tank through filter. Problem is the carb. Yuck! I am going to order https://www.partstree.com/parts/briggs-and-stratton/parts/694056/ and get er rebuilt

    Oops, I said cylinder! Yeah, that would not feel so good! Going to check fuel lines, float and pump tonight (hopefully) depending on what the boss has planned for me.

    I have always just put a piece of tissue in the spark plug hole and watched for it to fly out. Never tried using your thumb. Isn't it a little bit of a reach getting the with your thumb on the cylinder?

    Steve, I did NOT check compression. Thanks for reminding me. I will do the ol' tissue trick and see if we have compression. Thanks for the quick response.

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    So this is probably a stupid question, but does the fuel pump need primed or anything? Motor will crank, I have spark, but there is no fuel getting through the filter. Any way to test the pump? TIA!

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Ha! Yes, actually I drained the oil like substance from the crankcase last night. Filled up with some 10w30. It was suggested that I put a little Seafoam in the oil for a little bit. I thought as soon as she gets running, let it run and change after about 30-60 minutes. Sprayed some WD-40...

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Went out last night and pulled the plugs. Motor would turn about 1/4 turn. Worked it back and forth and after working it for a little it broke free and will turn. Good deal! Making a little progress here and there!

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Hope everyone had a great 4th! Haven't made much progress recently, but had a chance this weekend to play in the garage. My wife uses a Craftsman 3500 DLX for mowing and the motor blew up in it. I pulled the starter gear off of that and it appeared to match the bad gear off the 582. I pulled...

    What do I got, And how good is it ?

    Hey all! Haven't made much progress, but I guess any progress is progress. Here is the photo with the ag tires. I got the front tires pulled off so I can get some tubes in them. My neighbor has a set of front tires that match and if they are the proper size I may try to put those on. I need...
