I think you put a whammy on me, & I should be banned from searching Craigslist!!! Yesterday I drove an hour from my place to check out a Cub with a Woods 59 mower...WITH the trailer, of course, JUST IN CASE!
2 hours later I was pulling into my farm with my new toy!!
This morning, I unloaded him/her? and started puttering a bit. First the choke rod had come loose at the carb, so a quick fix with a "baby" hitch pin. Then I removed most of the front Universal Mounting Frame, because it restricted the height of the mower.
The seat post is loose...maybe PO tried to use bolts that are too long....task for after my lunch break. Because of the seat post bolt, the PO installed a toolbox using a different bolt location...one of the other rear platform bolts.
It has a new 12v battery, neg ground, with a generator. The seller said the lights didn't work, so I told him it was probably a 6v system, and the bulbs were blown. However, he pointed out that the ammeter does show deflections, and he thought it was charging. Guess someone might have installed a 12v generator? To be determined.
Anyway, THANKS TO ALL YOU ENABLERS!!
Looks like I will have something to keep me busy for a while longer!
