New to me, 882
Hey guys! wanted to share with you my acquisition news- got a 882 last week. Spent Saturday checking it out and a good cleanup-inside and out!
found the following items to attend to-
Alternator has no output- PO bought a Denso replacement but still in box.
wiring in good shape but need to chase down some gremlins
PO installed a gear reduction starter but did not do enough clearance work around the hot starter cable - almost shorting out
pressure relief valves on the hydro unit weeping out vent holes- if there anyone close to me that repairs them?
I did install the new alternator- the pivot boss from the old alt is the perfect thickness to be used as a spacer for the new alt install- so I cut it off and used it with a 60 mm bolt. Wiring was very easy- now was 14.5 volt output!
SO- gave it a through bath- fixed a few items- found some items needing attention - making plans on what to do next- adjusting the starter side engine bracket is next so there is no melt down and the hydro leak. Man- was that little tractor dirty!! It almost took more time to clean the driveway than it did to clean the tractor! more to come latter-
