I finally finished my rebuild Friday! Mowed the lawn and it seems to work well! I will have some carb adjustments to make as I had to half choke it part of the time...
I ended up having to basically destroying the pto pulley to remove it from the tractor. A local shop has a 129 in their bone yard where I can get a few parts. I took his entire pto pulley, flywheel and all. In removing my pulley, I ate up the flywheel basket in a couple of spots. After not being able to get the bering off, I decided to get everything put back together to see if the 129 pulley would work on my 147. They are a bit different. It works great so far!
I still want to replace the flywheel if I can get the colar off. The set screws are also eaten up on it as well. I'll have to do some creative removal skills o. It. We shall see...
