Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)
As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.
As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

I managed to get a techy running. :bliss
But the carb definitely needs to be tuned. the information that I was able to find is vague at best. So if anyone has any tips or tricks please let me know.
And please go into details because remember your talking to a humidification engineer. So talking to me like I'm ignorant to the subject is perfect. ex: "the little screw with a spring on the left side is your ________ adjustment screw". That is perfectly fine for me and would be very beneficial.
Thanks in advanced guys.
Oh yeah it would help to let you know what engine I'm working with here. It is a 6 hp techy. I believe the tag reads HH60.

One on the side with a spring is air, one at the bottom of the bowl is fuel. The fuel is very touchy and when you get it right you'll know it, easiest way to adjust any carb is shoot for the highest idle from each adjustment.

When I put the tractor in gear is sounds as if the engine is going to stall out under the load of the tranny. I'm afraid if I put the deck back on it, its not going to be able to handle the load of the deck as well.
Any thoughts?

I think I might just have an old tired Techy. Is that even possible?

Good point never checked. Wouldn't I have issues with acceleration as well though? (really I have no idea, I'm guessing here

I would have no idea how to check. I will learn one day though. I would imagine its decent to the point were it will run and accelerate. :happy1
