Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

Thanks David.

My understanding is the Linamar engines are equivalent to the Onan P series engines.

LX770 = P218G
LX790 = P220G
LX990 = P224G

I had the day off with the intention of using my 4020PS with the Johnny Bucket to clear the grass where the shed is going before another nor'Easter hits tomorrow and things didn't go as planned.

I found a small puddle of oil under the tractor which after removing the belly pan and tower screens I ...

I also got replacement springs installed on both RM48 mule drives. The original springs were stretched out. I also had to stretch the new springs to install them. It's hard to see in the photo I took but the spring is presently stretched. I could probably fit a quarter or nickel between the ...

If memory serves me correct it should be a nickle between coils . Rule of thumb with that kind of spring is . Full tension is when the gap between coils is equal to the thickness of the wire it is made from . I usually try for a gap between 1/2 and full thickness of the wire diameter once the belt ...

Wheel weights are on and so are the suitcase weights. JB tooth bar is also on. I've got to find someone to weld the replacement tooth back on.

I had the poor man's power steering installed on my 4016. Made ...

I swapped over the seat switches today. Pretty straight forward process. I wasn't able to find much info on the forums so here is the cliff notes version.
1. Unplug the seat switch. The seat switch connector does not appear to have a latch. I grabbed each half of the connector and gently pulled ...

I went to start the 4020PS today and it protested starting and running for a few seconds. The Linamar cranks kind of slow. It's still got the Amazon starter in it. I haven't swapped the rebuilt Linamar starter in yet. Battery is 300CCA dated 2025. I've also cleaned the wiring ring terminals. I'll ...

Tractor is back together :thumbsup:

Both mowing decks are still partially assembled. I was planning to seal up the rust before reassembling the decks. Running out of nice weather here. I also would like to to put the Johnny bucket on this weekend. Not sure I'll get to use it ...
