Re: Restoration or parts? Ingersoll 4118
While there are issues with the hydraulically driven decks and snowcasters this would make an excellent tilling plowing or dozing tractor. Would hate to see it parted out being a semi-rare model as well. Bob I agree with you, Bob, they are a beast of a tractor. The bigger pump and cooler and power ...

Re: Cold Weather Starting??
Another issue with cold starting is the cold cranking amp rating of the battery. There are several versions of the U1 Lawn and Garden Battery. Buying on price point will get you a 230CCA at a box store and will crank an Onan in the summer. It will not even click the relay if setting out side at fre...

Re: Cold Weather Starting??
We're right next to Lake Huron. It think we're in the same boat. I don't remember what oil I put in the 226. Either 15w40 or straight 30. But I can't stand old oil in anything I own. It must've been fresh. Just to test, I'd rule out the oil by running 0w40. If it solved the problem clearly it was t...

Re: Cold Weather Starting??
That rolled over like mine does on a warm day :o . Single digit F. would be common there. At home we rarely get much snow at low temps, but three hours north we are getting into the Superior snow belt and if the wind is right, it snows even below zero. Would probably be going to lighter oil. Thought...

Cold Weather Starting??
I thought I'd throw this out as some here deal with some seriously cold weather too. So, how cold are you starting your tractor at? Do you have it in a heated shop? Is one engine better than another? My Onan in my 4118 has always been a tough starter the colder it gets. Not a big deal at home, can p...

Re: Forum News
I think it's all going to come together. A little time to get "out there" will help. Once it starts coming up in goggle searches it will come.

Re: Introduction of Harry
Hi guys, Yes I burn that much rod at work welding well casing. That much would not be a hobby for me.😵 Eugen A spot in shop talk might work too. I'm good at what I do but a narrow skill set.

Re: Introduction of Harry
Hi Harry,
Nice to see you here too. You'll have to share some of your metal art. What's your go to home welder/process?
I'm mainly a stick guy, 5-6 hundred pounds of rod a year. Little bit of wire. I'm amazed by tig, should go learn some new stuff someday.
