Re: Winter Snow and Storm Pics

First snow photo. Took the 1811/450 out for a 20 foot test and worked well in 2 inches of snow. Looks like some good fun this coming Thursday and Friday.

Re: 450 Auger Bushings

Wow, are the welds also broken away from the auger shaft? The spirals are too far away from the gear box. Tom you found it! This 450 came along with my 1811 I bought few years back. The 1811 also included 2 blades and 3 mower decks. For me a good deal. The guy had a steep driveway and said it could...

Thanks for the comments folks! They are bronze so a bit of oil. Back together, before and after shots. Besides the bent RH auger what else do you see on the old augers? This 450 came with my 1811 so damage was from PO. Dave Chester thanks the augers worked great!

In anticipation of a return to winter, finally working on the 450. For future reference here is what you need to remove to get the auger assembly out. . 2022-06-25_11-04-44.jpg 2022-06-25_11-05-22.jpg 2022-06-25_11-06-13.jpg .

New 1650 has been put to work. Virtually no smoke, looks like a few months of MMO did the job, or maybe it's out of oil!

Any concerns?

Re: New 1650

My 1650 sat a few winter months with MMO added to the cylinder. Got it running yesterday and I'd say I have about 20% of the smoke when running compared to when I got it. So it appears the MMO is working. Added more and will let sit for a few days and run again.

Re: 1811 Carb

This one had an extra choke shaft to get the choke working in the right direction. This 1811 tractor 450 combo is dedicated to starting in winter during blizzards and 10F outside. The high cost amortized over the next few years doesn't matter.

My daughters lawn mower got a $12 carb.
