Look What Followed Me Home Today

[albie]

I went to Denton MD today and met fellow garden tractor enthusiast Ed Collins and came home with a 1650 with a tiller. It is in excellent condition and has had new mounts put by him. I have the tunnel cover and the left side panel and it just needs the carb rebuilt.

Boy I knew it wouldn't take long for Vince to jump in there!! Glad you had a safe trip down and back Albie. Nice set up.

[albie]

Thanks Guys, Daniel, I found this on here in for sale it has been on since Dec. saw it on a repost two weeks ago

Vince, thanks but for the price it is a good one and the mounts are new and the driveline is also solid and I know how you feel about QL cubs
it will definitely make working my garden nicer

Steve, Thanks

That looks like a nice tractor. As to being a QL I have never had one so i do not know how good they are.

Ok had some time this afternoon and got the 1650 running, the float was stuck and it wont idle but it did come off the trailer under its own power. The engine sounds good and no smoke and the tiller runs smooth and quiet. So i couldn't help myself so i tried it out and the tiller works awesome!

just tilled one strip in my plowed garden

[stevet]

Looks good Albie!! I've got a garden you can play in too!! lol

[rweaver]

I dont know how much you like your section between your legs but you better get a tunnel cover on it before you use it I have heard of guys getting wrapped up in the driveshaft

[albie]

it came with loose parts with it I just havent put it on but it willbe on before any more use, Thanks ray

Im glad to see you got her running. I knew it wouldnt take much to get her going. I hope you have good luck with it. I was sad to see her go, but im glad she has a good home with a fello cubber.

[vince_o]

Well you cant beat the tillers that for sure. They work better on a NF, LOL

Really its nice to see something saved

[Cubboy06]

Albie hows that 1650 treating you?

[albie]

Ed put it in the garage last weekend to fix a few minor things tightened the tension nut on the hydrostat lever took carb off and apart to clean and ordered a tiller belt, the short one kept coming off so i ordered one from a post here from napa, the one on it was a 1/2" and replacement is 3/8" fit better. should be great when its all back together.

Bought a nice QA42A off E-Bay the other day about 15 miles from home. Very good condition ready for snow(not until winter) for $132 couldn't pass it up

[Racenitro]

Vince...I agree.....
Anybody want a bunch of QL's cheap?

[l palma]

Albie,
Always good to plan ahead,I hear it's going to be a bad winter....Nice looking thrower.

[albie]

Lew you know how it is... close to home ...and the price was right. If i waited till october or november would have been $300 or more around here
