Damn nice restoration! Not being picky or negative at all, only things I saw that wouldn't have been original are painted gas tank (very orig galv finish), missing the flimsy plastic cover that went on top of the gas tank to the grill (it turned this nasty yellow color and looked like crap anyway), and the heat shield on the back of the engine keeping heat off of the hyd pump and you. That one ya should look for, otherwise, ya should be proud!
Thank you! All valid points, the tank color choice was made early in the restoration process due to lack of color pictures for reference. Once discovered, I decided to leave it alone. The plastic piece in front of the tank was purposely left off, since I couldn't think of a good reason to fabricate and install one. The rear heat shield/cover was installed sometime after this video was done. It was a fun project!
Two years later. Had a vandal ruin wiring. I need a wiring diagram or a complete owners manual. Any out there I'm willing to buy original or goog photocopy.
I've got the 2414 economy tractor not getting oil inside motor ran fine for a few days I noticed I have a gasket leak which I ordered will the fuel oil pump calls it to stop pumping oil in motor
Not really sure what your question is? The K-series Kohler engines do not have an oil pump, they are splash lubricated. There is a mechanical fuel pump, however.
@@XYooper906 sorry it took so long for me to get back with you all I know that the gas stop getting to spark plug and I also have a gasket leak will turn over but it won't crank getting fire
@@donniebrumbley9208 Remove the fuel line coming from the tank to the fuel pump. Make sure you're getting gas to the fuel pump. If not, there is a screen filter in the tank above the fuel petcock. Clean or replace it. If you are getting fuel to the pump, remove the fuel inlet line to the carburetor and place the end in a container. Crank the engine while observing the fuel hose. It should be pumping gas while cranking. If not, you have a bad fuel pump. Replace the pump or put a diaphragm kit in it. If the diaphragm is bad you will have a fuel leak.
Are you still running it? I have a 2414 with dual transmissions 6 forward and 4 reverse. I use it 4-5 times a week mowing, tilling, and trailering around the farm. Paid $2k. Three years ago. It needs a washing.
Some things I learned. Modified a t-----ilt tiller chassis n a 216 inch belt . front axles same pattern as wh-----rse rear wheels and weights for extra beef. 1/1 gear is very slow but pulled 3/4 ton truck stuck in mud. 3/3 gear runs 8-9 mph. Proud of my small but very real tractor.
Yes, in order to change the hydraulic pump belt, you have to split the engine from the transmission. It makes sense to install a spare belt at the same time. Alternatively, you can use a link style V-belt. Many people have used them with success.
I don't believe the company that I purchased them from is still in business, but they are available at www.serviceproparts.com/contents/en-us/d4371_Power_King,_Economy_decals.html
The same could be said about any other vehicle or machine, but I understand your point. In this case, it was a project to not only restore it mechanically (to be useful and reliable when/if it is used), but also to hone my welding, fabrication, and painting skills for other projects. After the many hours of that labor of love, I just couldn't bring myself to scratch it all up. The new owner had no such reservations and bought it with the full intent to use as a tractor. And I'm OK with that, and I will own another tractor for such use myself.
Very nice
Beautiful machine! You did a very nice job of the restoration.
Thank you! It went to a very happy new owner!
I am picking up a 1974 2414 tomorrow.
I want one of these so bad

That plastic cover on top of the gas tank can be found at Mission Manufacturing. I bought one several years ago from them.
Sweet old tractor

Where can I get the thing at the bottom of the gas tank ? I think it's called the fuel filter or pump not sure

It was sold in 2015. The new owner was planning to put it to work.
Do you happen to know the belt size for the mower deck
Sorry, I do not. All of my data went with the tractor to the new owner.
If you're still curious a year out, it's 1/2x97 if you have a 48" deck.
can you show how/where the throttle cable connects
Lacy Hidalgo-Gato: Sorry, I no longer own this tractor.
my power king has no fire
Robert Mason check points and condenser, then coil, and so on
All I ask is how did you get belt on I got same tractor you would have to split it
Yes, in order to change the hydraulic pump belt, you have to split the engine from the transmission. It makes sense to install a spare belt at the same time.
Alternatively, you can use a link style V-belt. Many people have used them with success.
What kind of grader blade is that? I thought the yellow ones were Category 1
I think that it was made by SpeeCo.
where did you get the replacement decals?
I don't believe the company that I purchased them from is still in business, but they are available at www.serviceproparts.com/contents/en-us/d4371_Power_King,_Economy_decals.html
Thank you. Your tractor looks great.

A tractor is made to be used not showed off

@kenneth A tool is made to be used, so I’m guessing you’re used often.
