I bought this 1250 last winter. The PO took it apart and lost interest in the project. A member from another forum put me in touch with the owner. He had the engine bored 0.010 over, bought a Kohler piston/ring set, new valves and gasket kit. I had the crank reground and replaced the rod and reassembled the engine. Anytime the engine is out of one of these is a great time to tighten the steering and repair the drive line. I added solid engine mounts (thanks JeffinPA) did the cradle mod and thoroughly degreased it. Put the tractor together, serviced and leveled the mower deck. I ran this tractor and it runs great and very smoothly. The tractor was given a bath....and sold it to friend of mine.
