ehertzfeld Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Ok Im cnfussed, the landlord that I got from Kirk, the MFG#is 990314 and the serial#is 011765. Is it a 314 or a 765. I have a seat pan from a Broadmoor that has a model#765 on it. As you can tell, Im not that too educated on these. thanks for any help. Elon
dav Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Aside from the color and the seat, that looks an awful lot like my Big Ten
tanman722001 Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 I think it is 1964 landlord with a 9hp motor in it.As for 314 or the 765 i dont really know what ur trying to say.Tony
Kent Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 It is a 1964 model, 990314, 9 HP Landlord. The "clue" is the black dash... that was done one year only, as far as I know. It is the equivalent of an Early B-10 Allis, also with the 9HP. Other clues, it should have a large round cast-iron steering gear, rather than the pie-shaped sector of later models... this is a "holdover" from the 725's and B-1 vintage... Here's what it looked like new" [img]http://www.simpletractors.com/images/new_in_1964/landlord_pg4_small.JPG[/img] Here's the brochure: http://www.simpletractors.com/simplicity/new_in_1964/landlord.htm
ehertzfeld Posted October 30, 2003 Author Posted October 30, 2003 ok but a 765 is a broadmoor right? I found out what year it was from the site. It dose have a 9hp briggs. But I would like to find out the number of it. It kinda looks like it would be a 314.
rokon2813 Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 Elon its a 314 trust me. Just dont tell anyone that seat cover is off a green thing
Kent Posted October 30, 2003 Posted October 30, 2003 The 990765 is a 728 Broadmoor... That is the serial number of the tractor that has the 765 in it... the serial number is a sequential number and unique for each tractor of that model. The Manufacture Number 990314 is what people also call a Product Number and identifies a specific model of tractor including the factory-installed options it came with (such as electric start, hydraulic lift, etc.)
thedaddycat Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 This is from the "Made When" table........ 1963 990230 600 Wonderboy 990153 32" Rotary Mower 990234 400 Wonderboy 990236 24" Rotary Mower 990287/288/303 6HP Broadmoor 990289 32" Rotary Mower 990293 32" Snow Thrower 990308/314 9HP Landlord 990174 32" Tiller And the link to the whole page that this info is on.... http://www.simpletractors.com/made_when/1957-1964.htm So it could be a '63 or '64, but those and the early B-10 were the only ones to use the Model 23 D Briggs 9 horse engine.... BTW, that engine number dates to I think Sept 1965, so it is a repower for sure. I have a 1963 parts engine, had I decided to keep and restore that one I'd have rebuilt and used it.
ehertzfeld Posted October 31, 2003 Author Posted October 31, 2003 Ok so its a 1964-65 Landlord 314. Thanks guys Its hard to help some one who is clueless, but some how you did! lol Btw the carb is leaking alot of fuel at the choke, Dose it need to be rebuilt? can you still get rebuilt kits and how hard is it to rebuild? I havent work with a carb in a long time. Wasnt really good at it then but I try it. Oh Kirk I did get that shaft out of the lift. It took alot of heat but it came out. Also I got the steering fixed. The two set screws underneath were loose. Were getting there!!! Elon
thedaddycat Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 Elon, you'd be better off asking Dan about that machine. I got it home and parked it, hadn't done a thing other than see how that single belt blower would mount up to it. Good deal on the steering, I knew it was sloppy but the easy fixes are the best IMHO.... It just makes you feel a bit foolish when you've spent more than about five minutes trying to figure out something like a loose set screw...... LOL
jjouelle Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 I agree with the 64 Landlord 990314 with a 9hp Briggs. I have one that I'm almost done rebuilding (I will post pics when complete). I just had the engine rebuilt, and your right about the carburator leaking. Years ago I installed a small plastic valve in the fuel line to stop it.
ehertzfeld Posted October 31, 2003 Author Posted October 31, 2003 jjouelle, could you explain more of what you did to the carb? Im not sure what my next move is. I was kinda thinking that the float is stuck. No?
rokon2813 Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 Elon thats probly all it is. That carb didnt leak all summer when I ran it regular. Probly got dirt or rust in the float needle valve.
ehertzfeld Posted October 31, 2003 Author Posted October 31, 2003 Yeah thats what I was thinking. Ill have to take it off and try to get a kit for it. it's off so mite as well rebuild i. Were can I get a kit? Napa? Elon
