I purchased a burned 873, Plan a has been to find parts and fix it, if plan a fails plan b is to sell the parts and parts from the machine, I have been fortunate enough to find a parts machine that matches my serial no series and generation, Ive bought almost all of the plastic and rubber items from the machine, but still lacking a rear wire harness, plastic engine cover and air cleaner. to name just a few. The parts machine does vary somewhat in the hand controls, the parts machine has what appears to be more functions. Id like to know if any of you have made your own wire harness? also any tips on where I can locate some cheap parts, the guy selling me stuff has been way reasonable. Ive spent 400.00 sofar, but have a huge chunk of what was missing. Also the engine is the Deutz 2011, The crank turns freely and timing belt is intact, but need to find out how to do a compression test.
