Simplicity 7116 Questions

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey everyone,

I have a question for you guys.  I recently acquired a Simplicity Sovereign 7116 with a 48" deck, snowblower, tiller, and leaf blower attachment.  The motor was rebuilt 1 1/2 years ago.  All receipts from the work and all manuals and lots of extra belts were included.  The tractor doesn't run, but the engine does turn over and there is compression.  I haven't had a chance to dive into it yet, but I'm guessing it's either the starter, solenoid, or some wiring.

Overall, the tractor and implements are in great shape and all appear to be working.  I've never really dealt much with Simplicity tractors, so I was wondering, assuming I get it running and everything in fact does work, what could I sell it for?  And, is there much demand for these

Thanks guys,
As always, your advice is greatly appreciated.

	More information is needed for us to accutately assist you. You say the engine turns over, I assume you are turning the crank by hand. There are safety switches on these, one for neutral, PTO, and possibly a seat switch. If all the switches are bypassed, then the next step would be to grab your voltmeter or test light and start checking voltages in the electrical system. If you sell all as a lot, then I would say everything would fit into the $6-800 range, based on condition.
