Spent a bit more time, fork done. Just the actuator to sort. I've tested the pulley at fixed settings, and manually pushed the fork with the engine running.

Here's a shot will get some better ones once the final detailing is done.

I've seen Bolens snow mobile hats, but never outdoor equipment hats. This one from the early 80's seem to show the newly designed Bolens QT16, and Iseki Bolens tractor, as wel as older ride-a-matics, walk behinds, snowblowers, and tillers. I got this from Canada

Greetings, I am new to this forum and I am looking for some help with my new (to me) Tiny Tiger. I have it running (thanks webhead for the new diaphragm) but now have discovered that my gas tank leaks. It appears to me that the panel of the gas tank that has the operating instructions on it was manufactured as a separate piece and put in place and sealed on the tank. Gas leaks around what I believe to be the seam of that panel. I was thinking I could remove the panel, reseal and reinstall. After closer examination, I think that is much easier said than done. I want to keep it as clean and original as possible so I am looking for wisdom from this forum on how to proceed. I have included pictures. Hope they show up. Thanks in advance for any help you folks can offer.

Superb job there, Gareth.

Hats off to you Alain; a good find.

dont hammer the starter, thats how you kill them

Once again stunning Gareth

nice find it looks like it hasnt been used

Want one , infact simply need one .That is a thing of beauty And has just gone straight to the top of my " have to have " wish list . Get a good named tank sealant kit , the simplest way unless there are through bolts on the alternator side of the tank simply pulling the plate onto a rubber seal ( bit hopeful ) . Other than that cover the sticker with a clear vinyl and fill the empty tank with boiling water to see if the sticker comes free . Assuming the tank is a 2 section affair and the plate where the sticker goes is stuck onto the aluminium casting , with the tank full to the brim with water try gently heating around the edge of the plate to burn off any epoxy / glue that would have been used to fix it there .A chefs blowlamp or micro torch is enough to burn epoxy glues . If it is just epoxy then the plate and tank would have to be cleaned with a stainless steel wire brush and rinsed using carb cleaner several times to give a good grease free surface for you to apply new epoxy to . Place the plate in position and put some weights on it over night to let it set .Leave it a 2 or 3 days or so before filling the tank with fuel to allow the epoxy to cure . Cut the vinyl applied over the sticker to shape and re-glue the sticker back on .

Four more heifers came home from their date with Hornsby McStiffy, MY 48 X was in a particularly good mood and made quite racket for sometime
