Good evening folks. Very impressed with all the work I've read about on keeping these beauties running. First off.. here's the engine! I am under the impression I can get a replacement diaphragm/gasket and intend to do so provided they're still available? That aside, the needle screw valve on my engine carburetor was sheared from overtightening by small fingers! Is there a suitable replacement for these? (I will attach a photo when possible) I was surprised to find the original air filter foam intact and healthy albeit a little darkened. (See small bag below right of tank) The previous owner had cherished this engine for many a hike in the mountains. The care shows, it's just unfortunate that small fingers damaged some things. I have repaired the starter which had been over-pulled and jammed. Fairly confident compression is good, are replacement spark plugs easy to source? I also wondered if there is anyone with knowledge of coil/condenser repair? These parts of the engine have developed a fault and is choosing not to spark. Will check more closely tomorrow to be certain but I fear internal breakdown of the coil. Is it possible to get new bolts/screws for these at all? Did I mention the engine&generator have travelled to the UK with me, all the way from the Philippines? Thanks in advance. Cheers VID_78680702_145534_379.mp4

Having a clear out in one of my sheds and came across a dozer blade frame, what you see is what you get £50

I've worn these same style boots since the 1980s in and after Military service and I cant bear to try anything else. These are super comfortable, dry quick, and are very cool. Only drawback is for those that get cold feet during the winter, with the steel toes, canvas, and leather they are not a cold weather boot, but here in Oklahoma for me they are more than warm enough. These are sold on eBay for 148.00 shipped, but I try to find a better deal. I came across these Belleville Marine Corps issue ST-550s with quick release laces for 39.00 new, no box, but never used, 12.00 shipping. If you ever want a good boot, Belleville makes many different types of boots, and they are really tough and long lasting

Harry had a minter lawn bug a while back which run No doubt he sold it
