  1. Well I’m still stumped. Here’s what I’ve been able to decipher on the carburetor. The bottom of the bowl is stamped Walbro. It also looks to be a LMB model.  Bad news is the model number looks to have been a double stamp which makes the numbers nearly impossible to make out clearly.  It looks like it could be a 181 or 191 maybe.  There are also two other numbers stamped on the opposite side, 1175 and 1014.


  2. Thanks!  Well, this certainly isn’t normal for me. I came into these last three machines kind of all at one time which never seems to happen.  I try to look at eBay and the local Craigslist in the evenings for a little bit.  Now that I have a couple in the stable it’s time to start cleaning them up and working on them.

     

    This out board looks like the original color was a bright almost metallic blue, definitely a marine color.

    Much better picture of the Clinton K-150 Outboard in the 1975 brochure here;

    David,

       Very nice find by the way on the Clinton outboard brochure. Those photos are really nice!

     

    Thanks,

    Clint


  3. I wasn’t able to get the price I wanted but it’s hard to pass it up when it’s in your hands. It does have some damage on the mount but I probably won’t actually use this for its intended purpose. The camo paint is a let down, would be much better if it had the original paint scheme. Turns out this is actually an outboard produced by Clinton and its a model K-150.  My eye must be getting sharper. I was just scrolling through Craigslist and the recoil starter is what caught my attention - I knew it had to be a 13B or 20A...

  4. Yes, I was quite pleased to find this. I had hoped some day I might come across one and I did unexpectedly. It looks to be complete. I might put it all back together today just for grins if I get some time.  The fuel vent is all cracked and pieces of plastic are missing so it’s junk and I’ll have to figure out an alternative.

     

    I agree, seems like more of these would pop up given how common the newer mini tillers seem to be.


  5. I couldn’t find much info on the GH Grimm drill. I’d love to see some photos - feel free to PM me.

    Found a 620RPM KING Drillgine (re-branded) in the Maple Syrup Digest (Jan 1964) on page 15;

    It seems the Sugar Bush Supplies Company had much smaller ads than competitor Geo. H. Soule Co. Inc.

     Finally had a chance to look this up. Nice find David - I don’t know how you find this kind of info.... Always very much appreciated.


  6. Cool generator!  

     

    I was able to find small rubber grommets at my local hardware store - like an Ace Hardware that fit for the Governor vane.  I’ve had to make the little roller piece as well like Wallfish said - I think I found some rod/wire at a Hobby shop that was the right diameter.

     

    FYI- I think if you look up O&R Chainsaw right now on eBay you’ll find the recoil cup. These don’t come up often and I thought about buying it myself but you are in need of it now for this project and I would just keep it for use as a future spare.  Let me know if decide not to buy it.
