Not me either, nice looking usually costs more too. David

Neither of the pair of later style red chainsaws I bought had any surviving decals, as they were both identical I sold one of them to Paul & he had some decals made from the best image I could find at the time. Here are various images of the Chip-A-Saw & Paul Bunyan decals I have saved from either ePay listings or the web; Wallfish should be able to help with dimensions for the above Chip-A-Saw decal on the red chainsaw (it's from the ePay listing of the one he bought), I forgot to mention that this Paul Bunyan decal image came from another forum, Paul Bunyan chainsaw on forestryforum. David

No it isn't, it's a Type 215 engine with gearbox, I think the starter housing may have got swapped at some point, the Type 133 engine doesn't have a gearbox. David

Here are some more pictures of the mystery mini-bike, sorry @CNew just noticed I haven't taken a complete front view picture. No tools are required to separate the three parts, it has a spring loaded mechanism for the frame & the seat section just slides in. David

Both of the model motorbikes were in the US, found a pre-war Norton motorcycle that has some similarities to the second one. There are some ready made wedge shaped gas tanks for RC use, no idea if there is one big enough for the model motorbike. Example : https://www.ebay.com/itm/323751586744 David

There was a second one sold around the same time, this one made $1775, I haven't seen another scratch built model bike since these two. David

You would probably have a better chance of finding one on eBay with a saved search. David

Not sure either, but I've edited posts to fix broken web links before. I have all seven pictures from the ePay auction for this model, it doesn't look like a toy to me, more something a model engineer may have built, the copper parts are solid not tubes. If anyone was wondering it sold for $844. David

RC glow plugs use low voltage from a battery to heat the coil in the plug, not the high voltage from the magneto. It stopped raining long enough to take some earlier today, need to edit & upload them later, got to go out now. David

Also remove the redundant magneto parts and use them to fix another engine. David

I'm worried about the future of the local engine rally I go to, it was cancelled last year due to the field being flooded, another couple of bad years in a row could finish it off. David

Is that definitely a Type 133? They normally have the green (military) starter housing (oddly my minibike has one of these but is Type 215), the Type 133 wasn't supplied with a muffler as presumably they wanted a silencer instead. Here is NOS military Type 133 (not mine) the sealed packets contain the gas tank & air cleaner. Same here I can only work on my engines at home, the walls & girders at work have eyes now, so can't sneak anything in to keep me occupied while waiting for the CNC lathe to complete it's cycle. David

The carburetor operation is explained in detail in the manual; David

Another one here, plus pictures of the one from the linked site (& old forum); And forum member @Roving6 has one, no pictures; David

Good advice, I have a damaged generator here (mentioned in post #2) the governor malfunctioned causing the engine to rev to silly speeds, unfortunately in the process of trying to figure out why, the generator was damaged. The cause was an early all metal governor vane being bent out of shape, it rattled it's self out with vibration from the engine. I have since scanned & uploaded the later Tiny Tiger manual here (section 4, last one); I still have an earlier Tiny Tiger manual to upload in the future. Sounds like someone took the starter apart incorrectly by drilling out the rivet, you should never need to drill out the rivet as it only holds the starter reel bearing in place, the spring & starter cord can be serviced without removing the bearing. David

No, none of the Tiny Tiger alternators outputs are regulated, for the 110V (or 230V) output the governor is adjusted to give the correct voltage for the load. As has been mentioned in the other thread you posted in, a vehicle voltage regulator module could be used if you wanted a constant battery charging voltage. More information can be found in the Tiny Tiger manual I scanned & uploaded to this thread (last one in Section 4); David

OK thanks for checking, sometimes they did add dates and sometimes didn't. This is my later 13B Grow Gear trimmer, the handle is different but it has the same plastic gas tank. The earlier Paramount (re-branded Teles in the UK) hedge trimmers have a very similar gearbox & cutter assembly, but use the vertical round gas tank. David

The only mention of Type 150 is in the 1965 parts diagram & list. I've seen that style of gearbox & tank used on a hedge trimmer, but can't confirm that yours was from one. David

I save the shafts from any broken electronic gadgets I take apart, cassette players are just one example of something that may contain these, here is a random picture of a cassette player mechanism I've recycled, full of little parts that can disappear under the bench. Here is one I made earlier (from a cut down shaft) fitted to the carb diaphragm bowl. Model engineering shops would have suitable diameter rod too. David

Can the diaphragm disc not be straightened? Later carbs had a smaller flat disc glued to the diaphragm. I've used shafts taken out of broken cassette players to replace the roller and cut them down to fit. I thought Wallfish was looking for the diaphragm arm for you, give him a chance to look through his spares. David

We would never find anything that fits over here, everything is metric over here these days, thankfully mine still has the gas cap. David

You might not have seen it yet, but they changed most parts of this type of starter assembly in July 1973, I mentioned the redesign very briefly in the 13B recoil spring thread last year; https://myoldmachine.com/topic/4816-ohlsson-rice-recoil-spring-for-13b-engine-starter-rebuild-guide-post-9/ Note some parts are not interchangeable such as the starter reel & the housing for that reel. They could have kept inventory of both starter spring, but in business costs are reduced by removing similar/duplicated parts from the warehouse. David

Looks in very nice condition, it's the slightly less common & later large gas tank version. It's usually the little rod, ball bearing & U shaped spring that go missing. The engine on your Tiny Tiger dates from 1968, so unless the carb has been replaced it should use the standard arm & ball bearing check valve, those U shaped springs only have a slight bend & are usually reusable. Typical late 1960's carb diagram & parts list below; The plate? Is this the one attached to the cylinder? If it is someone has bent it to get the carb needle valve out without removing the carb from the engine. David

Nice, looks to be some service info between the very early one I have and the more common late 60's service folders. Is there a date on the engine manual? the 1961 version I have could be very similar to that one. Yes I have one and @pmackellow does too, but they are both later Series 13B powered versions. David

Please post some pictures of the carb so we can identify the type & advise what parts are missing. Also don't forget the clean out any old crumbly foam from the air cleaner/filter and check out the carb rebuild thread if you haven't already seen it. David
