C-101plowerpower

My next job was the engine. These early Gems were fitted with J.A.P's from the factory. The factory records confirmed that this
was still the original one so I have done my best to save what I can. When purchased it was seized solid. A full strip down followed and I
couldn't see any reason as to why it was? Anyway it now turns freely. The engine had already been bored to + 060" and was in a bad state.
Its only the cylinder and piston that I have changed on the internals the rest is original. A lot of elbow grease followed and I don't think it came
up to bad.

I was now up to the end of April. A forklift proved a god send assisting with lining up the engine and gearbox. As you've probably seen
in the other photos the gearbox flange was broken. As cast is hard to successfully weld, after recommendations I used J-B Weld to
bond it in place. Then after rubbing down and prepping a respray followed. For the first time in nearly a month I actually felt like I was
actually making some progress.

Wheels refitted, these again came off G 367. The locating plates have been blacked. These early
Gems even used different retaining springs to the later ones. As luck would have it I had enough
to make up a full set in my store. The air filter was also overhauled. Boy didn't the brass plate take
some work to clean  up!

The main frame required a lot of work as it was suffering from heavy rust. After wire brushing down and treating with rust killer it was built
up with weld, ground back and skimmed in filler. This took about a week to do. The fuel tank was actually in quite reasonable condition
and only needed a light skim of filler. The intresting thing is it has the outlets welded on the other side to normal meaning that it has to be
fitted back to front. Was this deliberate or a cock up in the factory? that due to shortage of materials means it had to be sent out as it was?

Today we went to the mechanisk musuem. The owners come from a Town or two over and moved to denmark about 10 years ago to start a museum. Luck would have it they also had a show this weekend. Anyway here's some photo's

i will be picking it up saturday

what's there to see in this photo?

Paul do you have any close up pictures of the bottle so i can have a look for some over here and show my uncle who does crop spraying, maybe he recognises the bottle to be of a specific brand and type

Been a bit rubbish on posts recently. Looked up in the workshop and saw the hand cut out and painted enamel sign Ewan made me...
 
 

Going to collect this Tonight. 
Unsure what model it is. 
Apparently has a briggs and stratton engine 
 
Something for little man to grow into... 
 
Any info on one off these?  And will wheel horse rear wheels fit? 

well after a 5 hr drive, and some interesting moments loading and unloading from the back of a disco! this is now parked in my garden. at a first glance its a little daunting, but the engine turns over and the carb and tank is spotless. full set of wheel weights and the gearbox appears to work but the clutch and brake pedals are seized solid, the brake pads have rusted to the drum and the clutch linkage and steering rods are gone, thottle and choke cables have had it, the slot hitch is seized solid and lift rod has rusted though as has the battery tray! however it was love at first sight and she will be saved  ! if anyones got a kohler 141 workshop manual they could email me i would be eternally grateful, and if anyones got any of the bits missing that were listed above and are willing to part company please let me know  cheers 
 

IT RUNS!!!!
kind of
it starts easy but its a pig to keep running at the moment since the carb isn't supplying enough fuel.
i've had it running stationairy for 10 seconds before the compression suddenly went.
