Leaking crank case seals can cause fuel mixture adjustment problems. Runs good, then doesn't, then adjust, then the same thing happens again, then adjust again and it happens again. That's most likely bad case seals. Leaking air around the carb gaskets can do that too.

We can always add a shim ring if the compressibility properties are more squishable than anticipated. The next guy who finds 4 rings is gonna have to figure out what's going on. (see what I did there?) Or do they offer that same material in .035 or .036?

I need another chainsaw like a hole in the head. Probably have about 10 or more and don't even burn wood. Actually need to get rid of some stuff and or get going on the many projects stacked up on the list.

I thought you just wanted to clean it up?

Did ya get it? And by asking "is it of interest"? Does that mean you want to sell it?

Are you stating the word "squish" isn't the right term?

Yes that's an O&R saw and there's plenty of interest in it here. I know I'm interested.

To power that scooter you would need to gear it down quite a bit. We used to have other members from Australia on the old forum so there must be some engines available there. Finding an engine with a gearbox will give some reduction plus it will have a centrifugal clutch. That would help immensely getting everything powered in a smaller package. Get that thing going and and race 50 meters and time it. That way @JUST O&R can finally get on that Tobey Cart and race you!

Nice Let us know how you make out. These won't need to be a total precision cut down to the .001 so cutting them with your new tool should be fine. The biggest hurdle will be the head lining up correctly when tight so the thickness is more critical. If that material has some "squish" to it then it probably doesn't matter as much.

Yup! This is the one. Please let me know if you need a diaphragm to go with it. It's missing a spark plug but was running when I parked it.

OK, You get the Tiny Tigers, not the good stuff

For some reason these coils seem bullet proof and very rarely see a bad one unless it's physically damaged. Haven't had too many bad condensers either but there's been a couple.

I'd take that Tobey for a ride, and just keep on go'n Probably road rash within 10ft though

Not sure the exact year can be nailed down. That appears to me to be a mid to late 60s engine? It's not early because of the coil on there but not late because of the pull handle and cooling baffle. I don't know the date of any of mine and have about 60-70, I think. Lost count a while ago. Clean her up and use the file drawing below to identify parts you need.

What, no pics?

They look good! Please cut 25 of each. Thank you! Never took mine outta the box and probably should've tried it. Was waiting to see what Terry's $500 cutter does.

Finally found the last item I'm aware of for the collection. These Lewis winches were made for Homelite and these blue ones seem to be super rare. It's the same winch as the common orange units but the blue Homelite paint makes it a better fit for the collection. Just need the small drive belt which the seller forgot to add in the box but is sending. Probably find a nicer power head to switch this on to as well.

I know you guys had to see this and I did throw my hat in the ring but it went for more than I wanted for. 1st one I ever saw so it's a unique item. Did one of you guys score this?

with yellow Poka Dots please! Looks good and thanks again. I'll need to paint'm silver hammered tone like the base is. I have a newer style recoil decal , Gold color with the patent #s on the right side, probably could use pics for the older styles and just pick one of them since there are a couple versions. So one newer style, one older style both in silver if that's good. If you want to send me both the recoil & 1HP decal, I'll ask about doing some entire set ups with recoil, bird, HP for 3/4 and 1 and the stop switch.

Enjoyed talking with you too. My wife is the same way. I just tell her she needs a hobby then she won't care. LoL Looks great! And thanks again for your help. And you might as well just send me that little NOS engine too!

The engine is centered to the existing mounting holes in the base so both of those pieces are the same, just mirrored. And what you have pictured looks good! The front mount sits centered to the mount holes but the holes for the gear box will need to be offset to the left, just like the shaft is in the engine you have pictured. That;s the same gear box. I can drill the holes for the gear box mount The engine mount will be able to slide in the mount so I will line up the pulley before drilling holes to mount the gear box plate. There's also some adjustment on the shaft for the pulley. I can call you about 8 pm if that works

Will this work Terry? there's 3 total pieces. Let me know if anything doesn't make sense. Do you have a gearbox with the same shaft position? Away from the engine? A base mount tank doesn't really work unless there's a plate made to mount to the base and wide enough for the tank mount holes.

Waiting for gaskets. Just mess'n with Clint. I'll try and get you some info for that compressor to mount the engine

That stuff is cheap, I can just order some and have it sent directly to Eric if that's better. I'm in for at least 25 sets, how much of that material do you have?

Me too. 2 if i had the gaskets sent to Clint
