Along time apart

Post by knattrass »

Yesterday we spent six hours putting the engine back together. we got so close to firing it up but ran out of light.

Today we fire it right up and she purred like kitten. had a problem with the throttle on the carb. it seems that it wants to be always open? can some help out on if that is right. ran nice and we are so happy that it ran and works right. finally it all can back together. :D

Good Deal! Check the springs and cable for the throttle. Glad it runs!

Knattrass, is that where you've been all this time ? Well, what better place than working on an M series vehicle. Sounds real good when it runs and you know it's the product of your labor. All the best with it. Your L.I.E. comrad

Feels great doesn't it. I felt that way when I put the head back on mine.
