I'll wager on it meaning the carburetors. The rotary ones seem dedicated to hiding any adjustments there might be. I wonder if, After through cleaning, you could roll the barrel in crazy glue and get a little bit of improvement in the gap? Some of you go-kart crowd folks may remember guys...

Yeah. I've got the half dozen small banners at the top of page. They aren't jumping or flipping/changing, So they get left alone. Those sticky floaters that move down a page as you scroll, get hit with the blocker if I plan to visit that site again. Love the ones that are just puff pieces...

Gotta starch & pre-form the filter shape somehow.

edit: forgot to say thanks to the everyone who keeps this place operational! Whenever things get too bad with my stuff? I'm guilty of pulling the thumb drive that boots this and just wiping it and going for a fresh install sometimes. Sometimes a web page can drop something on your device that...

Take gawk at the exhaust on those longtail boats even the two cylinder ones would have them. About 2:20 we get a fairly good view of the motor and exhaust Couldn't find many of the older vids now, but the two cylinders ones were just scary fast. 2:10 in this vid

I'm glad to see people have some input. No matter when they find a thread. Never know who of us may find it later when we need that info. Personally, I like for threads to say used when the info is about the same topic.

My favorite site F-up is when they drop the grayed out overlay that blocks the screen. As soon as you land on the site and they want yo to answer a survey about how nice their site is. Well you just threw a ham-handed script on me and so I haven't been able to look at anything else on your site...

I've seen compressors the size of a steam engine run with that sort of unloader setup. Considering the company, (they re-furbished old machinery too) those may well have been conversions from steam engines. They utilized the plumbing over several buildings it fed, to do the surge smoothing.

I don't know if the factories are using any sort of shielding gas surrounding the welding zones. That would be my first question about any differences. But that said, the blades from lennox boxes? I probably could not have picked them out from well done ones from the local Saw and Knife shop...

The Garbage Can Corn sounds good, but any chance of getting a sample of the galvanizing in with things?

My neighbor once had accumulated a few compressors while looking for the right things to build what he wanted. He did move them on afterwards though. For a while, We all said that he had OCD, "obsessive compressive disorder"

Speaking as someone who's a bit Bi-polar, I hope all is OK Wilhelm! That said, old but damaged furniture can make a pretty good fire. The salvage guy I've mentioned elsewhere, often had piles of it.

Don't forget the little washers and O-rings whilst you're in there. If there aren't any, I personally recommend getting some. Might have to look through some part lists for carburetors and try to find a size that fits. I have seen some adjusting screws that were cross drilled (in the threaded...

If you aren't losing much more than a little bit needed to get the ends dressed back square and clean, You're probably good. If you hit something that takes out ten inches worth of teeth...? Sucks if that happens with a blade on the 2nd cut or so. Blade will probably be too short for the saw...

I'm a little fond of snugging the chain tension and then clamping the bar (still mounted obviously) in the bench vise, near the nose. Helps a little with keeping the chatter under control too. As for file handle types? If it seems to affect how your hand grips (tendons and arthritis and such..)...
