I sold all the spares. Sorry Austin. What all do they need between the two of them?

He’s gonna earn this stuff

We’ll sit down soon and make a parts list.

LOL.
Your welcome Austin. [emoji16]

For anyone who does not know Austin, he is a fine young man. I met him this year at CT GTG and I am glad I did.
It is so nice to see good people these days. He is courteous, respectable, and polite.
His parents did a fine job raising him if I do say so...[emoji106][emoji631][emoji482]

Its alright, man. They both need 6 bolt cases, EL-48 carbs, a top end and much more

All Im gonna dump int it is a cheapy $85.00 top end and an EL-48 carb from amazon. And maybe seal the cases with a strong liquid sealer

that 562 runs like a dream now!! I put a base gasket in it and the leaning out problem went away. Made at least 15 cuts with it yesterday and It didn't start acting funny at all. Held and idle and hot starting was way easier. Thanks again for that tip @RI Chevy

Excellent Austin.
Dan, @paragonbuilder told me that one. Lol

When saw was idling and you sprayed the carb cleaner did the idle get faster and speed up?

Awesome... now gut the muffler completely (helps with heat not just performance), clean up cylinder... use a 40$ meteor piston and put some of the foil Kevin mentioned under the muffler. I wouldn’t waste $ on the carb if it works well. Maybe put a fresh carb kit in it and new fuel line/filter. Also copy that slot the new ones have in top cover for heat management. At least this is what I’d do.

Nope. It stayed the same

 

[RI Chevy]

Hmmmm. Then how did you know it was the base gasket?
I thought if it was bad or leaking then the spray exploits that leak causing idle to fluctuate. That's how you know its bad. ‍

 

[ZukiRyder400]

It didn't do anything with the gasket but without the gasket the idle sped up

 

[ZukiRyder400]

Sorry... didn't mean to confuse you Jeff. I brain fart sometimes

I had another top cover that had a slit in it from my uncle. And would foil tape work as well? thats all we have at the moment But i'm gonna muff mod that 562 when I get home!!!!

 

[RI Chevy]

OK...lol
I'm still confused, but that's ok.
Glad you got it working so the 562 is usable.
Now go and cut some wood and make some money. Lol

 

[ZukiRyder400]

I’m not sure. Does it say how heat resistant it is on the tape?

 

[ZukiRyder400]

Does it say how heat resistant it is on the tape?

I dont know Ill have to check when I get home.
