What's on your bench?

[Woodslasher]

Cool. Will you CNC that?

No, I’m poor. My last try was using a sawzall, grinder, and Dremel, but this time around I’ll just use an oxyacetylene torch.

8 years of constant abuse. Looks brand new on the inside. She gets a new coil, plug, chain brake and some light port work, then back to the front lines.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

I started tearing down my 670 Super, so far it needs a carb rebuild, fuel lines, a new clutch-side seal, a piston, and an oiler gear for it to be functional, but I’ll have to figure out a top cover later. One interesting thing I found is when I pulled the carb apart a Welch plug was just floating loose in there! A sharp hammer blow cured that, but I wonder how/why it got loose.

I dunno, it almost looks like it was never “popped” into place.

I would like to try my hand at square filing.

What model double bevel file could I get?

I’m having a difficult time putting the proper size or name of file in to look for one and order it.

just get a grinder

Do you use the xt carb?

 

[huskihl]

Do you use the xt carb?

That’s the plan, but only because it’s already there. If it’s hinky I’ll put a 390 carb on it.

Generac 7550EXL. Complaint was starts and dies. Diagnosed as a faulty oil pressure switch for the low oil pressure shutdown. It also needs a battery and a service.

Hey what brand batteries are best for these generators. The one that came with my generac never even lasted a year and wont hold a charge.
My BIL replaced his (not sure of brand) and it never lasted long either.

Got the little snowblower on the bench. Trying to figure out how to get the carb off to clean. The back pannel don't come off.
Nkt much room to run a wrench in ther.
May be easyer to pull the little motor out and get running on the bench.

Just go to a Walmart or something. Grab the cheapest battery. I'm assuming it's equivalent to a lawnmower. I get about 3 years from them.
