What's on your bench?

the customer says to put on a gas pump because fuel is leaking

Damn gas pumps can get like that sometimes. Looks like you better replace it with a new gas pump!

One nice thing about it being 16*F this morning the coal fired case heater was nice and warm.

Here's something I have on the bench that I thought folks would find interesting. This is a carburetor off of a mcculloch model 99 two man saw. The saw itself dates back to 1954. Quite an interesting design isn't it? Quite the progress we've made from this to modern carbs. I'm cleaning this one up and then will make a new diaphragm for it as getting a nos one is a nice wish. Also have some pitting in the diaphragm cover to deal with!

Who made the lower? Is it 80% or completed?

It's an aero precision completed lower.

 

[decableguy2000]

Aero makes some nice stuff.

I agree. Cost wise you can't beat it and I'm pleased with the fit and finish of these Gen 2's

I got this 6401 last summer or early fall for $20
Somehow it was missing some case gasket below the muffler and leaked oil through the case when ever it wasn’t upright.
New bearings and case gasket today.

Last night buddy Mike and I got started on his Troy Bilt 27 ton log splitter, new carb and intake gaskets are on order, OEM carb was $25 so not even worth opening up. Got old control valve removed and was starting to install fittings into new valve and unfortunately the threads in the new valve are smaller. Mike is going to pickup some adapter bushings at the local hydraulic shop this week along with a new filter and some fluid.

Nice! Is that going back together with a 7900/7910 top end?

No, I want to see how this runs first and keep my eye out for a the big top.

Not unusual. Heat from the muffler cooks it. It shrinks.....gets brittle....then gets gone.

Use some foil tape under the muffler.
