I decided to start a new thread so I can post photos etc. of bringing my new toy back to 100% again.
Last night, I yanked the carb. Having to work the throttle to keep it running just AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.
Please pardon the crappy cellphone photos. I have Canon pro gear, so there isn't any excuse. (The phone was in my pocket, and I was too busy cleaning things up)
The carb removed, grease and grime mostly gone.
The Vanguard carb.
And another view.
It idles nice now. I forgot to buy a new fuel filter, and it's good for about two run-ups before starving out, so a new filter ASAP. There's still a tinge of varnish stink in the shop when I walk in. Stupid bad gas can sure cause grief.
Coming soon, a new dashboard, maybe even tonight or this weekend if I get in the mood. (The weather's going to be crap anyway, so why not redo the dash?) Consider this photo to be the "before" as the new one will have matching switches, volt gauge and hours meter.
