    If the bowl vent is plugged it will do that too.

    Here is a started guide for finding where a few of us are likely to be hanging out if we are there at the time you stop by.

    What's the exact fuel pump you're using?

    K181 Carb issues

    The boy went to mow tonight and couldn't get the engine to start. I took a look, and fuel was running out of the carb. So I took it apart, checked the float and needle, they are working at best I can tell. They pass every test I know, I can flip the carb over and not be able to blow through it, I can hold the float up and get no fuel, I can let go of the float and it drops, along with the needle. But as soon as I put the bowl on and prime the fuel system fuel starts running out of the carb. This is one that has had an electric pump installed. Aside from the pump overwhelming the float I'm at a loss.

    rear frame mounts for weights

    @76c12091520h has a nice trailer hitch too. I have a couple here. Highly recommended.
  12. I was cultivating like a madman when this popped off. Please tell me it's a relatively easy job to weld it back together. As usual any other for-warnings are appreciated too. Thanks!

    Thats cool, unfortunately tho because of our work schedule Thursday evening is when I’ll be on the way there, then hit the sack and Friday morning early will be at the show. I heard that Thursday is the best day for gettin what you want while gettin is good. The only thing I really want I already made plans with a dude to meet there, hoping he keeps his word. I have other small things on a list, mostly if I see something by sight.

    We normally set up in the inner loop. The first canopy on the right closest to the concessions stand. Position 1. Look for a big gray Coleman canopy and a tall ugly guy.

    Appreciate any guidance, or feedback: 70's B-80?

    Same with the hubs Another thing to look out for when you take the tranny off is the mounting plate for it, make sure it's not all cracked and everything

    A few hot beds of RS guys. Just a sample, it is where I go when I am looking for someone or something. Position 1, these guys are close to the con-sess-e-on stand and have a well seasoned knowledge of who's / who! Position 2, these guys like hanging out and know the trading ins and outs. Position 3, these boys are always working on a horse, of course.
  17. I can tell you already that your hitch pin is definitely gonna provide a good time. Soak/ heat, soak/ heat, repeat... Don't hit it very hard either.

    Truth be known, Thursday is one of the best pickin' days, if you are looking for something specific. It's also cool to see everyone lined up at 8:30am waiting for the gates to open at 9.
  19. Actually a commonly used style seat nowadays. I have two myself.

    Found a little time to get the frame further disassembled. Gonna drain it and decide what I need to do but really leaning towards a total rebuild cause it looks like a good time.

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Grafted a craftsman seat mount and new seat onto the 520H. Had to do a little chopping and massaging on Craftsman seat mount but just bolt on for the 520 so if somebody decides to give me a pristine 520 seat I can convert it back . Sure sets better than the busted up original one.

    P. S. Any tiny holes i might have missed. Also, I’m still at a loss about does the washer under the cylinder spring stop against the tiny shoulder on the pump shaft??

    I'll try to remember to wear mine. Look for the Red Square banners. And a trailer load of 5 gallon buckets.

    By all means. Maybe another for your spouse? My strategy is to work out in advance the things I’m looking for and my target $. I keep the list in my pocket. I started this at my second show after getting home from the first one and realizing I’d not remembered to look for something I really needed. One item on the list is my budget for unanticipated “oh I just gotta get this” purchases. At the last couple of shows I’ve brought stuff to sell--that’s been hit and miss. As for finding Red Square folk, my sense is that about 20% of the crowd are members, maybe more, but only a few follow the forum closely. Quite a few folks bring a 10x10 popup tent, lawn chairs, and personal refreshments and set up shop along the parade loop (the food concession does a great job at fair prices, though). I suspect you’ll want to spend most of your time on the move, however, as there is a lot to see. For the last two shows I’ve made and worn a “Handy Don” name tag but very few others wear one--ya just have to be friendly and start a conversation!
