    I sure do appreciate it. I will keep in touch. I hope im not coming off as a dummy here im just trying to gather info. The common things to try/check havent netted many results one way or the other. Im probably overlooking something simple

    Yes it is easy to do. The hole is already in the block for the points push rod If it is a problem with your breakerless coil I have one you can have.

    I don't know the specifics of the internal circuitry of the trigger but when transistors and triacs are involved anything's possible to mess up the signal and possibly the spark timing by a few degrees. I've seen electronics to some wild stuff that made no sense.

    Umbrella Photos

    mae posted a topic in Tools and Equipment

    Following up on my post yesterday. Found the umbrella. Really nice condition. Don’t believe I ever opened it before. From the mid 1980’s, a gift from Wheelhorse. My office was in their HQ but I worked for the finance company who floorplanned all their dealers. Not looking to sell it but if and when will certainly offer it here. Great forum! Still using my 1996 314-H. The Best Buy ever! Got one before Toro tossed the quality units out the door.

    I may be wrong, but I thought the 14 and 16 are the same.

    Isn't the crank and rod on the 12 and 14 the same, just the bore size is different? I thought the 12 and 14 were sorta interchangeable and the 16 was the odd duck.

    If it ends up being the breakerless being bad there is a way to convert over to the points and condenser style of ignition.

    Ya thats too much pressure,it is overcoming the float valve I believe.

    You cannot adjust the timing on a breakerless system. The trigger is only adjustable in and out from the flywheel and even the manual indicates that gap isn't critical. also there is no way it can change based on heat...
  17. lahren68
    I guess one thing that i was just thinking, is there a way to verify ignition timing on these breakerless engines? If theres a potential of the timing being too advanced?

    Be very interesting to see how the spark holds up when it is acting up.

    Water Damage Challenges at home

    Wurutucy replied to davem1111's topic in non tractor related discussion

    I’ve dealt with sudden water leaks too. One thing that helped me track the source was running a hose on different parts of the exterior to see where it seeped in. Did you ever figure out if it came from the roof, siding, or a window? Curious what your fix ended up being and if it held up during later storms.

    Im leaning towards something leaning the mixture out. Whats puzzling me is the slight amount of choke at operating temp will make it run correctly but it will sput and sputter when the engine is cold if you use any choke after its running. Maybe im chasing another symptom and not the root cause with this one.

    I turned down some aluminum roundstock in my lathe and bushed the throttle shaft thinking that could be the issue

    Check for play in the throttle shaft. Air leaking in around shaft can cause poor idle.

    The blue color on the intake stem is concerning. I'm thinking you have intermittent gremlins in you ignition trigger throwing the timing off. Or there is something loose in the muffler not letting the exhaust gasses escape and overheating that valve and leaning out the mixture.

    K321 and K341 are the same. K301 is different. Only the 14 and 16 are interchangeable.

    I am normally NOT a fan of any of those "Mechanic in a Can" quick fixes, but the B12 is the exception.

    I replaced a bunch of upper ball joints on the trio - the Falcon, Mustang and Fairlanes. On a side note - my son bought a 35th Aniversary model - nothing but annoying issues with it. We called it the "Mustake"

    This type of tester is more accurate in diagnosing weak spark as opposed to the neon bulb type

    Once my headgasket show up ill reassemble it and check it with a spark tester after letting it run and report back
