Worthless... but just plain cool

Recommended Posts

So... the Zagray Tractor Show / Flea market was a bust for us yesterday. @wallfish @Sparky @Retired Wrencher and others where gonna meet up. We all bailed when the weatherman guaranteed 100% we where doomed--they where wrong AGAIN.

 

Sparky and I decided to go this morning and walk around for the heck of it. I saw this genset and decided it was just cool enough to tinker with.

 

Took it home and it had a hung valve... fixed that and it started on a couple pulls.

Easy when you live so close! Glad you found stuff.

Nice! No smoke and it sounds like it's running nice and smooth'

A better muffler to silence that thing should be the shopping quest .

Believe or not the thing is pretty quiet as is! Hmmm gotta find out how far Sutton is and if my schedule is clear but maybe a roadtrip!

Definitely cool to have working where there is no power. Good pick-up Tony.
