953 nut 55,194 #255 Posted December 5, 2018 Kevin, is there a diesel engine on the 1073? Need to put a new label on the choke cable. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,837 #256 Posted December 5, 2018 I had not seen that type of cable before, thought about filling it in, but thought it was kind of cool. It was on the Charger 12 when I got it 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the way, this engine sat outside for a few months this past summer. Maybe only 2 months. It was my primary mowing rig until June or so then the C-101 donated a transmission to Putt Putt to make the big show... then it was neglected for a while. It smokes more than I would expect, even with fresh oil and gas. I hope it cleans up after a bit of run time... reminds me of a diesel before it builds boost the way it chugs smoke! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,837 #264 Posted December 7, 2018 I’m happy to report that the last few times it has run (with fresh oil), the smoking habit is slowly going away! 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,837 #269 Posted December 7, 2018 cleaning up the tank for TIG welding... My plans were to trim the bottom corner on the front of the tank, but seeing the internals makes me want to just weld it and deal with it. I think I’ll take the flange down a bit for a better weld area. I’ve got to extract a broken bolt too... but it’s bed time! We were in the hospital in July with little Rylee having some kidney problems, we have an ultrasound checkup in the morning. See y’all’s project updates in 6 hrs! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dells68 7,498 #270 Posted December 7, 2018 Ok, given your fab skills, why not convert that rear bedroom into a toy hauler section. Then you can roll out the ole inflatable mattress at night and still have haulin room! Best of both worlds😂. Just sayin’!
