tiller323 21 #1 Posted April 20, 2020 Hello y'all, I'm new here. Picked up my 82 C-85 a month or so ago and fell in love. I'm looking forward to picking your brains and learning more about these awesome machines! 7 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tiller323 21 #4 Posted April 20, 2020 A few non-engine related hiccups so far but nothing I couldn't fix with some all thread and a spring from the kids trampoline lol. That k181 is a surprise for sure and it's sounds soooo good. You shoulda seen all the old timers in my small town congregate to my yard the first time I fired it up! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,598 #12 Posted April 20, 2020 tiller323, welcome to the site , bought my c-85 new in 82, still have it , you will find all your questions answered here. if possible ad a related picture to it , to define your issue. recommend before any running issues start you get some SEAFOAM GAS TREATMENT, in your fuel, to clean up any problems. walmart has it ,looks like the past owner was on point with care , enjoy it , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
