AMC RULES 37,130 #55 Posted November 3, 2020 Sure this is the one I would go with in your tanks diameter if considering a replacement. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,856 #57 Posted November 3, 2020 Here’s a little video update from last night... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,856 #58 Posted November 5, 2020 I received news today that Steiner Tractor has shipped the package FedEx, which I’d assume will arrive tomorrow given that it’s just a couple hours east of me. I’m so looking forward to the day this fires up! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,856 #59 Posted November 9, 2020 I got new parts from Steiner Tractor! I replaced just the condenser and points, cleaned up the magneto cap and I have spark! It seems the plug wire has seen better days so I’ll see about finding a better suited wire around here. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Essentially a big boxed frame with an engine out back and a big bar to steer it. I think it is mainly for cultivating? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,815 #73 Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) Ordered a carb kit from Steiners for pumkin farmer's Massey Kev and got some of those cow tail candies too... pretty tasty actually! You sound like a kid on Christmas morning when you got it going. There is something about a 65 year old motor coming to life! Guessing you checked the oil!?!?!
