I’m a bit ahead of you. The one I’m
working on is a really nice motor.
There is hardly a scratch in any of the
aluminum parts and they really are
cleaning up nicely. Even the prop.
But it does have issues. The coil of
course but I have done it already. The
gas tank had some dents. These look to
be intentional rather than accidental to
me. I have gotten the majority of them
out. The tank is still a little low in that
corner and will need a little filler.
I also need one of the water tubes and the
flywheel has been over tightened and it
has cracks. May explain the dents in
the tank. Once I get the gas tank done I’m
kind of stuck till April when I will be able
to get the parts I need. Gives you a chance
to catch up,
A soldering gun is all I needed to get the rivets
out of the serial# tag to remove it.
Here are the links to repairing the coil and
some information on the timers.
