Fifty20One, Thanks for the video link.
Looks like my 39 Sea King 2.4 hp was
one "tweaked" by Carl as mine has the
so named "tickler" on the carb to lift the
poppet valve off the seat.
The Thor compared in the video must be ealier
than the 39 Sea King shown, as there lots of
differences in the exhaust to cylinder mounting,
water pump, etc.
Regarding the Thor, is a "five piece" crankshaft
welded together? Are normal crankshafts
really a one piece forging? Guess I need to pay
more attention!
I got the cylinder back on mine today, and now
that it actually has piston rings, it has compression!
Not sure how much yet as I thought I better let
my gasket cement cure a day.
Anyone know what the correct 18 mm spark plug for these models?
Thanks!
Prepare to be boarded!
