if I had it, id keep it. I worked on a friends 030, in nice shape like that one, was his dad's, rip. nfs. I wanted it, at least I got to run it...
Since the Power Products AH-47 engine is so common, can I take one from a David-Bradley and bolt it to my Indian 351D chassis?
I found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Produ...623?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cdb5430f7 on evilbay.
The Indian pumps only 70 psi. But, has spark.

Make sure it spins the right way. Gear drive are diffrent from dirrect drive.
Greg, wouldn't that be taken care of with the correct recoil?
Or am I just tired and not thinking straight this morning?
IIRC the recoil on the Wards/Hoffco 480 (PP AH-480 engine) could be assembled to rotate crank either direction. Wind pulley opposite, flop recoil spring, reposition ratchet dog etc. But, you would need to rotate the magneto pickup so you had the proper timing to run.
Just use the other mag.. .

I think the block and cranks would be the same. The timing is infinate adjustable so that would be the trick. Wrong side of TDC would be bad. Even of the crank end is diffrent swap the crank. I just did one on a toro snowblower. They are the younger cousin. Needle bearings are joyful.

Thanks Cliff.
I guess we will try to start him instead of tearing him down.
The Wards/Hoffco pumped 90 psi. Middle of normal for AH-480 I understand.

The Indian rumbled to life on a prime.
Going to do diaphragms and gaskets on the Tilly and flush the fuel line.
It's past Blondie's noise curfue, so we will let him beller in the morning maybe.

Thanks to Chainsawlady!
She sent me an original owner/operator manual. From what I'm reading in it and observing on the beast the pup has automatic oiling! Yikes!
Appears to be a variation on the pressurized tank system like Remingtons, Lombards and Roper.
And, per the owners book, the minimum compression for service is 55 psi!
Edit: Indian runs (sorta) and cuts (sorta). And, he has automatic chain oiler. Must be the De-Lux model.

that saw is pure class with pedegree!Here is a Solo Rex 125 I got from Germany. It Came from a Fire Department in a little village named Welchweiler of a 150 residents.
Has good spark and compression. I need to clean the carb and it should run again. I put the Bow bar on it.
Factory fire engine red.....lt must go faster...definately no port job needed on that saw....it may even be a sin! Thats a saw you look at and just have to accept you'll never own one
kinda leaves you sad really. l'm sure mr.bow takes care of her real good...she does look happy.

Looks good!
The 361 was introduced in 1965 so I think that makes it a Antique
