Hey guys.. It actually runs.. I checked before we started it and the cylinder was scored to hell...
The cylinder has scoring but not above the top edge of the transfer ports.. I think it will still work.. But I'm looking for replacements..
The flywheel was rusted onto the crank.
The oil cover has a crack and dent in it
The oil pump is seized
Fuel tank is full of lacquer and gunk
The carburetor shafts are stuck
It was converted to electronic and missing points and felt
The right side of crankcase has a hole in it
Various missing screws and crazy looking bolts on it
Muffler sounds clogged with something
Missing starter cover the wires are all hardened and cracking
Bearings rusted to crankshaft.
Fan is missing fins
clutch shoes are cooked with on friction material left.
Good stuff is
The handle housing is in good shape
The PTO parts look serviceable
But maybe have to use a newer clutch if I can't reuse this one
Chain guides are good, need replating
the conn rod bearings have no rust and still fit snug.. I think I can work with this, this one will probably take a bit longer, im gonna try some different things with this one. i think ill try my hand at zinc chromating
does anybody know if zinc is resistant to heat.. thinking about instead of painting the muffler
i could zinc plate it and it would be far more corrosion resistant
also zinc chromating the bolts. i can see some have just a bit of left over gold color on them
then ill go back and plate the ones from the 08S.
