Re: K 241 running badly
Thanks guys. I should probably just take the carb off and give it a good cleaning.... and then adjust. Tom you might be on to something about the load. I'm recalling him saying not enough power...so he moved choke to first notch. That's probably when the black soot was occuring Actually similar to w...

Re: K 241 running badly
Im just trying to think.... does that have the thick cardboard gasket to the block? Probably a dab of blue locker on those studs? On another topic....do you ever have to readjust your carb settings from winter to summer? I don't remember doing that on the 127, but my dad's 6 horse snowblower....we t...

Re: Ham and CB chatter
Wow that does sound totaled. Sorry!
It's crazy what we can get caught up in collecting. My parents are getting ready to downsize hopefully next year. He would say...he had a train layout. Well....that would not be accurate... wish me luck!

Nice save ken! I can't believe I never thought of that trailer hitch combo....that is great!
As for the "light oil"...you better clarify cause big Mike will be under his hood looking for the light oil dipstick when his turn signal lever gets sticky.

Re: 550 lb Capacity Hydraulic Tractor Lift
That's sounds pretty neat. Some pictures of the unit would be nice. Those kinds of things can be great for cleaning and maintenance but when you start talking about the mower deck maintenance sometimes they can get in the way if it has a big platform. Deck cleaning is best when you pick up from one ...
