Wow.....nice clean unit. If the price was right I would bring that home too! Although it may have to sit outside. :lol:

That's the problem Dave, I have an OCD'ism about leaving good equipment outside and I'm out of indoor storage. So..........really, I've got to stop bringing them home. Unless I run across another really good original condition narrow frame. Or an Original, Diesel, FEL equipped, ..................................

Just need a few ideas, this one and a 102 have, got to where they both crank up easy enough but both start backfiring after they are warmed up. I replaced the head gasket on the 102 and still doing the same so not going to go that route on the 104. Any ideas what to check next or change out both have original K241 engines and both seem in very good condition other than this issue.

How are the points? Did you change them to get them going? Check them and there gap to adjust timing.

I'll try that Joe, I adjusted them but not sure if I got it right. Also,while we're on the subject, what are the chances the push rod to the points needs replacing and what should it measure as far as overall length? I'm guessing the points should be set around maybe .025??

Very nice IH!

Check out that Operator's Manual for point settings, and basic trouble shooting!

Got it running pretty good now just need to get the throttle/idle set and she's in great shape. A new kohler polnts and condenser set did the trick! (and the correct point gap setting)
