    Roland, I found a # A-237418-S for Lead-Breaker Points. Wonder if it is the same? Kenny

    Timmy, My .02 on valve lapping on freshly cut seats and new valves. I opened up an NOS 16 hp short block last year and found that they were not lapped at all from the factory. If the valve doesn't sit perfectly concentric on the cut seat, it won't have a perfect seal. But I figure after...

    RE: Gates Green Belts. They have saved me on the weekend when only auto parts stores are open. Keep in mind though that they aren't available in fractional lengths, just whole inches. Most of the things I've worked on need a fractional length and when you try the next size lower, usually it is...

    David, Start with a fresh battery. It may be the problem.

    David K., I have the same tires on my 123 puller. I put them on 8.5 rims as I didn't have any 10.5's. I love the looks and I put the tire pressure down to about 3 psi and they bite great. Kenny

    John, Sounds like you have a dead cell in your battery. The alternator version AQS Series don't run well, if at all, with a bad battery. I'd check the voltage at the battery and you'll probably find it around 9 or so volts. Kenny

    Shanen, Looks like someone adapted a different model Walbro carb to your Cub. I'd remove it and get a Carter Model N size #26 from one of the sponsors. The bottom needle is for high speed mixture adjustment on the one you show in the photo. Top right is low speed mixture. Kenny

    Rick M., You are gonna have to put some springs under that seat or it's gonna be one bumpy ride.

    Jim Storma, Since it only calls out the .006/.008 in the manual, I would say that is ok. But remember it says "At Gage Diameter", which on K Series engines is the thrust face, just below the bottom oil ring land at 90 degrees to the piston pin. These pistons are oval so you have to measure in...

    Jim, I'm assuming that the .006/.008 spec. you speak of is the correct diametral clearance for the style of piston you are using. Kenny

    Jim, The clearance is right. Just make sure you measure the piston the correct way for the style of piston as it is shown in the Service Manual, then add .006 to get your minmimum Bore Diameter. Kenny

    Matt, Per Brian Millers Website: http://members.aol.com/pullingtractor/cylhead.htm The newest style head manufactured by Kohler is much like the previous one, but has the spark plug located directly over the exhaust valve. There are two reasons why Kohler did this: It prevents...

    Tom, Take off the clutch shield and make sure nothing is binding. Sometimes the release bearing's inner race will wear a groove in the driveshaft and hang up not allowing full release of the clutch. Also look at the front of the pedestal where the throwout arm pivots to make sure it hasn't...
