I own a 1968 yardman lawnbird 3270-0 and I put a new motor in it after it sat outside for 20 years and I got it running and I drove it for 3 seconds and it stopped driving and I can’t figure out is wrong and I can’t find parts anywhere
I believe it is a double belt that runs direct off the engine located either right behind the grill or a black plate directly below the hood/grill area. It is a simple tension style engagement setup that may need to be adjusted tighter or the belts replaced. This setup in turn drives the shaft going to the deck.
Good to know i dont have the only ornery ass squarebody still on the road. Mines the same way but a lttle worst. I cheated i drilled a hole in my airfilter top, put in a short valve stem pulled the needle out. So i just pop the hood grab the starting fluid out the fender remove the cap and a lil squirt. Wala
This was ppg paint (basecoat clear coat system) custom mixed to get as close as possible to the original color yellow. The white is a little brighter than it would have originally been.
Turn your Holley carb needles out a half turn and you should be good. Although I have a 10.2 Cleveland stroked to 427 and your flow sounds weak. Engine might be tired 😩
Totally incorrect way. Liable to short out on the footrest bracket. If you knew anything about a Ferrari 430 you would know the batter jump connection points were under the cover behind the Left hand seat!
You gave it a NEW life! So glad you are enjoying it as an original 6 cylinder car... The Mopar world can live without another poorly built Hot Rod... I have two Slant 6 vehicles as my daily drivers now for OVER 24 years.
