this is part 2 on this old snow mobile engine that was pulled out of a falling down barn in southern NH . the fuel system was missing parts on the 1st video and now we have them. lets wrench on it some more and see how we make out.
Good Sunday morning from Western Montana! It’s always the carbs that give me palpitations about these old engines. I have lots of old Mac chainsaws that I’m forever trying to get the carbs right. This vid gave me PTSD 😂
Good morning all from Fairfax Virginia just outside of Washington DC. Wow, Mustie! you find the coolest stuff dumpster diving, yard sale shopping, and pulling out of old structures. Around here, it's hard to find that kind of stuff. You rarely see it and not for little or no money if you do.
I think once you sort an air filter and exhaust system for it, it will run a lot smoother, as the 2 strokes tend to need some back-pressure at low RPM to maintain crankcase pressure, but otherwise it's been a fun and informative set of Videos, I hope we will get to see what you decide to put it on to power it, great video, love that you bring the dead back to life. Sundays wouldn't be the same without Musties medling lol
he said it there was a preview of it in his last vid... the last vid was of a yard vacuum... guess I'll have to look and see what was in the background. Won't be able to sleep otherwise.
I’ve had horrible luck with those aftermarket carb kits. I basically use the gaskets only and will clean up and reuse all the brass adjusters and jets from the original as you said. They’ve got real bad the last few years. Those Tillotson carbs always threw me for a loop getting the stack up and orientation correct.
Hi D. Great revival!! Go figure the carb kit was right but not. I just knew that you would get it running great!! Another awesome video!! Hope you have a great week!! Thanks again for sharing!! Can’t wait to see it put in and running!!😊😊😊Darren
For being junk, the 2 I had in Scorpions sure seemed to hold up extremely well and those little 400 cc Scorpions would outrun every Ski-Doo 440 or 440 John Deere I went up against.
There are replacement welsh plugs in the carb kit. Under those plugs it exposes small ports that transfer fuel into the carb throat. They are easy to replace.
Love to see you work on youre projects and the way you explain what you are doing.... you would be a great teacher....😉😁👍..... Greetsz from Holland/Friesland..max......👍😊😉😎🤗
Those carburetors were junk. Seems like even if you could get them working they wouldn't stay consistent. We always tried to find an appropriate sized slide carb to replace them with.
