Came across those this morning, I thought "those look like the ones Bob mentioned", sure enough they were! At least the plier marks don't look too deep.... I'm working on a Pee Wee .020 head on a NEW throttled Pee Wee that has plier marks much worse than those, why plier marks on a new engine? Some people......

I love working on "trashed" engines.  There's a sense of satisfaction more so than with a brand new out of the box engine. I actually got this thing to run, and run well, while rattling the spare change in my pockets!

These actually make some of the Enya, Cox and other engines that I have bought in the past look good! They have Needle Valves............... and that case with crank...seller says .020.  

Berrymans, heat, disassembly.  The cure begins..................

Hi Don

.........I know, I know! I have many that "Went under the Pliers"........ I must have been excited, forgot to hit the "Pay Now" button until I noticed it this morning.  A first for me as I always "Pay Now".  

Finished the Karts this morning (below).  Getting ready to assemble Cox chainsaw #4...........To the peanut gallery..........Yeah, Why does anybody need four Cox Chainsaws? in sympathy.....still searching for the answer myself.  

Two days of cleaning up!  Berrymans. Simple Green, etc. etc.  Lot's of parts in these.  Cups are full of easily lots items.  Reeds courtsey of Leroy, there are four of them in there.  And that tiny Woodruff key!




Heat gun expedites removal and application of new Levent supplied label.



Kart....I love red, yellow, and black.  I built a new motor mount out of pine to replace the smashed original.  Added the slightly strange Wen Mac and glued the broken pieces.  Missing one foot pedal/rest.  I still say the tread is on backwards being an old tractor guy.  Rear end support is neat for starting.
