    It's pretty clean actually there ha. I don't mind dirt and manure just don't want chemicals in the hands all the time and I work on vehicles constantly. Plus my finger tips crack if I get chemicals on them.

    Good to hear! I think the carb is TSX-241B original. I ordered a kit from YT and it's on the way. Here is a pic of the carb brass plate: What loom? Do I have a loom? I have all the wires marked 1-4 when I took them off so I was just going to follow that for the install of the new ones...

    Gas tank cleaning: 1951 Ford 8N

    When I looked into my gas tank that had sat for over 20 years, I didn't see any significant rust, so I wasn't concerned about rust so much as just cleaning it. Your situation sounds different. Berryman's B-12 a strong solvent-based fuel-system cleaner used to dissolve old gasoline varnish...

    OK. I was just doing it on each one until it stopped climbing. I thought that was acceptable.

    Good idea. I'll record the oil pressure gauge tomorrow. I haven't looked at it. I'm also going to crank it a little longer tomorrow on each repetition. No gas. The hood is off. No coolant. I drained that out the lower hose today and ordered new hoses and a 180 degree thermostat along with...

    Oh, I see thanks. I didn't notice the link before. Funny thing is I haven't installed or used my bench grinder and have been at this house 3 years. I just bought a stand for it at HF and plan on installing it soon so that I can use it for mower blades because I bought a Wheel Horse from the...
