    Empty Rad?

    I go to top up the radiator on my '53 50 and find that everything I pour in pours right out the bottom. I have only run it for 10-15 min at a time for a long while so no Idea when this happened. My question: can I run it safely for 15-20 min to get it to where I can repair it? Advice...

    JD 50 Exhaust Manifold

    Did not think of brazing. Might work great. But not in my skill set... Thanks!

    JD 50 Exhaust Manifold

    Good advice! I will stay away from the new manifold. I believe it leads to alcohol. Thanks! Chuck

    Interesting! Never noticed black fluid but I'll check that out when I get to the JD (120 miles away just now). Thanks!

    Gas leaking into crankcase

    Problem here is the manual shutoff was removed when the auto shutoff was installed...

    Gas leaking into crankcase

    When my JD 50 sits for a while i get gas in the crankcase. I figure the problem is in the carb - maybe float sticking(?). The gas line has an updated auto-shutoff installed by a top 2-banger mechanic (I used to shut the gas off by hand). All suggestions welcome! Thanks!
