Review of string trimmer reviews
Wife & kids like the 40v Ryobi I got. Now I don't need to rebuild a carb or replace a fuel line and start it for them to be able to "help" me with the yard work. -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Sweet. Thanks for the links Hobo. I also knew that the plugs dangling weren't in a compression environment and so just seeing them spark out in the open didn't mean that they'd do the same thing under pressure. Now, I just need to throw them out instead of leaving them on my workbench where... -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
The "S/E" marker is opposite the "0/2/0" indications as shown in your posted pic linked above. Same gap... -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Ok, so it was more than a week. Let me start by quoting George Strait: "I hate everything..." Got the spark tester, checked for "S/E" spark from coil - good. Through cap/rotor/wires to plug - good. Check timing, good. Still running on 1 cyl (#2). I can pull #s 1 & 3 (getting slightly bitten... -
Cornwell tools what's your thoughts and opinions of them?
I had a dealer hitting the motorcycle shops in the late 90s/early 2000s. I really like their ratchets, allen bits and most especially their double jointed ratcheting spline drive combination wrenches. -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Thanks Hobo, I've always just held the wire away from ground and cranked or pulled.... gotten bit a few times for my trouble. Ordered that one you linked to off that auction site. Looking forward to getting some answers next week! -

Verified dizzy rotation and firing order (in case some kids playing in the back 40 were messing with it). Will pull plugs and maybe cut new wires for 1&3 while I'm taking resistance readings, Before checking timing. -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
I'll get some shots - the cap's center carbon button was worn down almost flush and the rotor's spring steel contactor was tweaked. I replaced both with CNH parts - that's what it started on. -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Ok, update. Pulled the coil wire and checked spark - good, strong fat whitish spark. Got it to start (still haven't done anything with timing) ran slow, wouldn't rev, occasional backfiring, and pulled #3 wire - no difference to "idle". Pulled #1 same thing. Pulled #2 and it died - just as though... -
1/4" air hose fittings
I liked the Flexzilla ones, they're high flow but as others have mentioned - kinda pricey -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Anyone had a case of the intake manifold on these coming loose? I had a Jetta do this but never thought about checking the tractor's intake manifold torque... -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Not sure how timing could've been changed but definitely worth checking. -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
I should have said the coil positive post had 12v+ going to it. It has the stack exhaust so I pulled the muffler and put a straight pipe to verify, got just as hot. That's what made me think it was carb related. Nothing has been modified/changed with the dizzy, but maybe I need to verify... -
3000 gasser no start/poor running
Ok everyone, a bit of a bench racing/brainstorming session to help me track down my problem (you know, sitting in front of the computer sipping coffee instead of freezing in the snow actually working on the tractor). 1968 3 cylinder gas 3400. Less than 60 hours on a full rebuild a few years... -
Ford 3000 pressure relief valve
My suction line looked like a flute! Ended up welding & brazing it to cure the problem.
