RE: Attempting gas conversion
Thanks Ya'll,
I have started the conversion. The Power Point presentation helped out greatly. The only difference that I found between the 45cc and 33cc engines in the presentation is that there is a threaded piece that is on the end of the shaft where it was to be cut off. I assume it is part of the bar oiler. A little Dremel tool action and it was history. It didn't seem to want to unscrew or slide off the threads that hold the clutch on.
This one has the carb mounted on the engine. Guess I lucked out. I'm going to have the flywheel milled by someone with the right tools (just so it balances out). I have already cut the case and shaft.
What do you think about polishing the engine? Will that adversely affect anything?
I was skeptical at first. A good engine for under $100...? Now I must get on the ball and find a plane to compliment it. Anyone have some plans for 80" and up stick style plane?
Thanks guys!
