Subject: [SEL] Maytay Engine - Need Help


Folks a friend of mine purchased a set of the Maytag Tractor Plans from me 
and built this tractor:

He has run it in several parades and said it does great EXCEPT each time he 
hits a pothole, or a good bump, such as going over a railroad track, the 
engine dies. He can easily restart it and it runs fine until he hits another 
bump.

He wanted me to ask the gang on the SEL if they had any ideas of what was 
happening (probably associated with the ball seat) and what solutions, if 
any, you might have.

Thanks for the help.

Paul
