[SEL] Titan-timely stop

[jbcast at charter.net]

Iv'e been visiting a throttle goeverned 8hp IH Titan for years, sometimes the owner was home. This was a project engine that got stale. It's in pieces , seems to be almost complete,  on original cart. He had the crank built up and put it back in the block, didn't do any more. Katrina took the roof off the shed and it's been exposed to the weather. Today I made a deal for it, swapped a smaller engine. I'll have to resleeve it, may need a fuel pump, not sure. The water pump, mixer,ignitor and rocker arm were there, as well as the remains of the screen cooler. This engine is on the way to the Desjardin, I'll take the big trailer and pick them both up during the holiday season if all goes well. I'll give an update when they're home.
