The gaskets have to be thin for the oiler to be assembled right so the drip adjustment works OK. About 1/32 is enough. You can get them from Starbolt or Hit & Miss all the right size and ready to use.

I've been using the nitrile blend cork sheet for years to make oiler gaskets. McM offers a neoprene cork blend too, but it is not nearly as oil resistant as the nitrile blend. I use the 1/16" thick material, p/n 96165K32 which is a 12" x 36" sheet. You like the price too at $7.24. You'll do a LOT of oilers at that price and quantity!

Maybe I should get myself a bunch of Yahoo addresses and flood his mailbox with offers of vintage tractors and engines from across the world (all fictitious of course). I've answered him asking for details of his "company" and a copy of the company registration as well as a copy of his Identification Document and how he proposes to pay - just to get the thing going. Why would someone want to fly himself and his chief engineer halfway across Africa from Nigeria (I have no doubt that he is nowhere near Nigeria) to inspect (and buy) a few "common" vintage engines whose total value would be a fraction of the price of air tickets? I'm also pretty sure that he does not have a clue as to what these engines are or what they were used for. Keep the revs up (or down) Jerry Evans Near Johannesburg in Sunny South Africa. Tel.

There are a lot of things I don't know about this engine, I am not sure what the spring injection means. Probably it has a spring to pressurize the fuel and not a high pressure pump. It is to run on "From soon after the First World War the Carter brothers began working to develop an improved for of fuel injection system for their engines. Their work culminated in 1924 with the introduction of the ?Spring Injection? mechanism. Simple in both design and operation it allowed a measured amount of fuel to be pumped to the injection chamber at a precise moment and for sufficient time for the fuel to be fully burnt.

If the patent office has nothing on file like it they will likely get a patent.

There was a need it was figured out how to satisify the need and that was the end of that. So many years later someone has the initiative to patent it as their idea when they do the same.

Really worth the trip down even though we were rushed a little. We left home around 11.15pm and drove until 2.30am. Pulled up at a roadside resting place and laid the swags out for about a 4 hour sleep and then drove into Goldsmith at 8am. Not a great deal of activity until 10am but filled in times just getting our bearings on the layout etc and catching up with a couple of list members. Some really nice gear at this place. The sheds are mostly very well presented and a credit to all who have put in to get them that way. Weather was very kind to us also. Had to leave for home just after 3pm again in time for a late dinner. We will make it back again sometime.

The modern Swag is a lot more sophisticated. http://www.jollyswags.swag.com.au/cgi-bin/products.cgi?id=54832202336211178670907#Bogong http://www.brookswags.com/history.php You see no suit-cases in the wild and wide. Swags are the furniture of the bush, and neither man nor woman ventures out without one. Slung over the pack pony, hanging from the camel, or thrown into the back of the truck, with a quart-pot dangling from the strap, they stand for house and home and life's achievement. Ernestine Hill, "The Great Australian Loneliness" Melbourne 1940. In Australia, the traditional bedding for outdoor sleeping is the swag. These days it's a good quality, foam mattress inside a canvas cover that encloses both the bedding and sleeper. Traditionally blankets were used, but sleeping-bags are more practical, when it's very cold. The swag is rolled and fastened with straps. It's heavier and bulkier than a bivvy bag, but it's more comfortable and durable and is perfect for car-camping and other occasions when you don't have to carry it. In outback Australia's harsh conditions the swag's durability comes into its own.

I mentioned the crime in South Africa and how we have all been affected and how the rest of the world never gets to hear about it. Well my mother was attacked, beaten up and robbed in her house 2 nights ago. The steel security gate on one of the doors was broken out with a crowbar and then the glass door simply smashed with a rock. This was after midnight and she was asleep. The first she knew was when she was roughly pulled from her bed and beaten with a heavy stick and money demanded from her. She gave them what she had and between her and her little dog managed to fight them off and they fled. Thank goodness she was not raped as this is what these people usually do to humiliate the old people. She has a few bruises, a stab wound in the leg and a broken finger. She got off lightly. She's a tough "Old Cookie". My mother lives alone in her own house near the coast (about 350 miles from here). She is 86 years old. This is the second time that this has happened to her in the last 10 years and the third time in her life. She refused to allow my brother (who lives near me) or I to go down and visit her saying that she is fine and it would just be a waste of time and money. Fortunately we have friends living near her and they have confirmed that she is O.K. Our laws prohibit the mention of race in the reporting of crime but I feel I can safely say "The perpetrators were not White skinned". Once more, I apologise for the "Off Topic" post and do not wish to start a new thread with this one - just thought you should know - especially all those of you who responded "off list" last time. I appreciate it. Keep the revs up (or down) Jerry Evans Near Johannesburg in Sunny South Africa. Tel.

My son had a frightening, fortunately less serious in the outcome, encounter with a gang of young punks in New York City about 2 weeks ago. He took a few hits from rocks, bottles and fists, and his visiting sister and roommate in the apartment were terrified as Joe was trying to get in as he was attacked. The NYPD, when called, cheerily asked a few questions and basically told him "Have a nice day, and go back to Tennessee." I don't suppose it would be correct to mention that these young men on the streets of New York did not have white skins, either. That's not an issue for Joe, but the fact that his skin is white seemed to be an issue to them. He'd done nothing to provoke them, other than being there and being white.

Sometimes you find a politician with conviction of their beliefs. All to rare but once in a blue moon. If they all had the courage to speak up not as the vocal minority wants but as the silent majority believes and then walk the talk, politicians might be suprised at the favorable responce. Politicians should realize that the minority marches in protests the majority stays at home and goes to work.

I received many "Off list" replies and not one of them was negative. I passed all your good wishes on to my mother and, to say the least, she was overwhelmed. She was very "touched" to receive so many good wishes from people all over the world. (I read them all out to her). Today was "Mothers Day" and I was not able to spend it with her but telephoned her many times. Quite a few of you insisted that I should go and visit her and, although I respect your sentiments, this was just not possible and she also understood this. She was amazed that I had so many friends all over the world and I thank you for this. I think that I did reply to all the "off list" mails I received but if I did miss anyone then I apologise to you, it was not intentional. There were a lot of mails and I tried to personally reply to each one. Thanks guys - the SEL is the best - you are all great guys.

Its par for the course in the weatern world. Sadly, all the good ANY 'rehab' efforts will be a total waste of time. Now, IF the punishment was for real, only then would the number of offences reduce. I remember a story told me by an old friend who fled Russia after WW2. ANY crime was dealt with by a bullet. A wallet would stay where it lay in the road until the owner collected it. Anyone else touch it and they were guilty of theft, even if they were going to hand it in. Sure, the other swing of the pendulum but... If we dont get serious soon, no, the longer we leave it go, the closer we come to total anarchy. I see kids barely able to walk being pointed in the wrong direction re obeying the law, by the parents! NO punishment for this. Sad. Reg & Marg Ingold.

I have a model M 1.5 hp. It ran for several years, but has not run for a couple of years. Upon trying to start, I had no compression, so I pulled the head, crank bearing cap, and pulled the piston. Rings froze, so I replaced. After doing this it would not start, upon checking the timing marks per manual, the exhaust is 180 degrees off. My question is, did I do something I am missing, or could it have run before like this? I really hate the thought of pulling the fly wheels and side cover to check the timing marks. My second question is, can I pull the gib key driving the cam and turn it 180 degrees and replace the gib key?

I'm not advocating racism. It stinks, wherever it's practiced all over the world. And it sure is common. My son Joe had lots of other encounters with black folks in Brooklyn. They were nonthreatening, most of them friendly and pleasant. Some of them who called him "white boy" and "cracker" were concerned about his welfare when he had lost his coat and was going to work on cold mornings in T-shirts. As for Joe, some guy with more dollars than sense had given him a $20 to switch seats with him on a plane. He still had it in a pocket when he ran into a poor couple, the crying woman obviously pregnant, who said they'd missed the free dinner at a neighborhood church. He gave them the $20. Didn't mention their color. Didn't care. Said he felt like he was meant to have that money to help them. But like I said, that gang of young thugs wanted to bust his ass because he was white. Go figure. Why's he up there in New York? Trying to make a living, same as most folks. I think he's going to do right well at it, too. Takes a little while to get the pump primed for the cash flow. He's not starving, though. (He's been there all of two months.) He's getting flown to Paris next week for a two-day shoot (he's a model) that'll make him a pretty nice chunk of change, and a couple of Prada executives came to his agency Friday to interview him and his roommate for a show in Milan. That caused quite a stir at the agency, where they were expecting Miuccia Prada herself to show up. (I think she had called them to set it up.) Might as well have been the Queen coming. I figure the only way a couple of unknown new guys like these could have come to her attention was if she had been in the audience at the fashion show on April 30 to benefit the Parsons New School for Design at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York, in which both of them modeled. It was quite an affair with a lot of notable designers and other celebrities there. I figure Ms. Prada might've seen them, liked their looks and had them checked out. I sure hope it leads to a good deal for the boys, but just being approached about it is a terrific honor for them! Anyway, he's rational. He's got an opportunity to make good money, travel a lot, meet interesting people, and make contacts with folks who can help him in his art career later on. Pretty good deal when you're 19. :-) John Culp Bristol, Tennessee, USA From kimmell at verizon.net Sun May 13 20:19:37 2007 From: kimmell at verizon.net (Tony & Jackie) Date: Sun, 13 May 2007 22:19:37 -0500 Subject: [SEL] I'm back.... and PORTLAND!

Some of you guys will remember me as "Maytag92" from those days. I sort of lost interest in the old engine hobby after getting my drivers license in 1999 and the old car hobby took over. After owning about 70-80 cars and trucks in different states of repair (or deterioration, however you wanna look at it!) that hobby just took up too much space. Time to fall back on my REAL passion: old junk! I've grown a little in the last 8 years... I got married in 2003, had a daughter in 2005 and will have a son coming soon in early August! Got out of high-school and tried the college thing... it didn't last. After having a few different jobs over the years I'm now driving a semi for a local LTL freight company where I've been for the last 3 years. It's good to be back in the engine hobby. I had sold all my Maytags, Briggs and other engines that I had, and now I guess the only OLD engine I have is my antique homelite generator. Although, I have found a decent engine to get me back in the hobby: a 3hp IHC model-M. It's a low-tension overstrike engine and other than that I know nothing about it at this point. I am going to pick it up this Wednesday in Avon, IN. Avon, IN? Hell, that's only about 2 hours from PORTLAND! Might as well make a day of it and head to Portland after I pick up the M.

I also think that if you rely on the DOT for anything but writing tickets that you will be missing parts from your sparyer when you get home. My first suggestion is to make changes necessary to get the height below 13'6" which is the MIN clearance in most places. I also suggest that you check into some resources used by the trucking industry. Their may be some good websites to help you plan your route. I think that there are maps published specifically for truckers with clearance and weight restriction info. You can check the nearest truckstop for these maps. _________________________________________________________________ Make every IM count. Download Messenger and join the i?m Initiative now.

Only problem is that oil is not getting up to the rockers / valves. I've stripped the engine casing open and found that the oil pump is in good condition. The oil rises off the oil pump in a copper pipe then to the rear of the camshaft housing. From there another copper pipe takes the oil to the splash pan for the main bearings, the front timing gears and up to the rockers. Where this pipe comes out of the camshaft housing at the rear of the engine, it is loose and lets oil seep out. Is this a push-fit into the casting? Or am I missing a few parts? Any help would be appreciated! I can take pics if it would help.

The polarity is a question of what regulator you have, not of the starter-generator itself. The regulator is normally stamped for voltage and ground polarity, usually on the base; thus I'd expect you to find a 12P or 12V P (or N) stamped or sometimes printed. Printing is a sign of an aftermarket regulator; Delco used a good stamp so it couldn't wear off. Thus be careful when cleaning it looking for the mark, in case yours is printed. If a regulator is run at the wrong polarity it will work OK for a while, maybe quite a while. But the points do burn up quicker if run with reverse polarity. You can also tell the polarity of a regulator by looking at the points, but I don't remember how. Maybe someone can explain that to us. Polarity will not affect the direction of rotation, for either starting or for generating. B?

Those EMF spikes do an excellent job of adding permanent polarity to the laminations.

Stopped in Avon, IN to pick up my engine and then out to Portland. I think I forgot just how big the Portland Swap was. I must have walked 6-7 miles total when it was all said and done. Next year I might have to take a weeks vacation and stay a couple nights over there. Aside from the 3hp IHC M that I picked up on the way, 2 other toys followed me home. I picked up an old Swisher "Ride-King" 3-wheeled riding lawnmower. I used it as a butt-buggy for about an hour, but it was too slow and I figure my fat @$$ needs the exercise anyway! Sure did get some funny looks from people while I was riding it around. Don't know if it was because of the weird looking mower, or maybe because I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt when everyone else had jackets on. Wimps! Also picked up a barn fresh 2 1/4 hp Economy model-S. The Wico mag is gone, the piston skirt has a small break at the bottom and the head has a crack in it. But other than that it looks like it's all there, and it even has some compression. I'll try to get some pictures up soon. C-ya...

I know when the front lockouts went south on mine, there were at least 2, maybe 3 possible front axles on it and different lockouts. (it's 4 wheel drive and the automatic hubs busted, like they ALWAYS do) In other words just because it's a 19xx or a 20xx model year F250 V8 doesn't mean the axles will interchange.

There are heaps that specialise in F Truck parts. Its likely to be either a Ford 10 inch or a Dana axle. The dual and single axles are not interchangeable. I had a 79 250 with a Dana and my 91 and 97 350's had Ford 10 inch.

Mine has no V groove in the muffler side flywheel. It does have an 8" X 2-3/8" pulley on that side. Mine has no sub-base like yours has. Is that aluminum or unpainted steel? Mine has a different model Wico mag. It is bigger and has a different lead out. Mine doesn't have the gear cover like I think I see on your pix. The bore & stroke seems to be 3-5/8" X 4-1/2" I saw the holes where the engine tag belongs on top of the hopper. I need some kind of fuel tank. Right now all it has is a little B&S tank that looks kinda stupid. I was guessing the paint color is right because of all the nice pin stripping and decals. It makes me want to cry that whoever last painted this engine didn't prep it right.

I think it is a 1-1/2 hp engine anyway,,,, see below,,, It has been painted a nice dark green with name decals and pin stripping. The problem is the green was painted over yellow and not prepared right. The green is chipping off to show the ugly yellow in too many places. Is this engine supposed to be green? The PO said it was painted like that when he bought it. You ask which Sattley is it??? Well, The engine is missing it's tag if it ever had one,,,, Who built the Sattley engines? Since they are not listed in A.G.E.S. 1872 under Sattley I don't know where to look. This is a nice little open crank H&M with Wico spark plug fired engine. It has two solid flywheels that are 15-1/2" and have a 1-3/4" face. The flyweights are on the governor not the flywheel. The mag side flywheel has a little flip out crank. The PO had $400 on it, but blew it when he told me it had a problem. He said it ran great but it wouldn't lock out and miss. He, and another guy that "seemed" to know a lot, "showed" me where the whole governor was worn out and needed to be replaced so I made an offer. 8>)) Of course I had already turned the engine slowly and pulled a flyweight to make it lock out. Then I had held the flyweight and turned it further seeing the chipped edge of the lockout piece slip out of place. ,,,,,, Let's see here,,, A couple bolts, a little weld bead then go to the grinder and make a nice sharp edge,,,,, That engine just seemed to be begging me to give it a new home. 8>)) Alan Bowen Williamsburg, Michigan --------------------------------- Get the free Yahoo! toolbar and rest assured with the added security of spyware protection. _______________________________________________ SEL mailing list SEL at lists.stationary-engine.com http://www.stationary-engine.com/mailman/listinfo/sel Ron Frost Kersey, PA http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/AlbumIndex http://community.webshots.com/user/ron15846 " Collector of other peoples cultured merchandise " --------------------------------- Give spam the boot.

HP) is throttle controlled and the other (1? HP) is "hit - miss". The throttle controlled one has a kerosene mixer on it. Neither have a sub base. Both have Wico EKs. These are easy starting engines. Both need paint - neither have any original paint. I have seen other Sattleys and I have yet to see two that look alike.

My 1928 Hercules S is a 1 3/4hp H&M with a Wico EK. When I forget to flip that retard lever up it reminds me by kicking hard as I pull it over. Flip the lever up and start the engine. Flip it back down and she picks up a little attitude. I use this engine to power my two hole corn sheller. It's gov. spring is a wimp compared to the very stiff one I removed. My experience says The Wico Retard/Advance Lever Works Great. This engine will run with the lever up or down. It starts better with it up and runs better with it down. Yes, I could set my engine like you say and slow it way down. That wouldn't run my sheller too good though. 8>)) When I first started this barn fresh engine with that stiff spring it was a raging beast. The whole thing jumped into the air every time it fired and it hardly ever locked out. The challenge was shutting it down. There was no way to hold in that kill button on the Wico. I had to take several swipes at it to shut down the mixer needle. A nice weak spring and a little adjustment of the lockout parts and 15 minutes later I had a very nice running engine.

These are ideas written in a 1917 car repair book. Carbon can be manually removed by blunt scrapers screwdrivers with the shape edges removed need to gain access to do this by removing head etc. Carbon can be removed with an oxygen flame by burning it off. Carbon can be softened ie soaking valves in a solution prior to cleaning can be softened by kerosine,wood alcohol acetone or other carbon solvents In the book it read: a simple preventative of carbon deposits is to put a tablespoon full of kerosine in each cylinder through the compression relief cocks at the end of a days run while the engine is still hot.This softens up the carbon over night and when the moter is started the next day a large proportion of the carbon deposited the previous day will be blown out with the exhaust gases.

The engines are a copy of the 1.5hp F&J N re-rated to 2hp; they even use the same parts numbers! The Australian copies were made by Rosebery Engine Works in Sydney and were sold under many different names including: Buzacott, Champion, Rosebery, New Record, The Engine and many others.

Your unbelievable dedication to bringing us all phenomenal, almost weekly, show pictures complete with engine information is second to none. It is a true joy to come to work on Monday morning knowing there will almost always be a new webpage waiting to be enjoyed by all. This morning's example is no exception. WOW what great photos and a few surprises too. How about the little Ducati general purpose engines. Is this the same Ducati as the bike maker? What a neat little engine! The Alfa Laval lighting plant, what a neat piece! I really enjoyed the steamer pulling the spectator cart with. And it looks like the steamer saved the day with the big Tangye. Again, that you so much for your dedication and hard work so that we may all enjoy your shows world wide. We really do appreciate it!

There was heavy rain across much of the state late last week. Not enough to break the drought but enough to make the farmers smile a little and to fill all the water tanks. Cambelltown is not too far from the coast so it tends to get enough rain through the year. The downpours at the end of last week just made the ground really, really soft.

As you never asked nor give credit to my site, and your site is there for your profit YOU ARE TO REMOVE MY PAGES including photos Immediately I could be wrong but you seemed to have also lifted Rob Skinners page on Australs, I will let him comment on that. Cannot remember if I have met you "B" but you clearly don't understand stealing unless it is from you Original pages can be found as part of http://www.oldengine.org/members/kmorris/ Kerry Morris Lithgow NSW OZ PS. This topic has been around before with other peoples photos, Anyone can use any of my photos if you ask or give credit it pisses me off that someone can lift two total pages to back up his For Sale Site.

This is my first post to the list, and I apologize if my question is obvious, but I'm totally confused and Google has failed me. Both my father and I have new (old) Buzacott 3HP engines. His is an external tank model in somewhat sparse condition, while mine has a hopper with a fair amount of rust. There's a long way to go before either is anywhere near running condition, but one thing we have both done is take the spark plugs out and tried to find spares for me and non-rusty ones for him. Both plugs have a taper thread, and mine measures 0.805" to 0.840" major diameter at 14tpi. Dad's plug is marked Edison Albanitum 14-S and mine is a Champion A-25. The closest matching thread I can find is NPT 14tpi 0.840". I can't find any reference to the Edison plus at all, and the A-25 is mentioned to be 1/2" in several on-line references, which is way smaller than what I have here. Can some bright spark please shed some light on these plugs. Thanks, glen.

The plug you want is Champion 25 18mm tapered "copper plus" marine engine plug - they fit reasonably well. The thread isn't exact but it works. You can still get the right plug from a specialist supplier (at an engine show generally - go find Rally Badges or someone like that). Regards Paul Glen Harris wrote: > Hi, all.

I think you've got a common (for it's time) "Model T" spark plug - after the car which used them. The thread is standard one-half inch pipe thread. It's available new from at least two manufacturers, Champion and Autolite. In the U.S. they can be gotten (usually on order) from major auto parts stores. As a side note.......Most of these engines don't care what brand or heat range of plug they have as long as it's good enough to produce a spark under compression. Just stick a good plug in it and you'll be fine.

Message-ID: We had a big work night at the SIAM club. Many of you know that we have been working on a permanent foundation for our Venn Severin diesel engine for about 3 years. The foundation was poured last winter and last night a volunteer loader and operator appeared to move the engine from its trailer to the new foundation. You have to be extra careful when handling 12,000 lb of old iron. We had a great crew and there were ni big problems. While the installation will not be complete, we hope to run the engine at the Classic Iron show in Evansville, IN on June 8-10. _________________________________________________________________ Catch suspicious messages before you open them?with Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migration_HM_mini_protection_0507 From jlb94 at juno.com Tue May 22 07:58:34 2007 From: jlb94 at juno.com (Joseph L Betz) Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 10:58:34 -0400 Subject: [SEL] Portland treasures Message-ID: <20070522.105858.912.3.jlb94@juno.com> Thanks for mentioning that Pete, I found out early in the game to reduce the size of my pictures when posting them on a web site.

Well, it looks like it's supposed to work then! Any ideas why my advance lever doesn't work properly? I have a Wico Type No. 2 drive. I can get everything *precisely* set- exhaust open & close just right, run (advanced) timing=exactly 30 degrees per factory manual, but when I flip the lever to retard it, I would expect it to go from the 30 degrees BTDC to zero (TDC). Instead, the lever changes the timing about 90 degrees- it changes from 30 deg Before TDC to 60 degrees AFTER TDC. Maybe this is related- I have also noticed that adjusting the push rod/finger length a very small amount seemed to have a pretty big effect on timing. It was tricky to get the timing set just right. I had to nudge the adjustment/length literally a hair at a time. Is it a combination of magnet strength, drive spring strength, return spring strength, rocker arm wear, or latch-off adjusting screw that I'll never be able to figure out? I'm content to run the engine as-is, without using the lever, but it is quite puzzling now that others have spoken up that their lever works fine.

The date for the dinner this year is (Thurs.) August 23rd at 6:00 PM. As in past years the dinner will be at the Back 40 Junction in Decatur, IN. Decatur is about 25 miles north of Portland on Rt. 27. The Back 40 Junction is on the west side of Rt. 27 at the north end of town. The auction will follow the dinner. Start looking around for items to donate to the auction! Ellen said that the waitresses were looking forward to seeing Reg again this year, and when I told her that he would not be joining us she said that she thought it best not to tell them until the evening of the dinner. She then asked if that "Gene Dotson guy" ("The guy with the 'big Minnie' ") would be there. I didn't want to disappoint her twice in a row, so I said that I believed that he would. Gene, the ball is in your court! I told Ellen that I would contact her to provide a "head count" as time neared for the dinner. If you plan to join us please let me know so that I can provide a fairly good estimate to Ellen. I'm at rotigel at alltel.net Thanks, and I sure hope to see everyone at the dinner and auction! Dave PS, I'm trusting that Glenn will again "run" the auction and that we can count on Peg (once again) for record keeping!

Message-ID: Hiya Folks, Well, it's my turn to ask that caveat-loaded question. This grass cutting season I decided it was time to treat my wife to a new grass cutting machine. She's getting a Cub Cadet "zero turn radius" tractor which will be a LOT easier for her given the number of trees she has to cut around. Am I a peach or what? 8-)) This now puts me in the position of needing to get rid of the "surplus" tractor. And as a part of doing that I'd like to get a feel for what it's worth. Oddly enough, at various shows I've seen guys displaying restored ones so I know that there are SOME out there who would regard it as a "collectable" and not as simply a yard tool. What I have is a 1981 International Cub Cadet 782 Tractor with a Kohler Model KT17S 2 cyl 17 hp engine. It's a good strong runner and has a hydrostatic transmission, an electric front PTO, and a hydraulic lift for the mower deck or plow. It has new rubber on all four wheels, new wheel weights & chains, and a new battery. The two accessories are an International Model 50C 3-Spindle Mower Deck and an International Snow Blade. This web site has some info. http://www.ihcubcadet.com/BobsPage/ Any info that anyone can provide on what's a reasonable asking price would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

He lives on a pretty hilly lot and has an extra lot beside that he cuts. There is a "White" riding mower in my back yard he got for FREE. It has the wrong motor and the pulleys don't line up. He got it running and now he's talking about welding a pulley to the motor shaft. Not a good idea but necessity is the mother of invention. I think he's a bit disgusted with it. He did bring up the idea of buying one next year.

It is great for the shows...Just upload to a folder on my computer...Open one of the pics in irfanview, select batch resize/rename option. This process also allows me to copyright tag each photo at a set location (I can choose where based on pixel location). and then let it crank away thru all of the photos. I now take all photos at the highest res and resize/resample down for theweb. I keep the full size photos for further use if needed. If making a print, I use the full size photo...

As to SIAM, There is an auction that weekend which has several locally built engines on it that is not too far away. If I can preview the engines prior, I might leave an absentee bid with the auctioneer or another local collector....But I don't know yet. I also have a local 2 hour evening engine/tractor show in the Downtown of Downers Grove on Friday June 8. Something different for the locals....and it is only 5 blocks away from the house.

I think yours is the same as an 1810 except it has hydraulic deck lift--same as the difference between a 682 and a 782. I beleive yours has the Magnum series Kohler---most likely a M18. Much better engine than the KT17 in the 82's. Those had a tendency to let trash stick open the needle valve and flood the engine with gas while not running. If you didn't check the oil before you ran it next you wound up with a bill for a new engine---generally too much labor to pay to rebuild those. By the way, the size you have as well as one about the size (but of better quality) than a Murray were the 2 most popular ones sold around here.

Message-ID: "I have been wondering if it is practical disconnect the drain valve add a nylon stocking filter and try to use it as a parts cleaner." For sure, don't use a flammable solvent in it. The electrics aren't designed for that. I used one as a tool cleaner, using the regular dishwasher detergent. It is very effective on grease and oil, and on most paint as well. Eventually, depending on the quantities involved, the grit will tear up the pump. The good news is that pump repair kits are cheap, and straightforward to replace.

I built a frame out of coat hanger wire and stretched some very fine steel mesh screen over it. I set this screen over the bottom of the unit so it would filter the drain water before it ran through the pump. I then zip-tied a sock over the outlet hose and just draped it over the side of my utility sink. I used natural orange based degreaser detergent in it and never had any problems until the motor died from a failed bearing (unrelated).

I think that I will give the dish washer modification a try. After three years of messing around I finely got my George Miller & Son Waterloo engine blowing smoke. It was on a cement mixer so a lot of sand and grit went through it. I have replaced most of the pins and rebushed everything including the cylinder. I still have to have the piston regrooved, but now there is pretty good compression and she runs and sounds like a show engine. Now all I need to know is what color should I paint it. The engine & mixer was solid rust. The only paint I could find was behind some bolts which is best described as a vomit green that I would not even put on an axed Maytag. Any advice out there?

After much discussion I am taking over the project, to keep the register alive. There are still a lot of Australs out there not on the register and still a lot more information to be found and disseminated. I hope to compile all the information into a computer data-base over the next few months and will hopefully soon have it all up and running. This should allow me to provide maximum benefit for those interested in the Austral Oil Engines without me filling up all my free time trying to keep track of it all. The task makes me appreciate even more the work that others do maintaining engine registers and researching the history of the engines. It is important to make the information as available as possible for our fellow enthusiasts & I hope to do the Austral Register the justice it deserves.

The date for the dinner this year is (Thurs.) August 23rd at 6:00 PM. As in past years the dinner will be at the Back 40 Junction in Decatur, IN. Decatur is about 25 miles north of Portland on Rt. 27. The Back 40 Junction is on the west side of Rt. 27 at the north end of town. The auction will follow the dinner. Start looking around for items to donate to the auction! Ellen said that the waitresses were looking forward to seeing Reg again this year, and when I told her that he would not be joining us she said that she thought it best not to tell them until the evening of the dinner. She then asked if that "Gene Dotson guy" ("The guy with the 'big Minnie' ") would be there. I didn't want to disappoint her twice in a row, so I said that I believed that he would. Gene, the ball is in your court! I told Ellen that I would contact her to provide a "head count" as time neared for the dinner. If you plan to join us please let me know so that I can provide a fairly good estimate to Ellen. I'm at rotigel at alltel.net Thanks, and I sure hope to see everyone at the dinner and auction! Dave PS, I'm trusting that Glenn will again "run" the auction and that we can count on Peg (once again) for record keeping!

The gaskets have to be thin for the oiler to be assembled right so the drip adjustment works OK. About 1/32 is enough. You can get them from Starbolt or Hit & Miss all the right size and ready to use.

I've been using the nitrile blend cork sheet for years to make oiler gaskets. McM offers a neoprene cork blend too, but it is not nearly as oil resistant as the nitrile blend. I use the 1/16" thick material, p/n 96165K32 which is a 12" x 36" sheet. You like the price too at $7.24. You'll do a LOT of oilers at that price and quantity!

There are a lot of things I don't know about this engine, I am not sure what the spring injection means. Probably it has a spring to pressurize the fuel and not a high pressure pump. It is to run on "From soon after the First World War the Carter brothers began working to develop an improved for of fuel injection system for their engines. Their work culminated in 1924 with the introduction of the ?Spring Injection? mechanism. Simple in both design and operation it allowed a measured amount of fuel to be pumped to the injection chamber at a precise moment and for sufficient time for the fuel to be fully burnt. With close control of fuel consumed and an ability to start from cold and to run on practically any fuel, the company claimed the spring injection engine could successfully challenge steam in its last stronghold, the power station steam turbine. " Here is a picture of the mechanism. http://www.oldengine.org/members/blkstone/History8.htm They were designed to run on "residual oil" #2 Diesels will work well.

I noticed they say a "New Invention" These fellows are either mis informed or just simply unaware that this is not a new idea. You know how it is, something gets so old or forgotten and it becomes new again. I seen one used a long time ago. It was probably home made or maybe procured from one of the Rail Roads he used to work for knowing Grandpa. He must have lost it or loaned it out at one time or another cause I don't remember him using it in later years. Simple to make, like Dave says 7 or so links of chain, an odd number of links and a rod and wala a mixer. Grampa used it to stir his favorite roof coating, fibred aluminum roof paint. He didn't have a drill to power it but he did have a 1/2" electric drive impact and a socket If I remember right fit a large bolt welded to the end of the rod. I have his old Ingersol impact now. The center link of the chain was welded to the rod too if I remember right. It got real messy if you were not carefull but it worked. See ya all at Portland Swap!!

If the patent office has nothing on file like it they will likely get a patent. Many times things get invented and built just for ones own use or for use in their shop or business and thats likely what grandpas was. And folks just simply never do anything other then use them. There was a need it was figured out how to satisify the need and that was the end of that. So many years later someone has the initiative to patent it as their idea when they do the same. And truely they may very well have figured their version out themselves without ever knowing someone else already did it. This happens so many times. Patents are funny things. You can have an Iron clad patent but if you do not have the money to defend or enforce it then its not worth a darn.

Really worth the trip down even though we were rushed a little. We left home around 11.15pm and drove until 2.30am. Pulled up at a roadside resting place and laid the swags out for about a 4 hour sleep and then drove into Goldsmith at 8am. Not a great deal of activity until 10am but filled in times just getting our bearings on the layout etc and catching up with a couple of list members. Some really nice gear at this place. The sheds are mostly very well presented and a credit to all who have put in to get them that way. Weather was very kind to us also. Had to leave for home just after 3pm again in time for a late dinner. We will make it back again sometime.

The modern Swag is a lot more sophisticated. http://www.jollyswags.swag.com.au/cgi-bin/products.cgi?id=54832202336211178670907#Bogong http://www.brookswags.com/history.php You see no suit-cases in the wild and wide. Swags are the furniture of the bush, and neither man nor woman ventures out without one. Slung over the pack pony, hanging from the camel, or thrown into the back of the truck, with a quart-pot dangling from the strap, they stand for house and home and life's achievement. Ernestine Hill, "The Great Australian Loneliness" Melbourne 1940. In Australia, the traditional bedding for outdoor sleeping is the swag. These days it's a good quality, foam mattress inside a canvas cover that encloses both the bedding and sleeper. Traditionally blankets were used, but sleeping-bags are more practical, when it's very cold. The swag is rolled and fastened with straps. It's heavier and bulkier than a bivvy bag, but it's more comfortable and durable and is perfect for car-camping and other occasions when you don't have to carry it. In outback Australia's harsh conditions the swag's durability comes into its own.

I mentioned the crime in South Africa and how we have all been affected and how the rest of the world never gets to hear about it. Well my mother was attacked, beaten up and robbed in her house 2 nights ago. The steel security gate on one of the doors was broken out with a crowbar and then the glass door simply smashed with a rock. This was after midnight and she was asleep. The first she knew was when she was roughly pulled from her bed and beaten with a heavy stick and money demanded from her. She gave them what she had and between her and her little dog managed to fight them off and they fled. Thank goodness she was not raped as this is what these people usually do to humiliate the old people. She has a few bruises, a stab wound in the leg and a broken finger. She got off lightly. She's a tough "Old Cookie". My mother lives alone in her own house near the coast (about 350 miles from here). She is 86 years old. This is the second time that this has happened to her in the last 10 years and the third time in her life. She refused to allow my brother (who lives near me) or I to go down and visit her saying that she is fine and it would just be a waste of time and money. Fortunately we have friends living near her and they have confirmed that she is O.K. Our laws prohibit the mention of race in the reporting of crime but I feel I can safely say "The perpetrators were not White skinned". Once more, I apologise for the "Off Topic" post and do not wish to start a new thread with this one - just thought you should know - especially all those of you who responded "off list" last time. I appreciate it. Keep the revs up (or down) Jerry Evans Near Johannesburg in Sunny South Africa. Tel.

My son had a frightening, fortunately less serious in the outcome, encounter with a gang of young punks in New York City about 2 weeks ago. He took a few hits from rocks, bottles and fists, and his visiting sister and roommate in the apartment were terrified as Joe was trying to get in as he was attacked. The NYPD, when called, cheerily asked a few questions and basically told him "Have a nice day, and go back to Tennessee." I don't suppose it would be correct to mention that these young men on the streets of New York did not have white skins, either. That's not an issue for Joe, but the fact that his skin is white seemed to be an issue to them. He'd done nothing to provoke them, other than being there and being white.

Sometimes you find a politician with conviction of their beliefs. All to rare but once in a blue moon. If they all had the courage to speak up not as the vocal minority wants but as the silent majority believes and then walk the talk, politicians might be suprised at the favorable responce.

I received many "Off list" replies and not one of them was negative. I passed all your good wishes on to my mother and, to say the least, she was overwhelmed. She was very "touched" to receive so many good wishes from people all over the world. (I read them all out to her). Today was "Mothers Day" and I was not able to spend it with her but telephoned her many times. Quite a few of you insisted that I should go and visit her and, although I respect your sentiments, this was just not possible and she also understood this. She was amazed that I had so many friends all over the world and I thank you for this. I think that I did reply to all the "off list" mails I received but if I did miss anyone then I apologise to you, it was not intentional. There were a lot of mails and I tried to personally reply to each one. Thanks guys - the SEL is the best - you are all great guys.

Anyone else touch it and they were guilty of theft, even if they were going to hand it in. Sure, the other swing of the pendulum but... If we dont get serious soon, no, the longer we leave it go, the closer we come to total anarchy. I see kids barely able to walk being pointed in the wrong direction re obeying the law, by the parents! NO punishment for this. Sad. Reg & Marg Ingold.

I have a model M 1.5 hp. It ran for several years, but has not run for a couple of years. Upon trying to start, I had no compression, so I pulled the head, crank bearing cap, and pulled the piston. Rings froze, so I replaced. After doing this it would not start, upon checking the timing marks per manual, the exhaust is 180 degrees off. My question is, did I do something I am missing, or could it have run before like this? I really hate the thought of pulling the fly wheels and side cover to check the timing marks. My second question is, can I pull the gib key driving the cam and turn it 180 degrees and replace the gib key?

I'm not advocating racism. It stinks, wherever it's practiced all over the world. And it sure is common. My son Joe had lots of other encounters with black folks in Brooklyn. They were nonthreatening, most of them friendly and pleasant. Some of them who called him "white boy" and "cracker" were concerned about his welfare when he had lost his coat and was going to work on cold mornings in T-shirts. As for Joe, some guy with more dollars than sense had given him a $20 to switch seats with him on a plane. He still had it in a pocket when he ran into a poor couple, the crying woman obviously pregnant, who said they'd missed the free dinner at a neighborhood church. He gave them the $20. Didn't mention their color. Didn't care. Said he felt like he was meant to have that money to help them. But like I said, that gang of young thugs wanted to bust his ass because he was white. Go figure. Why's he up there in New York? Trying to make a living, same as most folks. I think he's going to do right well at it, too. Takes a little while to get the pump primed for the cash flow. He's not starving, though. (He's been there all of two months.) He's getting flown to Paris next week for a two-day shoot (he's a model) that'll make him a pretty nice chunk of change, and a couple of Prada executives came to his agency Friday to interview him and his roommate for a show in Milan. That caused quite a stir at the agency, where they were expecting Miuccia Prada herself to show up. (I think she had called them to set it up.) Might as well have been the Queen coming. I figure the only way a couple of unknown new guys like these could have come to her attention was if she had been in the audience at the fashion show on April 30 to benefit the Parsons New School for Design at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York, in which both of them modeled. It was quite an affair with a lot of notable designers and other celebrities there. I figure Ms. Prada might've seen them, liked their looks and had them checked out. I sure hope it leads to a good deal for the boys, but just being approached about it is a terrific honor for them! Anyway, he's rational. He's got an opportunity to make good money, travel a lot, meet interesting people, and make contacts with folks who can help him in his art career later on. Pretty good deal when you're 19. :-) John Culp Bristol, Tennessee, USA From kimmell at verizon.net Sun May 13 20:19:37 2007 From: kimmell at verizon.net (Tony & Jackie) Date: Sun, 13 May 2007 22:19:37 -0500 Subject: [SEL] I'm back.... and PORTLAND!

Some of you guys will remember me as "Maytag92" from those days. I sort of lost interest in the old engine hobby after getting my drivers license in 1999 and the old car hobby took over. After owning about 70-80 cars and trucks in different states of repair (or deterioration, however you wanna look at it!) that hobby just took up too much space. Time to fall back on my REAL passion: old junk! I've grown a little in the last 8 years... I got married in 2003, had a daughter in 2005 and will have a son coming soon in early August! Got out of high-school and tried the college thing... it didn't last. After having a few different jobs over the years I'm now driving a semi for a local LTL freight company where I've been for the last 3 years. It's good to be back in the engine hobby. I had sold all my Maytags, Briggs and other engines that I had, and now I guess the only OLD engine I have is my antique homelite generator. Although, I have found a decent engine to get me back in the hobby: a 3hp IHC model-M. It's a low-tension overstrike engine and other than that I know nothing about it at this point. I am going to pick it up this Wednesday in Avon, IN. Avon, IN? Hell, that's only about 2 hours from PORTLAND! Might as well make a day of it and head to Portland after I pick up the M. Maybe I can find a little hit-n-miss to go along with my newfound throttler ;-) Anyways, it's good to be back and I look forward to hearing from anyone who's been here long enough to remember me.

I also think that if you rely on the DOT for anything but writing tickets that you will be missing parts from your sparyer when you get home. My first suggestion is to make changes necessary to get the height below 13'6" which is the MIN clearance in most places. I also suggest that you check into some resources used by the trucking industry. Their may be some good websites to help you plan your route. I think that there are maps published specifically for truckers with clearance and weight restriction info. You can check the nearest truckstop for these maps. _________________________________________________________________ Make every IM count. Download Messenger and join the i?m Initiative now.

Only problem is that oil is not getting up to the rockers / valves. I've stripped the engine casing open and found that the oil pump is in good condition. The oil rises off the oil pump in a copper pipe then to the rear of the camshaft housing. From there another copper pipe takes the oil to the splash pan for the main bearings, the front timing gears and up to the rockers. Where this pipe comes out of the camshaft housing at the rear of the engine, it is loose and lets oil seep out. Is this a push-fit into the casting? Or am I missing a few parts? Any help would be appreciated! I can take pics if it would help.

I found a wiring diagram for a newer one with a similar setup; it's negative ground. I feel this one should be but the ground terminal is large (fitting the pos battery terminal) & the solenoid cable is too small for the positive post on the battery. No battery in it when I got it. I've got it running using the positive ground but haven't put a meter on it to see if it's charging. I'd prefer to use it with negative ground (unless it spins backward which I doubt it will); been so many years since I messed with a generator tho I've forgotten how to re-polarize one.

The polarity is a question of what regulator you have, not of the starter-generator itself. The regulator is normally stamped for voltage and ground polarity, usually on the base; thus I'd expect you to find a 12P or 12V P (or N) stamped or sometimes printed. Printing is a sign of an aftermarket regulator; Delco used a good stamp so it couldn't wear off. Thus be careful when cleaning it looking for the mark, in case yours is printed. If a regulator is run at the wrong polarity it will work OK for a while, maybe quite a while. But the points do burn up quicker if run with reverse polarity. You can also tell the polarity of a regulator by looking at the points, but I don't remember how. Maybe someone can explain that to us. Polarity will not affect the direction of rotation, for either starting or for generating. B?

Only problem is that oil is not getting up to the rockers / valves. I've stripped the engine casing open and found that the oil pump is in good condition. The oil rises off the oil pump in a copper pipe then to the rear of the camshaft housing. From there another copper pipe takes the oil to the splash pan for the main bearings, the front timing gears and up to the rockers. Where this pipe comes out of the camshaft housing at the rear of the engine, it is loose and lets oil seep out. Is this a push-fit into the casting?

I'll be on a schedule and travelling with another fellow who knows Eagles very well (the type of car I'm picking up) so can't make huge side trips, but if something would work......

Stopped in Avon, IN to pick up my engine and then out to Portland. I think I forgot just how big the Portland Swap was. I must have walked 6-7 miles total when it was all said and done. Next year I might have to take a weeks vacation and stay a couple nights over there. Aside from the 3hp IHC M that I picked up on the way, 2 other toys followed me home. I picked up an old Swisher "Ride-King" 3-wheeled riding lawnmower. I used it as a butt-buggy for about an hour, but it was too slow and I figure my fat @$$ needs the exercise anyway! Sure did get some funny looks from people while I was riding it around. Don't know if it was because of the weird looking mower, or maybe because I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt when everyone else had jackets on. Wimps! Also picked up a barn fresh 2 1/4 hp Economy model-S. The Wico mag is gone, the piston skirt has a small break at the bottom and the head has a crack in it. But other than that it looks like it's all there, and it even has some compression. I'll try to get some pictures up soon. C-ya...

I know when the front lockouts went south on mine, there were at least 2, maybe 3 possible front axles on it and different lockouts.

Mine has no V groove in the muffler side flywheel. It does have an 8" X 2-3/8" pulley on that side. Mine has no sub-base like yours has. Is that aluminum or unpainted steel? Mine has a different model Wico mag. It is bigger and has a different lead out. Mine doesn't have the gear cover like I think I see on your pix. The bore & stroke seems to be 3-5/8" X 4-1/2" I saw the holes where the engine tag belongs on top of the hopper. I need some kind of fuel tank. Right now all it has is a little B&S tank that looks kinda stupid. I was guessing the paint color is right because of all the nice pin stripping and decals. It makes me want to cry that whoever last painted this engine didn't prep it right.

My 1928 Hercules S is a 1 3/4hp H&M with a Wico EK. When I forget to flip that retard lever up it reminds me by kicking hard as I pull it over. Flip the lever up and start the engine. Flip it back down and she picks up a little attitude. I use this engine to power my two hole corn sheller. It's gov. spring is a wimp compared to the very stiff one I removed. My experience says The Wico Retard/Advance Lever Works Great. This engine will run with the lever up or down. It starts better with it up and runs better with it down. Yes, I could set my engine like you say and slow it way down. That wouldn't run my sheller too good though. 8>)) When I first started this barn fresh engine with that stiff spring it was a raging beast. The whole thing jumped into the air every time it fired and it hardly ever locked out. The challenge was shutting it down. There was no way to hold in that kill button on the Wico. I had to take several swipes at it to shut down the mixer needle. A nice weak spring and a little adjustment of the lockout parts and 15 minutes later I had a very nice running engine.

These are ideas written in a 1917 car repair book. Carbon can be manually removed by blunt scrapers screwdrivers with the shape edges removed need to gain access to do this by removing head etc. Carbon can be removed with an oxygen flame by burning it off. Carbon can be softened ie soaking valves in a solution prior to cleaning can be softened by kerosine,wood alcohol acetone or other carbon solvents In the book it read: a simple preventative of carbon deposits is to put a tablespoon full of kerosine in each cylinder through the compression relief cocks at the end of a days run while the engine is still hot.This softens up the carbon over night and when the moter is started the next day a large proportion of the carbon deposited the previous day will be blown out with the exhaust gases.

The Alfa Laval lighting plant, what a neat piece! I really enjoyed the steamer pulling the spectator cart with. And it looks like the steamer saved the day with the big Tangye. Again, that you so much for your dedication and hard work so that we may all enjoy your shows world wide. We really do appreciate it!

Cambelltown is not too far from the coast so it tends to get enough rain through the year. The downpours at the end of last week just made the ground really, really soft.

As you never asked nor give credit to my site, and your site is there for your profit YOU ARE TO REMOVE MY PAGES including photos Immediately I could be wrong but you seemed to have also lifted Rob Skinners page on Australs, I will let him comment on that.

This is my first post to the list, and I apologize if my question is obvious, but I'm totally confused and Google has failed me. Both my father and I have new (old) Buzacott 3HP engines. His is an external tank model in somewhat sparse condition, while mine has a hopper with a fair amount of rust. There's a long way to go before either is anywhere near running condition, but one thing we have both done is take the spark plugs out and tried to find spares for me and non-rusty ones for him. Both plugs have a taper thread, and mine measures 0.805" to 0.840" major diameter at 14tpi. Dad's plug is marked Edison Albanitum 14-S and mine is a Champion A-25. The closest matching thread I can find is NPT 14tpi 0.840".

I think you've got a common (for it's time) "Model T" spark plug - after the car which used them. The thread is standard one-half inch pipe thread. It's available new from at least two manufacturers, Champion and Autolite. In the U.S. they can be gotten (usually on order) from major auto parts stores. As a side note.......Most of these engines don't care what brand or heat range of plug they have as long as it's good enough to produce a spark under compression. Just stick a good plug in it and you'll be fine.

Message-ID: We had a big work night at the SIAM club. Many of you know that we have been working on a permanent foundation for our Venn Severin diesel engine for about 3 years. The foundation was poured last winter and last night a volunteer loader and operator appeared to move the engine from its trailer to the new foundation. You have to be extra careful when handling 12,000 lb of old iron. We had a great crew and there were ni big problems. While the installation will not be complete, we hope to run the engine at the Classic Iron show in Evansville, IN on June 8-10. _________________________________________________________________ Catch suspicious messages before you open them?with Windows Live Hotmail. http://imagine-windowslive.com/hotmail/?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGHM_migration_HM_mini_protection_0507 From jlb94 at juno.com Tue May 22 07:58:34 2007 From: jlb94 at juno.com (Joseph L Betz) Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 10:58:34 -0400 Subject: [SEL] Portland treasures Message-ID: <20070522.105858.912.3.jlb94@juno.com> Thanks for mentioning that Pete, I found out early in the game to reduce the size of my pictures when posting them on a web site.

Well, it looks like it's supposed to work then! Any ideas why my advance lever doesn't work properly? I have a Wico Type No. 2 drive. I can get everything *precisely* set- exhaust open & close just right, run (advanced) timing=exactly 30 degrees per factory manual, but when I flip the lever to retard it, I would expect it to go from the 30 degrees BTDC to zero (TDC). Instead, the lever changes the timing about 90 degrees- it changes from 30 deg Before TDC to 60 degrees AFTER TDC. Maybe this is related- I have also noticed that adjusting the push rod/finger length a very small amount seemed to have a pretty big effect on timing. It was tricky to get the timing set just right. I had to nudge the adjustment/length literally a hair at a time. Is it a combination of magnet strength, drive spring strength, return spring strength, rocker arm wear, or latch-off adjusting screw that I'll never be able to figure out? I'm content to run the engine as-is, without using the lever, but it is quite puzzling now that others have spoken up that their lever works fine.

The date for the dinner this year is (Thurs.) August 23rd at 6:00 PM. As in past years the dinner will be at the Back 40 Junction in Decatur, IN. Decatur is about 25 miles north of Portland on Rt. 27. The Back 40 Junction is on the west side of Rt. 27 at the north end of town. The auction will follow the dinner. Start looking around for items to donate to the auction! Ellen said that the waitresses were looking forward to seeing Reg again this year, and when I told her that he would not be joining us she said that she thought it best not to tell them until the evening of the dinner. She then asked if that "Gene Dotson guy" ("The guy with the 'big Minnie' ") would be there. I didn't want to disappoint her twice in a row, so I said that I believed that he would. Gene, the ball is in your court! I told Ellen that I would contact her to provide a "head count" as time neared for the dinner. If you plan to join us please let me know so that I can provide a fairly good estimate to Ellen. I'm at rotigel at alltel.net Thanks, and I sure hope to see everyone at the dinner and auction! Dave PS, I'm trusting that Glenn will again "run" the auction and that we can count on Peg (once again) for record keeping!

Message-ID: Hiya Folks, Well, it's my turn to ask that caveat-loaded question. This grass cutting season I decided it was time to treat my wife to a new grass cutting machine. She's getting a Cub Cadet "zero turn radius" tractor which will be a LOT easier for her given the number of trees she has to cut around. Am I a peach or what? 8-)) This now puts me in the position of needing to get rid of the "surplus" tractor. And as a part of doing that I'd like to get a feel for what it's worth. Oddly enough, at various shows I've seen guys displaying restored ones so I know that there are SOME out there who would regard it as a "collectable" and not as simply a yard tool. What I have is a 1981 International Cub Cadet 782 Tractor with a Kohler Model KT17S 2 cyl 17 hp engine. It's a good strong runner and has a hydrostatic transmission, an electric front PTO, and a hydraulic lift for the mower deck or plow. It has new rubber on all four wheels, new wheel weights & chains, and a new battery. The two accessories are an International Model 50C 3-Spindle Mower Deck and an International Snow Blade. This web site has some info. http://www.ihcubcadet.com/BobsPage/ Any info that anyone can provide on what's a reasonable asking price would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Message-ID: <20070524.115509.880.3.jlb94@juno.com> Hi Arnie, Not sure what you have but - My kid's looking for a lawn tractor to cut his grass. He lives on a pretty hilly lot and has an extra lot beside that he cuts. There is a "White" riding mower in my back yard he got for FREE. It has the wrong motor and the pulleys don't line up. He got it running and now he's talking about welding a pulley to the motor shaft. Not a good idea but necessity is the mother of invention. I think he's a bit disgusted with it. He did bring up the idea of buying one next year.

It is great for the shows...Just upload to a folder on my computer...Open one of the pics in irfanview, select batch resize/rename option. This process also allows me to copyright tag each photo at a set location (I can choose where based on pixel location). and then let it crank away thru all of the photos. I now take all photos at the highest res and resize/resample down for theweb. I keep the full size photos for further use if needed. If making a print, I use the full size photo...

I think yours is the same as an 1810 except it has hydraulic deck lift--same as the difference between a 682 and a 782. I beleive yours has the Magnum series Kohler---most likely a M18. Much better engine than the KT17 in the 82's. Those had a tendency to let trash stick open the needle valve and flood the engine with gas while not running. If you didn't check the oil before you ran it next you wound up with a bill for a new engine---generally too much labor to pay to rebuild those. By the way, the size you have as well as one about the size (but of better quality) than a Murray were the 2 most popular ones sold around here.

Message-ID: "I have been wondering if it is practical disconnect the drain valve add a nylon stocking filter and try to use it as a parts cleaner." For sure, don't use a flammable solvent in it. The electrics aren't designed for that. I used one as a tool cleaner, using the regular dishwasher detergent. It is very effective on grease and oil, and on most paint as well. Eventually, depending on the quantities involved, the grit will tear up the pump. The good news is that pump repair kits are cheap, and straightforward to replace.

I built a frame out of coat hanger wire and stretched some very fine steel mesh screen over it. I set this screen over the bottom of the unit so it would filter the drain water before it ran through the pump. I then zip-tied a sock over the outlet hose and just draped it over the side of my utility sink. I used natural orange based degreaser detergent in it and never had any problems until the motor died from a failed bearing (unrelated).

I think that I will give the dish washer modification a try. After three years of messing around I finely got my George Miller & Son Waterloo engine blowing smoke. It was on a cement mixer so a lot of sand and grit went through it. I have replaced most of the pins and rebushed everything including the cylinder. I still have to have the piston regrooved, but now there is pretty good compression and she runs and sounds like a show engine. Now all I need to know is what color should I paint it. The engine & mixer was solid rust. The only paint I could find was behind some bolts which is best described as a vomit green that I would not even put on an axed Maytag. Any advice out there?

After much discussion I am taking over the project, to keep the register alive. There are still a lot of Australs out there not on the register and still a lot more information to be found and disseminated. I hope to compile all the information into a computer data-base over the next few months and will hopefully soon have it all up and running. This should allow me to provide maximum benefit for those interested in the Austral Oil Engines without me filling up all my free time trying to keep track of it all. The task makes me appreciate even more the work that others do maintaining engine registers and researching the history of the engines. It is important to make the information as available as possible for our fellow enthusiasts & I hope to do the Austral Register the justice it deserves.

The date for the dinner this year is (Thurs.) August 23rd at 6:00 PM. As in past years the dinner will be at the Back 40 Junction in Decatur, IN. Decatur is about 25 miles north of Portland on Rt. 27. The Back 40 Junction is on the west side of Rt. 27 at the north end of town. The auction will follow the dinner. Start looking around for items to donate to the auction! Ellen said that the waitresses were looking forward to seeing Reg again this year, and when I told her that he would not be joining us she said that she thought it best not to tell them until the evening of the dinner. She then asked if that "Gene Dotson guy" ("The guy with the 'big Minnie' ") would be there. I didn't want to disappoint her twice in a row, so I said that I believed that he would. Gene, the ball is in your court! I told Ellen that I would contact her to provide a "head count" as time neared for the dinner. If you plan to join us please let me know so that I can provide a fairly good estimate to Ellen. I'm at rotigel at alltel.net Thanks, and I sure hope to see everyone at the dinner and auction! Dave PS, I'm trusting that Glenn will again "run" the auction and that we can count on Peg (once again) for record keeping!
