Sand blasting! Powder coating! Carb rebuild! Fuel pump diaphragm rejuvenated! Amazing editing! You made my day Sir! Thank you for all your hard work and creating these great works.
Worked on K series for a long time. Biggest NO NO is touching the oil dipper. When you take the pan off, make sure piston is at TDC. This protects the dipper. Pounding on the dipper Starts stress fractures on the dipper where it meets the rod. What happens is the rotation of the crank causes side load on the dipper. As time goes by the stress on the dipper causes it to eventually break off and the engine locks up from oil starvation. This may happen in 1 hour to 300 hours. It's a ticking timebomb waiting to implode.
You need another motor to play with? I have a complete super old one out of a 1900's barn that you have to wrap a rope around the pulley to start. Pre enclosed spring return pull start.
I would've liked seeing the item on the camshaft. Was it a compression release? Or is that the governor? My 1973 K-301 has lots of hours on it and it's got too much compression for the "starter/generator" to turn it over until l choke it enough to flood it. Then it will roll over and start right up. Admittedly the starter part of the starter/ generator is probly weak, even though l took it to an old school generator shop to have it rebuilt, and my battery is just the garden tractor 250 CCA tiny battery, and l use straight 30W oil due to a fair amount of blow-by. Adding it all up though makes me wonder if it should hav a comp release of somekind. It's in a 1973 IH Cub Kadet 129 Hydrostatic drive lawn tractor that l bought used so there's no way of knowing how it was run befor, buy for the last 25 years or so, it's been mowing an acre, rototillimg a 50' X 100' garden and although l have a 3' snow blower for it I've never used it. (but l want to) Everything's old old old so l have closed the point gap way down to about 0.005" to back the spark timing up a little and l never run it fast. I'm not in a hurry at 72, I'd rather it go the distance for me. When I'm worm food somebody else can work it over from stem to gudgeon, and put it in a parade, but l just want to use it. It's gonna need mower deck spindle bearings, they're getting loud and they tax the engine a little more than l remember from a long time ago. OK, I'm done. Thanks for walking right thru it, l knew what would be involved but was special to see it. I go by Moparbens on Yahoo's email service if someone would care to chat. Thanks again for the fine vid.

It is good you mentioned this, I hope I did not hurt this oil dipper, I will keep an eye on this one.
Amazing restoration, the refurbished pump and carb was excellent 😊
Thank you very much!
Incredible work as always. Such a great restoration 👍👍
Thank you very much!
Incredible work on that engine! Like your channel! Cheers!😀👍🛠️
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota AJ

It's a great thing you chose white because from my point of view, it looks more classic that way.😊
I think so too!
Gorgeous!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Merci c est excellent un travail de profesionel❤
So beautiful colors are engine is tan.
Handling and dipping your bare hands in all those chemicals is raising my anxiety.

Thanks buddy!
Здравствуйте!Ваши реставрации как произведение исскуства! Лайк 👍! Что вы потом делаете с этими моторами?
Top🎉
1:03:08 тут надо несколько часов шлифовать, таким образом, он меньше минуты шлифовал.
9:54 в карбюраторе перед обработкой надо было закрыть отверстия.
1:08:00 впускной клапан деформирован, возможно погнут.
So when are you going to restore the engine?
15:28 такие винты лучше ставить на фиксатор.
19:37 суперклеем прокладку можно было заклеить.
Damn fine jo young man!!
Kohler 12
21:34 пружину забыл поставить! На винте сбоку!
The evaporust didnt do much because the darker it is the less it works. If you use new evaporust it would of done a better job.
That is sad because its quite expensive.
@@AJRestoration i know it is. Have you tried ospho yet? It turns rust into usable metal. BUT it turns the metal black.
59:38 маховик то зачем покрасил?
you got lucky on that fuel pump diaphragm. its going to fail about real soon. buy another diaphragm now
Hard to find said him

Evapo - rust это обман, он не удаляет ржавчину хорошо.
