1965 Gravely L8 Rebuild: Episode 1 - Tear-down and Analysis

[@IVant2BAlone]

We had one in 1965 when I was a little girl. It had attachments like a post hold digger that we used to dig holes for trees.

i just recently bought a Model LI gravely and got it running for the first time in about 20 years , its a cool machine but mine smokes when cold but still seems to run good

One thing these engines are good for is sticking exhaust valves.

I would suggest that you ground the sparkplug wire. Better for the coil.

[@ripperace]

What? Ground the plug wire? So it won’t get spark?
