    It's a mobile mosquito fogger, 😂😂😂. That's awesome man!!!!! It kinda looks like a rotten pumpkin, 😂😂, but it lives!!! I love it, 😂😂. Paint it Oliver green, put an Oliver umbrella on it and ride it to your hearts content. You got a good deal.

    Lots of fun! Here is an idea for you. Saw several elderly gentleman with a golf cart at the Southeast Old Thresher’s Reunion one time. He added a 110v window air conditioner right behind the riders that was powered by a Honda generator. The cold air was blowing on their backs!

    I would say it’s probably a 40:1 oil mix which is a shade over 3 ounces per gallon of gas. I’d be careful running around much if you don’t have the proper mixture those two strokes will burn up pretty quick…ask me how I know. Should be a cool rig painted up in Oliver colors. If you could find an Oliver steering wheel knob to put on it that would be awesome!

    I bought on similar to what you have it’s a cushman. I paid 50 dollars for it at an auction no one wanted it. They couldn’t figure out how to get it started. It’s electric I noticed they resided a switch on it and I drove it on the trailer. I have a semi horn on it.

    Take off the Allis Chalmers signage and paint it Oliver green and mount a name stripe on the rear quarter. Maybe you could find out what the displacement of the engine is and use that number on the spear. These are very cool. I think that thing could be a lot of fun!

    I just bought one of these from my neighbor and I'm trying to figure out how to get it to start with the gas pedal because it doesn't and it's kind of hard to figure out how it's wired. I finally got it to turn over by jump starting the solenoid but now that doesn't work. Looks like it'll be fun once I get it running

    Ross, I do have a 1970 Harley-Davidson it's running. I bought it in 2017 and I have used it every day out of the year except for maybe 20 days. Best little transportation that I know of. You can get parts from Buggies Limited in Chicago or Vintage golf carts not sure of their address, but if you're interested let me know and I'll get you phone numbers to each. Color's I'm a Cockshutt person so I have Cockshutt red and Cockshutt yellow cream. Skip Western PA,

    Put some lubrication on the piston deek head, youve just scored the crap out of the rings and the cylinder wall. 50/50 trans fluid and acetone, good lubrication and penetration. Theres also a fan in there that helps keep the engine cool but you took the shroud off

    • @rosstheoliverman
      @rosstheoliverman  9 місяців тому

      If you watched the whole video, you would have noticed I poured oil in the cylinder. Also you would have noticed I put the shroud back on. There were no score marks at all.

  • @skipruckert4605
    @skipruckert4605 9 місяців тому

    Ross, it's me again. Mine has a key switch in the middle section and then you press on that gas pedal and that's how it starts. There is a button on the axel mine is on the left side in the middle of the wheel, push in or out and that gives you free wheel. The points will be located in the little triangle piece behind the muffler I think there's three screws. The carburetor could be clogged? They say that there is a special mix for these just a regular chain saw I guess does not do the antique golf cart well. Please let me know what you need to know and I'll get back to you. Skip

    Check your German heritage. The Messersmidt 3-wheel car reversed by running the engine in the opposite direction. 2-stroke Detroit Diesels will run in both directions. That is how ships and submarines using the 2-stroke engines went ahead or astern. Parts? My guess it that the engine is the same as the Harley Hummer. It will run better when you have your pasture pool clubs on the back.

      Then you have penetrant all over while working on it also like the man says he don’t got none. Sometimes it’s not convenient to run to a store or maybe he just don’t feel like going out in public so he makes due with what he has successfully
