She is back on the road again. Rebuilt the motor this week and finished installing it yesterday. It took me 2 hours to get that top left bellhousing to motor bolt in What really made me upset is I was going to glue a nut and washer to the motor before installing the motor to make it easier and forgot to do it.
It fired up on about the 5th turn of the motor and purred like a kitten and that made up for all the trouble with that bolt Jim |

That's great - one of the best days in the hobby, when they come back to life. |
