my restoration of a 1276

great minds do think alike. was absolutely a fun ride. Have to get hood back on and some stickers and tires. when I get the whole pond system back on I will take a pic of whole thing. run the big pond all year there is goldfish in that one. that's y 7'deep no freezing.. oh gonna send that carving to ya . don't mind me when something comes to me and am pulled in that direction I never question just go with it. that is why did carving of wheel horse came to me and as soon as started it knew where it was going. From Pictures you have a nice big shop! mine is 2 rooms each at 10'x20'. I always say I've got 60 lbs of stuff in a 10 lb bag

so after a few rides I discovered that it back fires and loads up when given throttle of more then about 1/3.,
since it was windy and cold out today and not so easy to get in and out of shop decided to wait til tomorrow to investigate.
troubleshooting says carburetor and or timing. any other suggestions for what to check?

A picture of fan made up since it was missing

Heading out to check out now will let you know how I make out

Ok two places tell me something different, one tells me .025 gap for plug other tells me .035 so which is it?



this is the pipe sticking up for oil fill which after some searching found it actually was an option

Thank you also what Is the valve clearance? have breather out figure might as well check
