If that`s a road could be a old RR grade ? :) Hey Lenn, There were railroads running through there. Most of the cars were pulled by oxen at the time. He...

Re: Shoulda Consulted the Weather
Are you familiar with a product called Sea Foam? It's available at WalMart and it can be a lifesaver, especially with small engines. Pour some into the gas tank, crank it enough so you get some into the carburetor and let it sit for half an hour. The stuff does miracles. Great stuff have used it al...

Re: Shoulda Consulted the Weather
Sometimes if it`s a float carb the float needle will stick closed and it won`t get any fuel, try tapping on the float bowl lightly and it might free up and run.

Re: Brooms and Boxes
The ratchet wheel just winds the wire there`s a separate tension device which isn`t working like it should.
I`m going to try making another type today, i`ll post pictures later today
