    Skat kitty paint code?

    Only my opinion, but I think a simple "fleet" red would be correct. On these older engines and minis, I think they used simple, easily available parts and paint colors. Or maybe a tractor red color? Like a Massey Ferguson or International Harvester red would be good?

    Argyle Scooter Cub Update #4

    I have 1/8” numbers (the ones I used), 3/32” numbers, and 1/16“ numbers, and a few odd sized letters. If those work on your Bonanza badge, I’ll be glad to stamp it for you. Thanks.

    Argyle Scooter Cub Update #4

    Thank you very much. I did a bunch of test stamps in scrap aluminum to get it just right. Here is an original tag. It’s very close.

    Argyle Scooter Cub Update #4

    Wanted to update everyone on the progress I’ve made on the ID/vin plate I had made. Plate was an excellent reproduction of the original. I wanted to stamp in the model and serial numbers as close to original as possible. After much research on size and type of letters, I searched to find a...

    Adjusting a Clinton Panther 500 with LMB carb, driving me crazy.

    Now that I have it running, I think it just needs to run and “break in”. This engine was NOS. Never had gas in it or ran. It was stored in a warehouse with about 20 other new Clinton panther motors, all out of the box. Been sitting on a shelf since the mid 60’s. The out side looked bad...

    Adjusting a Clinton Panther 500 with LMB carb, driving me crazy.

    The factory settings were a little fat at 1 1/2 turns, but adjusted down to about 3/4 turn, it runs fine. Thanks for asking.

    Adjusting a Clinton Panther 500 with LMB carb, driving me crazy.

    The is an NOS Clinton Panther from the mid 60's. Has been in dry storage this whole time. Never had gas in it or a bolt turned on it. I've cut back the main jet to 3/4 turn and it is running much better. I just need to let it run in and adjust it finer I guess? THANKS!

    Adjusting a Clinton Panther 500 with LMB carb, driving me crazy.

    Yes, spark is good and strong, it's not the problem It starts first pull. Just runs crappy.

    Adjusting a Clinton Panther 500 with LMB carb, driving me crazy.

    Having not worked on two strokes for many years, like the 70's, anyone have any tips? Manual calls for 1 1/4 on main and 1 1/4 on air screw. It starts and runs but that's it. No acceleration and lots of blue smoke Gas mixture is good and fresh. Too rich I'm guessing, so ill start there...
