Trying more pictures
Yes I have blown this filter out with compressed air. Several times actually. But if the dirt/gravel has any little bit of dust this thing starts running like crap and will foul a plug quickly if I don't shut it down.
Thanks for your help.
So I'm working on my new Garage and my compactor needs a new air filter. It's a Predator 179cc. I know not a mini bike but I am here with the small engine experts. Even pretend I'm pulling the motor off this to put on my next mini and I want to keep it STOCK engine.
Anyway I'll post pics of...
I'm with @Bigjake. Don't scrap it too quick. Post a location and then let some pms come in. I'd grab it just to have around if close by.
I can't imagine you couldn't get way more than scrap value for that. What's it weigh, like 100lbs?
Edit: I have no clue what kind it is. Since that's the...
So I can obviously just manually bend the forks back into a straightish shape. How well does that work? Will they just bend backwards easier next time? Anyone done it and kept them straight? Would adding a strongback on them help?
No I am not going to try to find another set that is...
It's getting a gas engine.
I am NOT an electric vehicle kinda guy.
My buddy did drop off the original rear wheel/tire. That makes it a little better. After I uncobble the seat, it should be a useable scooter.
Not sure if I should call it a mini bike or stick with calling it a scooter.
So my guess is they took the pedals off of the MOPED/SCOOTER when they added the gas engine. Then there no where to put you feet so they did the foot pegs on the front. Then you couldn't reach them from the seat, over the engine. So they cobbled up the seat post so you could reach the foot...
So the paint scraping wasn't going very well. I was afraid I would remove whatever was on the tag. I got out some brake cleaner and it dissolved the black and most of the red paint. Underneath I found the remains of a tag for "SOLO Kleinmotoren " I googled that and think mine came out in the...
First day off. I decided to do another once over for a tag or name. I found one right where it should be, DOH...
The number stamped in is 703186.
Not sure which method to start with on removing paint. Razor knife/scraper or paint stripper/chemicals.
And a couple of the CICLOMOTORE Tyre
I am not a "make it original guy".
I am a "make it run and let the nephews and grandson enjoy it guy".
As far as the seat post I am just trying to figure out what it is, so I can look up pictures of it originally.
I really am surprised it has everyone here stumped on what it used to be. I...
A few more pictures. Because most people like pictures.
The engine plate hole look home cut.
I should have gotten better pictures of the sprockets and I haven't gotten ghd original rear sheel yet.
Before I go chasing rabbits down random holes is there a discussion on here about how to pick the proper torque converter? Or are they all the same? Im pretty sure I'm not going to use whats on there now.
I also got the 8 hp Tecumseh running. Carb bowl was trashed with rust. Good thing it...
Thanks for the link to your thread.
I just read it and will get some better pictures today of the t/c parts on it.
I also did some research last night and it looks like the Peerless axle or parts are available. I guess I might follow that Wascally Wabbit down into that hole of tearing it apart.
