Look for Nylatron. That is the name brand for a special plastic that can be easily machined but wears really well. It can even wear steel down. Comes in lots of different shapes solids, rounds, and sheets. Used for bushings, washers and places that ordinarily plastic would fail. McMaster Carr...
Use a regular cold chisel for metal and a small hammer if needed to knock off the splatter. Then use a fine cut flat file to finish cleaning up the surface. Just make sure that you are rolling the file with the contour of the frame tube as you are filing. You don’t want to hold the file still...
I have two of them one is complete and the other one may be missing something. Always kept inside I haven’t looked at them for awhile. If interested let me know and I can look them over and send you pictures. Located in Pa.
It may mean a change to the part that is an improvement over the previous version. But it will also fit the previous application but it may look slightly different. Like maybe a gas tank with a different fill, different outlet or location of it. Possibly the first version wasn’t ideal or working...
After using a cutoff wheel I would use a small right angle grinder to get close. But for the final step I would be using a flat smooth cut hand file. It’s easier to maintain the round tubing shape. You won’t get as many flat spots because you can keep the file moving to follow contours when...
He tried a switch and bait BS with me too. I live close to him or his listed location and wanted to just pick it up but then it was sold. And he wanted to sell other stuff but didn’t get back to me.
Excellent information, thank you so much. The responses I received were exactly what I wanted to know about the H50 line of Tecumseh engines. I don’t often post on here because I am limited in my knowledge of the mini bikes. But I do visit the group site nearly every day. Antique and vintage...
I have found a old snow blower with a H50 motor on it in running condition and in descent looking shape. Would this be a good candidate to use on a earlier 70 mini bike. The model # is H50 65472P and the serial # is 31450. I can probably purchase it for around $50 or less. Thanks for any advice...
I would be interested in that bar and could straighten it. I could also purchase both of the bars if needed. Please check on the switch and see if you have it. Thanks
I am looking for the right-side handlebar and the locking knob for the same. This is the for the Earls fork that uses two separate bars that can be raised or lowered to adjust the height. Used in the early 70s by MTD and Columbia. I also need the original Lucas style taillight lenes. And the...
