hot

I have a H35 (sears craftsman side popper) Tecumseh that won't start when its Hot. Whats up with that? When its cold, starts on first or second pull. Runs like a top. Pretty fast and pulls well. I guess its a snow blower engine. Not sure of the year but it looks like it has points...

If any local friends are looking for something to do this Sunday, IronHonky, Notsominibike and myself will be setting up a minibike display at the Gasket Goons Hot Rod Bash. Sure to be a hell of a good time. Pre 1969 rods and classics, food, pin up contest, valve cover racing!!! Weather looks...

Here the Ruttman washer that I haven't decided on a design for some time. Well, I have a theme.. Lol The motor is a 74 5hp Briggs that got off a tiller some time back. It was a good runner. The motor was rebuilt. The eye brows removed and was ported. The rod was replaced with a ARC billet...

Any hot rodders on here ? I've known this guy for about 20 years, anybody recognize him ? (the guy on the right) LOL !

I bought this bike as a rough and haggard roller last summer with a couple other frames as a packaged deal. when I first saw the bike, I immediately formed a plan to build it as my sons first bike. Seeing how my son isnt even 2 years old yet and I really want to build the bike with him, I put...

Here is my chrome Ruttman frame that I have not had a design for.. Now I have a design.. The 5hp Briggs has been a work in progress. It was a good tiller motor that was disassembled. Head work was done including eyebrows removed, porting, values lapped, and dual racing springs installed. The...

So i was given this puppy the other day it had some Tecumseh motor on it so that came off promptly and I slapped a 2 and a half horse Briggs in their its a cool little cruiser

A got this frame from not so minibike when I was at windber . I'am pretty sure it's a BC1200 , it doesn't have any foot peg mounts on it but it's going to be a mid peg model . The motor on it is my built red clone , should be a pretty stout runner . I need to find a set of wheels for it go...

Has anyone see these before? I just got one last night, was told engine was thought to be bad, put gas in...voila it runs. It has raised white letter Firestone Super Stones tires. Too funny. I guess it's a Courier, looks like a F150. They were featured in the March 1978 issue of Hot Rod...

Has anyone see these before? I just got one last night, was told engine was thought to be bad, put gas in...voila it runs. It has raised white letter Firestone Super Stones tires. Too funny. Guess in the March 1978 issue of Hot Rod magazine it was a give away. Not sure how many were given...

First, thanks for all the great info. This forum has been my no. 1 source for info for this project, and i had minimal experience in 4-stroke small motos before this. I have built a hemi 212 for use on a mudmotor and have a few questions i can't seem to find answered in searches, and I am open...

Anyone seem the NGK hot racing coil selling on eBay for gx200 / clones ? Anybody bought one yet and is it a performance coil and if so how well does perform compared to a stock coil. Anyway to increase spark output of a stock coil ?

Anybody had or have any experience with a NGK hot racing coil that's being sold on ebay for a gx200 and clones? I seem to think maybe seller is being dishonest by just changing the wire and boot to a different color. Can't get the seller to answer any of my questions about the the performance of...

...So I got this sweet GX 160 from Rocco and I needed to put it on something.Since Jake's Hood Rat lives in my garage it seemed like a likely candidate. The Hood Rat has now become the Hood Hot Rod Rat and I haven't found the top end yet. Thanks Rocco.:thumbsup:

Robert C's collage he made in 1969 or so from Hot Rod mag photos, for a school project.
