    Lets talk throttle control

    I did a search and couldn't find anything much. What I am after is more refined throttle control. I know these motors are made to run at a single speed so we have an uphill battle. I am running a 389 Champion. I hooked the throttle cable to the factory mount. The throttle gets harder to turn the...

    Sears Roper tank

    If anyone is looking for one of these tanks this would be one way. Not that much more than you find this tank going for anyway. You could talk him into parting it out I'm sure. $200 Mini Bike

    Car Talk

    Just a shame. I love this show. I guess it explains why they've been playing re-runs for two years though. ‘Car Talk’ co-host Tom Magliozzi has died - The Washington Post

I will be using either an McCulloch MC49 or a MC91M/C. I may use the 91 as it has a 3/4" PTO...

    Lets talk benches

    O.k. I have been using a folding table that has been reinforced with a piece of plywood in my makeshift summer shop aka the carport. Last year I got a rolling metal table approximate 3x6 that was great because I could move it out of the way when not needed. I found that if I suspend the mini...

    Let's talk chains

    My daughter and I were out braving near zero temps a couple of weeks ago. I was pulling her on her sled and I was on my DB30 6.5 on a snow covered back road. Wouldn't you know it, we get about 1 mile or 2 from home and my chain snapped. Or I should say my master link broke/fell off. Luckily I...
