You can clean all thr shit out of them, that one might be a bit far gone if it's fully stuck out. Il let you look into it. Key part is don't disassemble the spring part. I don't think you have to worry about explosive bits in that one Generally it doesn't take that much gunk for them to stick

Jumping forward a war I just picked up an "anzac". Welsh built between 1947 and 1950, a cheap, reliable, and austere watch for the average man of the commonwealth. The Morris Minor of watches, who wouldn't love one. This one is a single owner, the gentleman's first watch in fact. They have a 5 jewel pin escapement, which is a fairly low cost but serviceable movement. Certainly there are many still running today with next to no maintenance (Morris minors) and still getting within a couple of minutes at the end of the day Also It matches my morrie too

What a workhorse. How good

Handles like it's on rails mate The rails

This is just the worst Congrats Looks like the sparkplugs have been kept well oiled

Oh damn, maybe a covid victim. I had his number somewhere. If you look for the Honda XL parts on amazon, Ebay, or aliexpress you should find the same parts

Il get it out of the shed one day, don't rush me

Actually yes, that's what that is

Hey this one has a cut down 2nd gen tray too Almost had a look at mine today, geeze I think il just make it a rpu at this point

I mean for brake levers

Jialing one will work/it's the same thing. Otherwise look at Xl185 ones

deck block, machine pistons to suit and smooth out the dome and valve pockets for better flow and to prevent hot spots. All of this would have been avoided if the pistons were correct. I wonder if it's like my GN, with the dome and the squish bands it gets a weird flame front and "pings", improved with higher octane, and then again with modding the squish areas

There's a couple different decal sets for these. Straight blue seems pretty common. The white is a little less common Decided to go with blue on these spare covers I want to get some mellow yellow livery for it with the old logo

Wanted to tidy up the plastics a bit. Got some white and blue vinyl ages ago but got time today

Wipe off with lacquer thinner and copper gasket spray

Had same problem on morrie, didn't help, ended up using thr sealwell cube and all G

I have been saving for one and every 3 months it's gone up again, so I will never catch up

A man named Bart, against advice, Bought a Datsun, not once but twice. His wife disapproved, The car hardly moved, Now it's rusting – not so nice.

I will dig further to see where my thing of jets is I have a carb from a slightly caught fire CT, so might be a genuine one in that if it's not melted

I think that's this I think I got that for a jialing Honda clone. Don't see a number on the idle jet, but I'm sure it's the same kit But I probably have an assortment of idle jet too

I still think it's basically a camping trailer already

If there's a suitable donor at a pickapart I can probably find some time next week (particularly if it's Takanini)

I have seen diy swamp cooler versions of that. Something to rotate the fabric on and hold. Some water
