Always a challenge when parts are scarce. I bet that was a premium unit when new.

"Custom" gasket. That's the nice way to say it. 👍

Nice job on the video! I wish you could have seen the geyser of oil and fuel coming out of the top of that carburetor when I first took this thing in. It was quite a sight to see. 😅

So, Jim, the whole problem was one screw loose? That’s been my problem all of my 78 years! 😂👍

I liked your makeshift cardboard 'funnel' for directing the oil. That's JC always improvising. Great video. Thanks for making Thursdays start off well.

I've had that same 3/8 ratchet for 30+ years. It's one of my favorites.
