We have another new member, Daniel in Oregon who has a 1959 Sears Allstate Standard. Welcome, Dan in California...
Can anyone provide the torque specs for the head on a '56 Iron Eagle? It is an 8 horsepower engine. I am getting an oil leak from the head gasket (at least...
Larry, I wouldn't think there would be that much oil up there on a flathead engine. I would clean it off real good and then watch to see if it is coming from...
I'm going to have to go see that, Mike. They have a bunch of very interesting cars. I say that Vespa Ape and it made me wonder why they didn't have any...
Don't get me wrong. I had a great time at Hiawassee and it was largely a positive experience, but there were a few minor negatives. For one thing, the scooter...
I go about 23 lbs on the head bolts on a cast iron motor with a regular head gasket...do not lube the head bolts....sounds like you have a leaker head gasket...
Howard, sounds like you are blabing to the wrong folks here...maybe you should pick up the phone and repeat your Email to the new owners instead, don't ya...
Where I come from they call that preaching to the choir, and you are correct as usual. I guess I just wanted to know if anybody else noticed those little...
How can you tell the difference between an original Cushman floor mat and a reproduction? The one on my old scooter has a number on the back which I assume is...
Thanks for the information. I was wondering how that much oil would be at the head gasket on a flathead. I'll try re-tightening tonight and if that fails I'll ...
Check head! most aluminum heads will warp if not torqued down properly the first time.Just fixed one for a friend. He was scared to tighten it! He ran it for a...
Howard, The games were a little slow this year because the schedule was changed and folks just weren't used to Thursday AM games...as it turned out, the...
Gosh, Carl, you must have spies everywhere! The Holiday Inn was a little pricy, but nice. I was having so much fun at the meet, I wore myself out, and never ...
Is there any evidence that joint meets are a developing trend? I'm talking about Cushman/Mustang meets where two clubs meet at the same time and same place....
I know there are a lot of people who collect Sears brands. Are there any clubs? Sears brands wound up on a lot of products such as scooters, cars, mopeds,...
Can't pass this up - Check with Wild Bill Predock - he knows where all the joints are.... Like most areas, we have local shows and cruise-ins which are sort of...
Hello Howard and the group. The Texas meet usually is a joint meet with the Mustang club. It is always a lot of fun and usually is a good sized meet. So, if...
That's interesting. Texas is one of those states that we have never really explored. The other one is Montana. We have been to all 50 states but those two...
I keep finding interesting stuff on that old pencil-springer. This morning I looked at the air cleaner. It is one of those horse hair things, and it looks...
Howard...oil bath cleaners were used on the 46 and about 3/4ths of the 1947s..then the cylindrical copper wound filter showed up on the last of the 1947s...in...
This one has the small holes. As near as I can figure, this scooter was in use for about 20 years before it was parked, and I guess it could have had a new...
Help, 2pc engine new coil, condenser points, plug, plug wire, ML3A carb. cold start wears me out. when warm,. starts on 2nd or 3rd kick any ideas THANKS paul...
Hi all. Paul, sounds like maybe you need to give your carb a good cleaning, and check the needle and seat to make sure the needle or seat isn't worn and...
A friend of mine, George Haile, wishes to sell his super Eagle. The scooter starts and runs really good. It was painted recently and looks real nice. The...
Just guessing, but it could be too much or too little choke. Another possiblity is that you need to gain 20 pounds. Have you tried putting in fresh gas?...
Paul When you replaced all the new parts did you check and set the engine timming? If you didn't, it may pay you to do so. Make sure you don't have and air...
