Re: GT4 Starting a 185 after quite some time of inactivity...

To agree with the great Mr Jon O'Gant, father of one,

That'll work, I would think. Works for my old fordson major come onion
harvesting time, pull out the charger, rope her to the front of the tractor,
give
her a good old whip to get her rolling, and when shes up to speed pop the
clutch on the old major. Then repeat the above with the ignition on and the stop
button pushed in. Hasnt worked for the missus though, I tried to find her
EFIn fuse, ended up with fingers smelling like a cockle picker and the old lass
still wouldnt start. Tried jump leads, but it burnt her scammel wheel nuts,
and the kick in the short and currlies as rather unwelcome.

What I should do is trade it in for a nice massey furgeson or one of them
new fangled International Harvesters. Apparently they will run on Cherry
flavoured diesel without the wrath of them chaps form VOSAen, with there sweet
smelling flake free scalps.

Oooo Arghhh

Anyone know how to turbocharge a Countach 42" lawnmower? Its got a
Briggs&Crapton V twin in it?

Only one thing I would question, seriously, is how long has it been stood,
and how old is the cambelt? It drives not only the cams, but he water pump and
the oil pump. If its been stood that long I would suggest changing it and the
guide and tensioner pulleys. Then get Charger to drag it down the lane!

I thought everyone had gone home from here?
