Just for a bit of info not that it likely applies here but my B+ had a intermittent sticking throttle problem . If I kept it to half throttle or less it was fine but half or over it would stick and slowly come down . While puttering around the field trying to figure it out I had left the top cable b...

Stephentown New York just East of Albany

During a couple of old tractor restos I found that a spray bottle with some kerosene in it and keep the grungy areas real wet seamed to work the best for those really dirty areas , softens the crud up makes it easier to scrap off

I did this kind of thing "back in the day" on my 1970 A , drums and cam started to wear and brakes wouldnt 'reach" took a piece of copper pipe and wrapped the pivot WaLa brakes again ! Kept a 15 year old kid going ...

I went to the VT DMV sight and found the same form as was posted but I dont see any address ... perhaps some one whos already been sucsseful at this might post a step by step primer for those of us interested in trying this route ?

I looked the form over but how do you submit it to VT DMV ? Is there a "next " link I missed ?

I till have the sprockets from the Ace 100 I bought new in my parts box (swapped them off for a 45 tooth) and the B+ I bought last summer stil has the originals on it ...

I got mine today they look GREAT !

Ive "fixed" leaky petcocks by gently polishing the parts the goal is not to remove a lot of material ! I take them apart and use DuPont no 7 has worked 4 petcocks for me ...

I havent done a "soak test " to see how fuel resistant it is but have painted engines with DupliColor paint , the Hunter Green is real close to Merc outboard Cedarburg Green and no problems but your results may vary ... todays gas is such a toxic mix that I wouldnt bet against it

Im going to submit this just becuase ... My B+ had a guard scudder welded to the head light brackets , Ive been back and forth on this , do I gring it off and redo it it so it doesnt look like a 10 year old did it or leave it as found ... well Saturday I couldnt stand looking at it anymore and groun...

On my B+ a prevous owner had welded a hoop brush guard on to the head light brackets .Pretty crudely done Id like to take it off and touch up the paint anybody know of a spray can color thats close ? Ive looked at the racks at a few parts stores but didnt see anything I thought looked right ...

Thats what Im seeing ...even key in just the "run" position its on , would understand in the second lights position ... gotta wonder how much that little bulb can take all by itself ! Most bike / sled systems are a balanced as in one bulb goes it will take rest with it (at least the early ...

Hi all ... just finished rehooking up wires and installing a new key switch on my B+ ( prior owner had eliminated the key switch and it had a on /off toggle) , I went thru and checked and tested all the wireing with the tank and seat off just so no surprises . Now the speedometer light I notice is o...

This just keeps getting better ! While replacing the fuel lines I got nosey about the tool kit so I pulled it out , original vinyl package with most of the tools in it ... well ... looked up in the tube to see if there were any more loose tools and what do I see ? A plastic sandwich bag with a old r...
