Went to see neighbour to ask if i could try out machine in spring.he said no whys that i asked. He replied when you ploughed it last winter with barfod there was a right mess. soil coming from tyre tread he means. Some folk are so ungratefull.

You could try Prorust, Treats and removes corrosion from steel, stainless steel and aluminium metal. You can find out more if you Google it. I have used it on corroded aluminium and it did the gob.

hi john. years ago we used to clean vehicle radiators out with caustic soda. a mild mix of this will probably shift it ,then thoughly rinse.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Might as well come clean before someone notices it. on the belt guard I have missed a ding,drat. sometimes you cannot see them until the paint goes on. A graphic actually covers where the ding is so will hide it from view,once I get them ordered.

Unusual find Charlie but as Stuart says I have no recollection of the make either.

Went for car MOT today and I was slightly unaware what the man would find as its my first one with the new car. as look would have it the car passed PHEW panic over for twelve months. Back to thread. More bits added, and some filled and first coated,so overall had a good Saturday.

Have taken a look at the engine serial no which was covered in grime and can confirm its a 1971.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Had a look this morning, mine has a Champion J-8. But the replacement L86C for L10, as Angus thought would be the right one. Sent PM regarding manual if you are interested.

[vhgmcbuddy]

I think it’s a Jap 80 engine on your rotovator that used a Champion L10 plug. I have a gardenmaster 80, will check it in the morning.

Would like to try it out but will ask neighbour as i do not have a veg patch

[vhgmcbuddy]

Going to be smart John you might not want to get it dirty. Or will we see it in action later on.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Yes Stuart ,now I have changed the colour I am sure when combined with the red you will want to eat it, only joking ! the red is Tornado Red White is Light Ivory.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Now that the paint has dried I am not happy with the colour . it looks like white primer. So into the paint store and came across some light ivory which I used on the Atco rotary 1957. nice classic colour and as the iseki is 35 years plus will go for that. here are a few photos.
