vhgmcbuddyKeymasterThanks for all the replies. I didn’t realise that the search was only confined to the post title and did not include the content. I inherited the manual in 1979 when the original Godfreys of Brenchly (Kent) closed down together with two car loads of parts books and manuals that were about to be skipped. Not so relevant now that so much info is available on the net but a godsend at the time.

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterLooks like you done a great resto job on the 300.My dad still has a 350 which he bought new in 1967.He really wanted a 400 but it was too big to go in the back of his Ford Anglia van.

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterI find that the engines run rich with SAe 30 with plug sooting problems SAE 20 seems to work but it may be my imagination.

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterHi I have OTA tractor three wheeled bought by my great uncle in 1952
It then was sold on and went through a couple of owners and ended up in a large vintage collection here in the Shetland isles once the owner ideas the the family decided to give the tractors back to the original owners or their families!
I have pictures of it in use on the land ! Thing is I am having problems finding tyres to fit it it’s in a none running stage but hope to get that sorted and there is s single furrow plow ! The collector had painted both up for showing at the local vintage show so just need to get it runningJune 4, 2017 at 6:53 pm #25459
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterThanks Dave.
I couldn’t remember from last year whether they were sent early or not, didn’t want to miss it! SIMARs will be out in force!June 3, 2017 at 5:07 pm #25447
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterThank you for the tip.
I contacted them and was advised to buy a new carb assy,
what I will do.
I will keep you informed.
Thanks.June 3, 2017 at 4:46 pm #25446
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterI have a Howard 400 with the same engine (J.A.P 4/3).Just half a turn on the handle and the engine fires up :).

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterMany thanks for your replies guys, I’ll whip the engine off and check the clutch. Funnily enough I stripped the machine, gearboxes drive chains etc, but not the clutch, now it’s come back to haunt me 😃
This is my first “oily rag resto” hence I’m on a steep learning curve. Farming was never this difficult 😄😄.
We live and learn.
Regards Dave.June 2, 2017 at 11:56 pm #25442
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterIs the SAE50 oil used in the Differintial as well?
Can I use the Same oil as the engine sump?
If so it simplifies things.June 2, 2017 at 10:52 pm #25440
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterMy rebuild is progressing nicely. The differential and half shafts are fitted along with the brake drums and bands.
Can anyone advise of the correct oil for the dif and the gearbox?June 2, 2017 at 7:05 pm #25439
vhgmcbuddyKeymasterThey use a single dry plate clutch.If it was all ok before the engine was removed then you must have reassembled it incorrectly.Take the engine of again and reinvestigate.

vhgmcbuddyKeymasterClean the contact breakers behind the flywheel (and if you don’t have the proper test equipment to test the condenser fit a new one for piece of mind) and all should be ok.I like the Italian Aspera engine(s) very much and in my mind were a better engine than the USA built Briggs and Stratton.I still have a few horizontal crankshaft Aspera,s amongst my collection.
Parts should be easily sourced from the popular auction website. -
