Thanks for replies.

No Diaphragm in this carb I’m afraid. It’s a float and needle type.

Engine Model 80331, Type 943393, Code 6004250.

Unfortunately, the unit was a non-runner when I got it so I have no previous settings I could fall back on.

I stripped the carb and found previous owner had re-assembled badly so re-built accordingly. I suspect the float height maybe too high but, it could of course be something entirely different. The coil, points and plug etc., are all new.

Robert.

Hi Charlie that’s interesting to know about the reverse gear, I take you have to be in Neutral for the reverse to work, or does it bring an idler gear so just reverses the forward gears?

Also don’t suppose you know roughly the size the roto cover lower flap is, as I need to fabricate a new one thanks.

Hi Kev, no dimensions at the moment, but I do have pictures

Its off a 14″ mower, so should be about 14″ wide. The later one is significantly different, so can’t be confused

Here is a link to a short video I took of the ploughing match.

At least, I hope it’s a link!

It was indeed a great weekend and if the magneto on my Anzani hadn’t played up, would have been even better!

Cheers

Ant

Edit: Link didn’t work, so to see it, search for Weeley working weekend 2014 on youTube. I still find this forum tricky!

What colour do you think the tank should be ? Parts of mine appear blue and more of it green .

Hi Chris, unfortunately it is suspected oil pump failure, I didn’t have a lot of time to diagnose, but the piston was fairly dry when I took it apart. TBH, until I get a chance to strip the pump down, I’m keeping an eye out for a machine with a shot gearbox but a decent engine… I could be a long time looking.

Looked like the oil pump on the engine failed Chris when I saw it after Andrew took it apart

Had a chat with the judges about the ground and what they look for.
