My carb kit and fuel line for the John Deere 50V came in the mail today. Need to find time to get them installed and see where I'm at.

I check here every day too.

Well, I've acquired an MS 460 builder. It's a mess, but workable. Needs plastics and a piston and it should be good to go. Gotta keep an eye out for cheap parts, lol.

I found that the deal breaker on them is the fuel tank/handle. Everything else can be gotten cheap enuff.

I guess this thread is done and everybody has moved on. Kinda sad if you think about it . I can't access the new place during work hours, but I will be joining you nutsacks tonight or in the near future.

I feel like I missed something, what is going on?

Finished it up today.

Looks great...like the dog-ear fence board look on the top two drawers.

 

[67L36Driver]

At Liberty this am. Spitting a few flakes.
Hope it holds off till we get back to River City.

Morning guys

I think I figured out why the John Deere won't run. Dug this mess out of the screen.

 

[SteveSS]

Is it necessary to use this part if the other one looks ok?

I have never found any trash under the welch plugs to date.
You can always 'do over'.

 

[SteveSS]

I went ahead and replaced it. No trash under it.

 

[Hedgerow]

Is there even a way to get trash under a Welch plug?

 

[SteveSS]

After pulling it out and having a look inside, I'd say it would be difficult. The manual says "Under extreme conditions of clogged idle fuel channel and discharge ports, it may be necessary to remove the welch plug". I'm still a rookie though, so after all the gunk in the screen, I removed it and had a look. I probably won't on the next one.

 

[67L36Driver]

Iffin' the tiny trash screen were missing, I'd remove the plug.
