Brings back memories of the machines our gardeners used at our house back in the 1960's I remember he had the pull rope looped around the handle, front throw lawn mower. Great fun watching the restoration.

The particular mower was the Cal Trimmer, I saw the same mower used as well. Long wooden ramps to bring the mower down, you have a lot of power so the engine never ran fast just a quiet idle

Buen trabajo. Hoy da la casualidad que después de 2 años de estar buscando una bobina de encendido la he conseguido y este fin de semana intentare ponerlo en marcha. Dos años restaurando un motocultor con un motor KOHLER K91. Good job. Today it so happens that after 2 years of looking for an ignition coil I have found it and this weekend I will try to start it up. Two years restoring a rotary tiller with a KOHLER K91 engine.

Missing the oil dip stick and tube, cooling tins and fuel tank. Without know more I suspect it was a K 91 EP since it has no recoil start, It may have once powered a small generator. Based on the colour made before 1965. Good little motor and you did a pretty good job.

That came out pretty good. But a couple of things that could’ve been done better were... lapping the valves and also you didn’t properly align the piston ring ends (to prevent them from lining up and scratching the cylinder)
@AJRestoration
3 жыл бұрын
Some of the details I did off screen, like valve lapping, valve gapping, points gapping. The piston rings were done as per owners manual. Misaligning will not scratch the cylinder wall, it will only affect compression and oil consumption and carbon buildup. If the rings were not done correctly the motor would have less compression and it would smoke when it is running.
