Here's a few more pics, I'm hoping by the end of next week we can start the pony and turn over the main motor.

I'll get those parts in the mail Monday.  Sorry about the delay.

Very exciting to put in all the work and finally get it going. Good luck with the start up.

Someone does really nice work with the shell blast. Looking good!

Thanks so much, im hoping to start the pony next week.

Can somebody take a few pics of the throttle and choke assembly on the pony for me,??

Can anybody give me some pointers on the first start up on my pony motor, Also does anybody know what the point gap should be on my magneto ??

Thanks

The gap should be .014"-.018" Always idle engine to circulate oil and warm cylinder heads, then engage starter pinion increase speed, circulate main engine oil, when pressure is up it then can be switched over on compression, after running on compression for several minutes, depending on temperature, open throttle half to 3/4 and main engine should start, if not close throttle and run on compression longer. After diesel starts idle starting engine and turn off fuel valve then return pinion clutch lever to disengaged position.
