Good job on that one. I kind of like the old rusty look.👍

[@SuperMaico250]

Nice one Roy it’s a good buzz when when it starts well done Roy

[@Sam-m04]

That carburettor was used on so many things. Also used on some Ferguson TE20s

[@murraysworkshed9501]

Nice video Roy. Good to see you got it going. Top job.

[@PullerbearEd]

Wow that thing is smooth. I would have bet it would be viderating all over the place

[@roystheboy]

I think it would have if I didn't bolt it to the wood

[@edwardthomas9671]

Well done Roy change from pulling lol , Mick will give you dislike for putting the phone down lol

[@neiltab2079]

Well done Roy, they don't make them like that anymore 👍

[@MissBELLE003]

Totally awesome video thanks for for making it ! Hope you got my package 📦 !

[@olivertownsend4736]

Bloody good Engine

[@dukesworld3020]

Over here in the states, we call that carburetor an updraft. You may already know this but if you lose any compression from the rings, valves or just a bad casket. It will not start. But you got it to running and that's what counts. Good job.

[@roystheboy]

thanks duke

[@DSMODELS]

Hayy Roy wow mate she’s a runner well done mate she sounds great too 👍👍👍👍😊😊😊

[@roystheboy]

thanks dave just have to sort out fuel pipe & tap and the leak

[@Joe-qm5rz]

All good video mate.

[@jay-kq8of]

The old girl sounds sweet Roy hope for more videos on the a11

[@BensWorkshop]

Hooray! It lives! I can't answer any of your questions unfortunately.

[@roystheboy]

That's ok wish I knew where its leaking from

[@BensWorkshop]

@@roystheboy You will get there.

[@anthonyholmesoutdoors1837]

Quite a talent there, getting machines back in proper order. I usually just holler for help. lol

[@dirtriderkx500]

That was shocking. Fantastic job Roy. You are leaving it in your will to me right? LOL 😀

[@stevethegreasemonkey]

The tap on the bottom of the float chamber is for draining the carb on the models with petrol paraffin

[@mlangfordoutdoor]

Hay mate well done

[@Ian.........]

Nice one Roy. great job getting it running. Just be careful of you thumb when starting it as it could kick back and break ya thumb. When I've seen people start these engines before they have their thumb next to their fingers and sort of cup the starter in their palm.

[@roystheboy]

ok thank you for that I will remember it

[@FOUNDITBURIED]

Hello Roy, Wanted to let you know, I have received my my prize, I have won from you And Mick. I'll be opening it live on a Live Stream tonight Friday/25th at 9:30 pm eastern. I will all-so be video taping it so I can make a mail call shout out for both of you guys. THANK YOU, ROY. I hope you make it tonight.

[@alan4391]

Well done roy when you use the starting handle please don't put your thumb round the handle put your thumb over the top or if it kicks back it could bust your thumb

[@roystheboy]

Ok thanks for letting me know

[@shaunjames3410]

Defo dont wrap thumb around crank handle, I have a petter A11 petrol/TVO and she kicks like a mule

[@stefanainsworth3129]

Hi Roy mate just to say you'v dun a good job on that carburetor it look's a lot cleaner.

[@roystheboy]

thanks stefan much appreciated

[@cbullar4205]

I know its abit late but it should be set to between 1.5 and 2 turns, trying to stick to the lower. Any more then 2 turns will let to much fuel through and it will run out the bottom as seen, engine will also be running very rich and smokey.

[@roystheboy]

thank you I still haven't finished the engine yet so will keep that in mind

[@charanjitpunia8455]

Hello there still using the desiel version of these in my farm in india good engine

[@mattstubbington8805]

Wow Roy sounds really good, is you planning on showing it????

[@TheTutorialguy_28]

He should it would make a lovely show engine

[@BigAdam2050]

So the hole, I think thats to stop the air filter filling up with fuel when the engine misses. So it dribbled out the bottom.

[@davidyoung6608]

Great job on getting that engine up and running. Do you know what that particular engine was use for?

[@roystheboy]

I would say it was used on a farm really

[@l.capewell7970]

@@roystheboy yup, for sure. I have one of these. I bought mine 2 years ago and it was basically rotten. It had chicken poop in the flywheel guard, so had obviously been on a farm.

[@dukesworld3020]

If you plan to sell it, Don't paint it. Most collectors prefer to do it themselves. That's the way it is over here anyway.

[@turd6776]

I got 4 of these engine and 3 are complete and

[@fringehead]

That motor wants to be put to labor

[@spuddyspud8178]

That's not restoration that was simple.by the way you struggled with the points I wouldnt bother . I would stick to pushbikes.

[@roystheboy]

That was only a part of the Restoration, as for the points that was the first time doing one of those mags and I got the machine to run before I do a full Restoration, and by the way I dont ride bikes
