Love the thinking outside the box , got to do with what you got when they don’t make stuff for 50 year old machine

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

Yes sir

[@GoKartsorGoneFishin]

Great machine

[@flydaddy55]

I like how you made that adapter and solved two problems at once. My way of thinking. You need to buy a big old box of assorted clips for your projects.. LOL

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

Right on man thanks, truly was the simples quick solution that I could see . I hear ya on the old parts, I have boxes/buckets and draws in my tool boxes full of crap! Then I go to my new place and I have a hand full of tools and no parts, Will get there eventually all takes time

Wen u put a electric fuel pump on did u have to put a fuel regulator on aswell?

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

I did not, however some people do, it’s prob not a bad idea to add a regulator. The only issues I have had is that when it’s hot out and the tractor is sitting the fuel tank does pressurized from the heat and pushes fuel through the electric pump and floods the carburetor. I just added a petcock

[@Belting101]

Ohh ok sweet so the fuel pump dosent flood the carburetor by itself thats awesome

do you have info. on the model of the carb.??

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

Hi this is the Carb I ended up using, I'm guessing you watched the Video, its not a straight bolt on but fairly easy to adapt. The old tractor works great with this carb! www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08RBKKWBR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
