Frank,

My TWENTY plate is just a smooth corroded aluminum plate. Do you want to trade? At least your can be read. I think they are available in the UK. You know where.

Aircleaner at Santa Margarita, CA.

They're still in business. Called if they have any printed materials in their files for this air cleaner.

After reseting mag timing. Tried to crank. Did not spin backwards any more. One cylinder has good resistance compression. But did not start. Took the tank off for the holiday to let it drain out some more of that brown stuff thats coming loose in the fuel.

Will attach chain to drawbar mount on bottom and pull across parking lot to start it. Don't have the arm to crank it fast enough.


Timming before adjustment. Impulse starter released at MAG mark on crank pulley.

If anyone is in the Ventura County area this week.
Let me know if you would like to see the Cat 10 and try helping me start it!

Now if I can get it start again. And keep running...

Man, does that have compression. No wonder you can't crank it fast enough to start when the compression turns it on its side like that.
Its looks good. I'm sure you will have it running soon.
