cleat 8,148 #216 Posted yesterday at 03:47 PM Tapped and blew out intake and exhaust mounting holes. Screwed a bolt in and measured max thread engagement. Intake 0.70" Exhaust 0.60" Best bolt length for mounting the intake to block that I have on hand is 2" (that gives me about 0.55" of thread engagement). I will figure exhaust bolt length when I go to install the muffler. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will figure exhaust bolt length when I go to install the muffler. I believe that the thread depth varies, I always use a bottom tap to get them as deep as possible. That cast aluminum strips easily so I want the maximum amount of thread. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cleat 8,148 #219 Posted 8 hours ago Spare carb I had kicking around from a 416 I bought with a bad engine. This is the non-emissions carb that I use on all of my Onan engines. The 416H in this thread is a 1996 so it came with the emissions carb that I am not going to use. Carb is taken as far apart as I need to (I hope) for cleaning. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I can't take a chance on that hose failing or kinking so I replaced it as per WHX??. New hose may look the wrong length in the picture but it is exactly the same as the original.

New hose may look the wrong length in the picture but it is exactly the same as the original. I always leave that hose a couple of inches too long and then cut it to length at final assembly. The extra length makes assembly easy and then I can look inside to see how it lays before cutting to length. The length is very important to keep the hose away from everything.
