520H test and tune

Valves adjusted and heads back on and torqued down then finally got around to taking carb off of manifold for good ol soak and clean and low and behold barely tapped manifold, because they were stuck together, and manifold came apart in two pieces. Figured that was what was causing the surging issues. In above post you can see I already had another manifold that had been taken apart and resealed so no biggie, but it had no provision for vacuum gauge, so I had to drill and tap it for hose fitting. Slowly getting there :D. I did get a chance to clean motor and rest of tractor and boy did that Eaton need a good cleaning off.

Got a little more done today. Carb cleaned, mounted and manilfold torqed down. I cant belive it ran as good as it did with all the trash in carb. Had wrong fuel bowl to carb top gasket so had to use old one, then found a new one of the right style :unsure:. Also got engine tins painted and guess thats what needs to go back on next. Probably need to check that 9 pin connector Ive read so much about while I got motor pulled out of the way :D

I guess this thread has kind of morphed into more of a restoration thread and if Mods want to move it to a more appropriate forum that would be fine. Or leave as is will be fine also.
