peter lena 9,316 #1 Posted August 27, 2019 today , i adjusted back the choke cable on the magnum 12 , with walborough carb, did not like the not as quick start,as my 2 other magnums.always thought the choke butterfly was not fully seated with lever. loosing cable clamp and moving cable down about 1/2" varifed a slightly tighter butterfly seal . result was instant starting like my other magnums. re lubed choke cable and all linkage , for the start i want. also repacked my front wheel bearings , with LUCAS RED AND TACKY GREASE, old school , grease in palm and pull bearing through, i like the lucas grease with a very tacky adhesion to bearings, also in my mower decks, 550 drop point , quiet and very smooth. also added a few machine washers on wheels, and greased weight free front axel. just snooping around , lubed the pto lever to engine mount area, keeping it smooth. rechecked my battery tender wire in on the battery , letting me quick plug in as weather changes. all three of my horses share , what works and that keeps it simple , for reliability , and regular use. just basic stuff for me , but it works, pete 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
