    Missing key from brake hub

    Thanks! Picked up some 1/4” from my hardware store and cut a chunk that fit in there. Seems to be holding. The set screw on the brake hub is tripped so I’m getting a new brake hub in the mail. Thanks!

    Hey! Just picked up a yerf with 6hp h660-71131c It’s cold blooded but won’t run after 5 minutes. Seems to be just crap out, sputter a little bit and then it is extremely hard if at all possible to restart. Wondering if anyone has troubleshooting tips? I was thinking piston rings maybe but...
