The hydro motors from a zero turn mower would seem ideal for running tracks. They can spin in place, so why should you not have that capability? Find an old zero turn and get a track setup meant for a 4x4 truck.

I used to run VW air cooled things. Without the original mufflers, they were very annoying and noisy. Is this one of those?

I think that is an enclosed, solid axle. Not a very big one, but...

I have left boat batteries out all winter, no voltage in the spring. I have connected a battery to them long enough to have enough voltage to start the above charger, then unhooked the slave battery. The charger will start scrolling "charging 6 volts, 35%". As the percentage rises, the charger...

I use Schumaker 3 amp Battery Xtenders, charger, maintaines with auto desulfate mode. They sell two identical looking ones at different prices. The more expensive one says "desulfate" in the features on the product page or box...

Put your palm over the air filter end of the carb, sealinig it tight. Pull the rope. Pull it again. Did you feel strong suction on your hand? Did you get gas on your hand? Both answers should be yes. Help us help you.

I have waved unlit propane torches around under car hoods looking for vacuum leaks for decades. Some military trucks use a propane enrichment cold start system for years. I have used it to get flooded small engines to run when ether was not available. Yes, backfires can be exilerating.

I can get a picture, but it's just one of those things that some guys throw on the dash. Available at Hobo Fright, any parts store and Tractor Supply. They come in different sizes and do not produce enough current to overcharge. I literally have four different ones mounted on walls and poles...

We have a 420 on an old Wheel Horse"mud kart" with lights and a 12000 lb winch. The engine keeps the battery charged very well. In the pole barn where it lives, there is a small, like 12x4 inch solar maintainer on one of the poles that gets connected for long storage. Never fails to start. that...

Congratulations on your great progress!

You never sausage a place! SOB (South of the Border) I used to spend alot of time on I95.

Build the non hemi and sell the hemi specific parts to someone who needs them. If they are not being made, the performance parts will dry up soon, too. Go with the current engine if for no other reason than future parts availability.

Here's my suggestion...AGAIN... get a cable for a bicycle and use bicycle hardware...compatible parts do not have issues. Motorcycle cables and motorcycle hardware are more expensine and harder to find, but are much stronger. For the field expedient method, try to find a small washer or drill a...

You need to anchor that cable sheath. Look at bike brake levers for the hollow bolt that the sheath seats in ansd the cable passes through. Maybe your sister's bike has one you can look at.

I suggested a Briggs because they seem much more available than the other flatheads these days. I think they are good solid reliable engines.

5 horse Briggs flathead, belt clutch from Northen Tool or Tractor Supply, tires should be replaced just because of their age. Check steering and brakes. Replace cables as needed, lube moving parts and test drive it. If all is solid, ride it this summer and call it a painting project next winter.

Remove that spring, take it to Lowe's, Ace Hardware, Home Depot or your favorite big hardware store. Find their display of wire goods. Look for a spring that is longer but has thinner coils. That will give you more pedal and it won't bottom out on the spring so soon. A thinner spring can be...

That thing will kill somebody.
