    Frustrating Acceleration Problem

    The M151 is famous for a flat spot in the carb, the TM shows pulling the choke out until it smooth's out then loosen the cable clamp on the carb, push the choke cable back in and re tighten the clamp screw. There is a company in Florida called Brooks Engine Service that fixes this problem, they...

    Working On The M561 Gama Goat

    Good job, I suspect you are correct on the o ring. Since my pistons were seized in the sleeve I did not have to be as gentle. Thanks Keith for helping Mark, much appreciated.

    003A DC Regulator/Rectifier

    I'll try that and report back. When should the led come on?

    003A DC Regulator/Rectifier

    They have a flange on the top so I don't think you can drive them out. I think your best bet is to drill the broken piece out and re-tap the nut.

    Tom, the connection for those lines is directly below and centered under the governor housing, it comes out of the block as a T, the drain tube goes straight down and the air line comes out to the right with a tight bend before going down next to the drain tube. You can see the air line bend...

    I think it is the two brass elbows(45/53) next to the cold start spark plug, I will confirm when I get home.

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    HI Tom, teardown is complete, standing by for some parts for the rebuild. Also need to source one of those engine gasket kits you have and 2 more sets of rod bearings. The crank is smooth as silk, interior of the block is clean, no sludge. Only thing needing a cleaning is the water jacket...

    Operation "URGENT RESTORATION"

    No, it looks like the engine was almost new inside, I am even going to try and salvage at least one sleeve, all the rods and pistons. I am going to split the bad sleeve and try and recover what I can, the other two actually passed oil and the third was not stuck at all. I will know more...

    Yes, you should see two ports on the air box cover plate.

    Where to buy new starter mep-003a

    I see some on the big "E" from $120- $175, I would have my original rebuilt if was cost effective.

    Critique possible new 151A1 for a Mutt newby?

    Looks nice, do see some civvy wire mods in the engine bay. Looks clean, would need to see the under side to determine if it was cut, that can be hid pretty well on top. I have had a lot of these and this one looks better than average.
