Re: OLD Onan used to be on a welder

Muffler is made from .050" 1/4 hard 347 stainless. Cut with waterjet. Should outlast the tractor, but with Case, who knows? I made it in a hurry, and could have done better, but I am about ready to start this thing before install, and that old muffler was probably going to just spew rust and sq...

Re: OLD Onan used to be on a welder

I have made some progress… I made a block off plate because of the lack of oil filter, and made a muffler as the original one was…rusty and modded. ——Metalguy

Re: In need of a CCKA short block.

Spike, I am holding the lovejoy on using a key, and set screws. I ground a flat on the key for the set screws to seat on. ---------Metalguy

Spike, I am currently using a tapered lovejoy I modded for the last tapered shaft ccka I installed in my first 646 with no issues. I see no reason why it would be a detriment at all. ------Metalguy

Re: In need of a CCKA short block.

The magneto set up had to go, and I put on the ignition from the original engine. I checked, and it has the correct flyball count, so no need to change that. I installed the original oil sender in the threaded hole in the block. Everything from the old block was easily transferred except the oil fil...

Re: In need of a CCKA short block.

Here are pics of the ignition system. Looks similar to old B+S magneto set ups, just two plug wires.

Re: OLD Onan used to be on a welder

This one has no provisions for an oil filter. On that side of the block it only has an allen screw in one hole, nothing else. I'm guessing that hole would be for an oil sender unit? I removed tghe oil filter housing from the side of the bad engine, and the block has channels machined for the filter,...

Re: OLD Onan used to be on a welder

As you can see, it also has a mechanical fuel pump on top by the carb. I’m guessing it is to prime for starting, as it has a knob to run it. Everything about this thing says old to me.——Metalguy
