    REDUCED! BME102, freshly rebuilt by Tom at BME $445

    Was sent to BME by previous owner for inspection before I would buy it, Tom said go for it and then replaced the bearings and rings for me. "Good as new" was how he described it when he was done. Bought it for a 37% BME Ultimate but the project didn't happen so I never ran the engine. Comes...

    Engine Gurus Unite -> I need HELP!

    are you sure the rings that are in there aren't stuck in their grooves from lack of use? shoot some carb cleaner in there and let it soak in to loosen them or just pull the head and look at them. did you replace the gasket between the carb and insulator block? the gasket between the insulator...

    Epoxy...favorite mixing cups?

    sometimes, it depends on how much time i need and how much time i've got. i think it's called "pot life"...from the West Systems website http://www.westsystem.com/ss/epoxy-chemistry/ This means that the epoxy in a cup will cure more quickly than epoxy that has been allowed to flow out over a...

    Epoxy...favorite mixing cups?

    hmm, i messed that up, didn't i. i haven't used t-88 in a while but i was using a triple beam balance scale at the time.....that's what's nice about West System actually, the pumps meter it out in perfect quantities but it's expensive and you waste a lot when working on small parts. most small...

    Epoxy...favorite mixing cups?

    i'll have to swing by a craft store and see about those little cups you guys are using. i've been using cardboard and stuff too but for bigger batches you've got to have a system in place.

    Epoxy...favorite mixing cups?

    not digging, flying home tonight the salads had plastic covers over them and i'm always looking at stuff like that saying, "Can I mix epoxy in these?" so I brought two of them home in my bag to try. figured I'd throw it out there to see what you guys use. plastic cups that don't have smooth...

    Epoxy...favorite mixing cups?

    I've got a few favorites I like to use......the plastic cups that come with Tide detergent, the plastic containers that rolls of electrical tape come in, the cup covers that they use in hotel rooms to make it look like the drinking glasses aren't actually all nasty inside..... what are you guys...

    **sticky** Walbro service and tuning manual

    i had a chance to read it today, it's nice to know if you've got the light brown diaphragm pump membrane you're good to use gasoline with ethanol. lots of other good stuff about how the engines/carbs work. in the end though, if you're having carb problems it'll probably be cheaper to throw a...
