I do a lot of repairs on Wisconsin Air Cooled
engines. Mostly 2 cylinders, but also 1 cyls, or
V4"s. On manifolds I sandblast. and then spray
with "Rust-Oleum" "High Heat" which is made for
grills and wood stoves, and is rated for 1200
degrees. It comes in a12 oz spray can, and I"ve
had no problem with burn off. Priming is not
recommend, and I"ve only used it on shiny clean
sandblasted manifolds!
For the Zenith cast steel carbs, I disassemble
them and soak them in carb cleaner, then flush
them in hot water. Usually I carefully sandblast
them, being careful not to touch the insides
unless the bodies are rusty. I paint them with
"Valspar",(thats the brand available locally at
"Farm-Fleet" stores)Epoxy appiliance enemal, in
gloss black. Carbs are the assembled with a new
kit, but I clean all passages with a gas welding
tip cleaner--the set that has about 20 sizes of
fine wires. That epoxy paint won"t burn off and
is not affected by gasoline. For aluminum carbs
I use a good soak in carb cleaner...I use a"gunk"
brand that comes in a gallon can with a basket
inside, and just leave them as they come out,
unless terribly corroded or stained, in which
case I may lightly sand blast them at 50 PSI.

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are ... [Read Article]
