Well, I spent the better part of the day working on the baler. I powerwashed the entire thing, then I did it again. I took the old engine off (TFD) and put the new "good running" one I have on it (TJD). Got the belts back on, greased every zerk I could find, and started piddling around with the engine (which attracted dad).
We managed to get it fired up and I deceded to FLOOR it on the engine and see if it would turn the baler while Barry stood at the back and "watched" everything, so thats what we did. It took about 10 tries of nearly choking the engine out to get it going, but we did!
Now you can walk up to it, light up the engine, floor it, and lock up the belts, and it goes right to working! TOO COOL!!!!! :) Here are before and after shots. The engine isn't running perfectly, it bogs down pretty badly when the baler is engaged, but I think that cleaning out the carb and checking the Dist. should fix all the problems! Now I can't wait to bale! Thanks, Bryce
