Just got through repairing the wiring on a MF 180 so we had lights for pulling a hayride. "Bout drove me crazy. I have taught electronics on the college level, been a ham radio operator for 30 years, and done commercial radio/siren/elecrtonics service on emergency vehicles of all types. Had the wiring diagram from the manual and it was DEAD Wrong... What"s more, it wasn"t drawn with conventional electrical symbols.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
