Some newer pics with my 18 Special fairly clean, and 50 years of dirt cleaned out of the base etc. Height adjuster lubed and working well. I have not found any major issues so its all good. I have a new air filter snorkel and am sourcing the other parts needed, not to many luckily.
It is original (paint etc) so this will make it easy when I go to paint it up. Hopefully soon.
I have not yet taken the motor off the base but I am still going over it properly, and will when it comes time to paint.
