Names Red Im new to posting but been pokin about here for some time now
Fab site Im very glad for its being yeah
Ive an old HK30 H4-4A It's on a SCOTT BONNAR greens mower.
The poor old thing was parked under a tree for Christ knows how long.
Filthy air cleaner, no muffler, carby full of crud, had to dig the bowl out.
So the fins were jammed packed with grass dust dirt and oil
spent three hours alone cleaning the carby up.
Surprisingly the bore was nice; the valves neat as and the thing turns over lovely
I stripped every thing off it n scrubbed it up nice,
lapped the valves, put her all back together with out paint as I wanted to see how she ran before I went to the trouble.
Well it fired first pull.... youuu lil bewdy
but wouldn't rev out
Ive re-cleaned the carby and checked the governor and everything is good o.
I think the bottom of the shaft that the main jet screws into to retain the bowl has corroded some were the square notch is normally to about twice its size.... I put a plastic sleeve around it and it helped.
The thing will run and free rev as long as I hold my finger over the intake of the air filter mount closing the hole by 3/4's
It will idle nice and free rev nicely although I feel that just a little muted as the timing wasn't absolutely spot on as I did it bushy style
I'm also wishing to see how the internal governor gears are aligned. I've searched this site through many, many threads and haven't found a great deal about them or pictorials on the innards on governors for H30s.
Maybe someone could point me in the right direction.
I did take the carby off another motor going well and it worked a treat on the motor I'm currently working on...
the only thing I didn't do to the carby was remove the welch plug and do the tip cleaner thing there...
In lieu of the fact that mostly all seems reasonably well, could anyone suggest other things for me to try with my carby?
Also would some one in the know mind if I was to ring them n talk in person? My number 0408 348 232 text or ring and I will ring you back to save you the money as I've a business number.
I'm chuffed with these little motors to cop sooo much neglect and still get up and have a go with little more that a clean up is pretty bloody good ay!
Thank you in advance for any help
Great site yeah
Cheers, The Redfella
