restoration of tecumseh 6hp

#1
hey guys im new here id like to start off by posting my restored tecumseh.

i got it with a go kart for $50. i assume it hasnt run in at least 10 years, judging by the spider nests and rust everywhere. if it was left outside any longer it might have not been saveable!

well its not perfect and not done but i think pretty good for a 14 year old :laugh:

i used dupli color paint and cleaned and reused all gaskets and parts. everything was cleaned and fixed. it was missing the carby so i will TIG up a custom manifold to work with a b&s carb. as for exhaust im not sure yet, but i might use a briggs muffler. the spark was not there so i got an electronic module that i still need to mess with a little.

heres the before:


after (and kind of in progress)


this motor will be going in a super modified electric dirt bike.
