Getting A Siezed Rototiller Engine Running
I put the rototiller engine back together and tried to see if it would run at all with a little bit of gas in the carburetor.
I manually moved the flywheel past the coil and got a good spark on the spark plug. This surprised me very much considering the rot and damage the mouse did inside the engine.
I lubed up the starter pulley and mechanism to make sure it has a longer life then put the engine shroud back on the engine.
I had to cut off the drive belt because it was not the right one for the engine. The clutch pulley had come off its shaft a bit and instead of fixing it properly someone bought a tighter belt and forced it onto the engine. This made the engine drive the wheels and the tines full time. This is dangerous.
Next I put a little bit of gas in the carburetor to see if the engine would fire up and run at all. It did run very nicely until the gas ran out.
The next problem was to get a new drive belt on the garden tiller and fix the clutch pulley. I ran into town for a larger drive belt.
I then took a socket and hammer and pounded the pulley back into place on its shaft.
I got the drive belt in place and got the clutch mechanism working nicely.
I also lubed up the entire throttle cable and got that working. It had been corroded and rusted solid. It works nicely now.
I am out of gas so I have to go get some fresh gas and continue working on this tomorrow.
