Long story/Short it's been kinked a couple times due to getting caught on the plow mount when I went to turn it full bore the opposite direction. Anyway.. I bought a line from tractor...

    Well I'm not a pro so.. And yeah, lots of things when done improperly are worse than before however even though they aren't perfect, my angles were rolled and the edges point where they are supposed to.

    Added turning vanes to the worst possible elbow ever

    According to my j-calcs this elbow I have was worth like 110'. This weekend I added some diy turning vanes to it, 4 of them. I can no way to measure any changes but it's gotta be better.

    Kohler Command Woes... Seeking carb advice

    Yeah I'm familiar with what to clean on these.. and originally I bought the chinese carb for parts for the original one. The o-rings on the slow speed jet were the ones I was talking about in the beginning that looked a bit boogered.

    Let me ask.. Right now the carb setup is like this: filter->filter platform->gasket->ptfe spacer->gasket->carb top->gasket->intake manifold When I tried starting yesterday it cranked and cranked and cranked.. never would catch fire. I sprayed a bit of brake cleaner into the throat, threw the...

    Kohler Command Woes... Seeking carb advice

    So in the pic below, first is idle speed and second is idle fuel adjusting needle. Those are the only two adjustments accessible (without removing welch plugs) on the old carb. The idle fuel needle was 1.3 rotated from bottom. (of note, this is the exact carb I have.. pics from ebay cause it's...

    Kohler Command Woes... Seeking carb advice

    My experiences has been mixed.. a Chinese carb for a TaoTao worked like a champ. This one, not so much. I have yet to find an actual service/rebuild/adjustment doc for this carb. The service manual on Kohlers site for the CH-series is surprisingly not super helpful when it comes to the carb and...

    Kohler Command Woes... Seeking carb advice

    Ok so I've got a Cub cadet 3184.. I believe made right before CC was bought out by MTD. In any case, Kohler CH18 with about 800-ish hours on her. When I got it it had the 42" deck and since then I've upgraded to the 48".. cause 6 more inches is worth it right? right? Sorry bad joke. Anyhoo, a...

    Pocket door question; removing the door?

    So I'm looking at if I remove the trim there's still some plywood between air and the trolley channel. I don't think it's going to be as cut and dry as a few think.

    Pocket door question; removing the door?

    So I'm going to try pushing that plastic 'lever' to the left. Pry upwards on that end of the door and try to pull the trolley forward and see if it unhooks.

    Oooo thanks for that pic. So mine have what appears to (possibly) be that latch except it's white plastic. I can feel it snap into place when I push it to the right.

    Pocket door question; removing the door?

    So yeah, downstairs we have a pocket door that I need to remove the door itself so I can access the drywall within. Now to paint a more accurate picture here.. the door is a 36x78 solid oak. The opening in trimmed in oak and for whatever reason, the trim is caulked. The old man/previous owner...
