    Regulator trouble

    Regulator? Are you referring to the governor? It is located at the rear of the engine connected to the carburetor by a linkage. If so, start by lubricating the pivot points. If that does not work, remove it from the linkage, remove the 4 screws that hold it to the block. If it is filled...

    Transplant for Mule

    The generator motor is the next best thing to an original mule crate motor. The spin on filter set up is the way to go as the canister set up on the original motors can be tricky on the reinstall and prone to leaks. I have on each of my 3 mules. It is not the correct piece but it sure makes...
