Better. I measured the springs inserted into the plugs and added shims in the plugs to correct the length. Appx .25" and .20" as needed per original spring measurements Time to 60 psi maybe a little better but first start since dissassembly may not be an accurate assessment. Cold press on start...

Easy enough. I'll post the results for future generations! Thanks Jbulach!

Rusty: Pulled the regulator. I have the late model style Per 209-2815-210-34-2-2 Spring lengths Long - New is 4.650" mine 4.457" Short - New is 1.620" mine 1.359" Plunger OD - .8000 - .8010" mine .800 & .800 Can't measure spring tension or piston bore diameter but looks like I need to...

I noticed today there is an oil leak from there. Was too hot to look at so will tomorrow or next chance. Thanks for the advice. 'll pull the TM and read through it.

Yea I actually re-torqued the heads twice and they took off .010 to get them true. Both times I got movement in the nuts and I reset the valves which needed it. Before all this on start up it took 7 sec for 60 psi, after 7 seconds to 60. Before, after road trip psi dropped to about 30. There is...

Lot happened lately. I neglected my property for two years after getting Burt so this year I have/am spending a lot time getting things back to where I want. Mowing, trimming, tree trimmin, tree harvesting, herbicide & fertilizer application and moveing MORE rocks. So now. Months ago I cracked...

No soldier B. I’m done anyway. #5&6 exhaust was way too loose. Hopefully this will make a diff. Got it together and ideas good. Will drive it tomorrow.

Thanks for the input. pulling the radiator so I can get a socket on the crank for adjusting the valves after retorque. If it warms up a little more should get adjusted today, maybe tomorrow.

Didn't do any measuring.

I misspoke. I'm going for an LDS air cleaner not from an A3. From what I've read the LDS air cleaner is about 400CFM, LDTS450 CFM. Got one on order, NOS with filter $225.00. Plus connections and sheet metal.

Yes, but it's been months since I last ran it and I've done other maintenance. It does sound like there is s thump-thump-thump. around the air intake. Other sounds, clacking, seem to have gone away. Comparing the two different rockers, eyeballing I could see no difference in dimension or...

LR/MR/HR - Is that RPM?

Per several pieces of info/advice I changed my LDT intake rockers to LDS rockers as it was reported this was the single biggest part of the increased power. Test run seemed to indicate I need more air. While I am looking for more power, I really want to keep the temps down. I know I've got...
