My engine is broke?

I would be interested in a motor conversion thread also!

Great job, when your baby isn`t running life is not good.

I would LOVE you to post photos and commentary of your conversion. I am the proud owner of a 'new to me' Mule that has a sick engine blowing gobs of oil out of the exhaust. Considering I know nothing of it's history, the 2A042 generator engine option seems best. I bought 2 of the engines new from Gov Liquidations years ago getting ready for this day so now is the time for me.

I started getting my thoughts together on the conversion topic. I am going with some "lessons learned", "tools needed", "steps involved", and "locally available parts" types of information. There are about 25 photos. I have a total of 147 photos, so I am sure I will have photos of any particular process you might want to see. Can I get an opinion from some of the folks that have been around here longer than I have? Should I add to this topic- start another topic - break them up into seperate topics - something else? Thanks for the input.

I LIKE IT! Don't be afraid to have plenty of photos as they do wonders explaining what you are doing.
