update:
So the engine in the 127 had this window.
I have a running 127 with a black engine so a heart transplant was performed.
I reused some of the engine sheetmetal cause I like yellow better than black.
The newer engine head is different and so I had to use the black muffler hanging tin.
Notice the muffler clamp.it is a two-piece 1.375" steel set collar. Just because I had one.
I put one of those new aftermarket carbs on it too. I need to adjust the throttle cable cause it runs at mid range when throttle lever is on low.
Other pictures show what it looked like under the fender-seat-footrest pan before and after I pushed and brushed off the build up of grass and dirt.
I have yet to wash any of the tractor, what you see is unwashed.
And I have yet to hit it anywhere with new paint.
Is that level of hytran about right? I stuck a stick down to the bottom and moved it a bit to bring up sludge. There was some on about the last 1/4" of the stick. Rubbed it between the fingers to feel for grit and it was nice and slimey.
I think the tranny trunnion thingy plate needs to be built up and reworked with straight edges around the spring and washers though.
