Thanks so much for giving my video a look. I you would like for me to do another ATV be sure to like this video so I know there is some interest. Hope you have a great week!

These are great alone the fence and really do a great job 😊

Good job 👍

Well here is one thing I did that may help. Mines would not run right either, I put carb back on but removed the ECU from the fitech, mounted in car and kept all the input sensors like 02 sensor, temp, vac, TPS, intake temp. Now I can data log carb, look at data, and change jets or step up springs as needed. Works great!

Does anyone remember a tube muffler with crimps in its shell. What can you tell me about it.

What a difference! I just ordered a Walker Exhaust Sounds FX for my '61 Olds. Looking for that quiet, calm sound. Plus, I think the one I ordered will fit way better than the Thrush Hush I have. The Thrush is quite large and doesn't look quite right on the Olds.

How would you restore the black gauge face where the white lettering is? Is that painted on or is there some backing that is white the shows through on the front where it shows "Temperature" etc.?

If you can’t fix this motor, we had good luck with a harbor freight replacement engine,

Extension is too.long

Torque the head bolts this is why it's leaking oil

Looking forward to the videos. Looks good.

In my experience it’s easy to find valve seating issues with a can of carb cleaner. I spray it in the intake and exhaust ports and look for leaks around the valves. I staked a loose valve seat in on my push mower about 10 years ago and It still runs fine.

They put alot of though into that spring design .

I’ve been waiting to try a Honda valve steam on a bs engine and see if it will hold value guide in place Maybe this summer I can check it out 😮

I had an e-series engine with 10 hours on it drop an exhaust valve seat, aka no compression. Briggs warranteed it. th-cam.com/video/V_CCmf_UXwU/w-d-xo.html go to 03:02 to see the seat.

valve lash

You could press a new valve guide into the head, or just get a new or good used head, and put it all back together! I would guess that the valve lash required adjustment which allowed the head to overheat and metal expansion caused the guide to slip instead of just burning the valve face. You could try just pressing it back into position with a C clamp and a couple of small blocks of wood on each end, lapping the valves into their seats, and putting it all back together with a proper valve adjustment and you might never have anymore trouble with it again. Since you tore it down to the bottom end, you’ll need a new sump gasket, too. Don’t just use gasket maker; the thickness of the sump gasket gives the crankshaft it’s proper end play. New mowers are too expensive to replace over an issue this small, plus the new ones are all ultra cost cutter junk these days; better to fix than switch if you can do the work yourself! You’ll likely get more use out of fixing your old Murray than if you bought a new one with the cheap Chinese made engines most of them have now!

nice carpet. where did you buy it ? and witch price ?

Did you use adhesive spray for your carpet? You could use it just in those spots where the carpet doesn't lay flat.

Did the AF paint it or the second owner? If it was a welder truck the rear springs are probably shot, welding rigs and all the cables, hoses, tools and equipment gets really heavy.

Getting ready for an install, so im chewing on every vid. Hows it running now?

I'm hoping to pick up a 67 corn binder this weekend 6 cyl. 1 barrel 4 speed 2wd looks to be in real good shape. Bright ugly yellow.lol basic truck no PS no AC no radio

what are you going to use for gauges? I like red - mine is red and looks awesome. '71 1310

My Dad had one with the 392 and a 4 speed with a granny gear when I was a teenager. Best truck he ever owned.

Fitech doesnt even know what code 105 is. How do you know it is something to do with the o2 sensor?

You need to work on presentation, lighting and sound specifically. Hope you stick with it, I love them ole vehicles.

Keep it original! The green paint is good, it is the vehicles history.

I'm in the same boat, thank you for the video

That's awesome 👌

What kind of issues were you having with the fi-tech?
