What's on your bench today?

[GardenKit]

Bone dry. Only place I will find is in the carb, but not enough to see if there is oil in it.

If its a lean sieze then ther should still be an oily film over the iinside of the crankcase and over the crank and rod.

 

If it was run accidentally on neat petrol it will be a lubeless sieze and every thing will have been solvent washed by the neat petrol and be totally dry.

Just a quick one

in my quest to get my workshop kitted out

What Tach tester do you use and my that model ?

thanks again in advance

I have a couple.

 

One is the Stihl one, forget the exact model at present. It can be used either with a wire pickup, or inductively, but to be fair I find the inductive mode a bit hit and miss, but when testing something like a 200t i just poke some of the wire through the cover so that it touches the HT lead and 'bingo'

 

I have just bought a Briggs and Stratton one. its a Tiny Tach but quite a large one. It works well inductively and will pick up a signal through engine cowlings, either from the plug or the coil. If you can't get it in a position to see the 'live' reading, you just press the button and it holds the max reading on the screen. But the display is difficult to see at certain angles.

And a quick check of the Briggs and Stratton tools catalogue indicates that my Briggs one is indeed a Tiny Tach 20K workshop version!
