I would love a work bench like that - mine is generally the top of my TW150.

But Gardenkit, I can't see a clubhammer anywhere. I almost used mine to fix my two 4-mix machines the other day.

 

Is that two tappet nuts needed for the KM100:001_rolleyes::lol:

 

Bloody thing:thumbdown:

Oh, I have clubhammers and sledgehammers alright, along with 3/4 drive socket sets , spanners up to 2" AF, 36" stillsons, etc. All remnants of my ag engineering days and all in my big tool chests. have not used them for years though.

It's good to have some chuckles on here tonight this forum did take a bit of a nose dive earlier.

 

Always count on you two and this thread for a pickup.

Tappet nut would be good for the older KM100.

No, the newer 2011 machine very almost got pile-drived into the concrete yesterday.

For some reason it will work fine for a while but stop it and leave it for five minutes and it will then be impossible to start.

I expect you have tried it already, but the valve clearances are always an issue and should be checked first. Wide gaps mean that the valves are not open for long enough to completely scavenge the engine.

Check the plug gap, make sure its tighter rather than looser.

The mixture could be a little weak too, check the plug colour.
