Alright! I got my listeroid! As mentioned it is a Lovson 12/2 new in crate. I picked it up from Magnolia Jack (very nice fellow). The fuel tank had been crushed, but the crate was not damaged, so it must have happened at the factory before or during the crating process (bas#@%ds). Good grief these things are heavy. It will be about a month before I can set it up (new house not quite ready) but until then I will study and inspect, and get the gennie and pulley. Jack had a 6/1 that was running and he said there was no casting sand or other problems during his inspection. It sounded sweet and quiet even on the little stock muffler. Thanks to those of you that have offered advice. I'm sure I will have more questions.

order georges cd,,, and study it.

Have sent the payment to him today! I am looking for as much info as I can get!

and.... if i were you,,,,, i would strip the thing to all its little pieces
every thing would be cleaned, hot tanked, pressure washed, dried, inspected
blueprinted, repainted and reassembled to the highest standard i could attain.

I am mechanically inclined so I think I can handle this. Except for the blueprinting, may need some help there as I do not have the proper tools.

this assumes of course that the engine is new in a crate as shipped from india, not one that has been gone
thru and at least inspected.

It is new from India and needs complete setup!
