double j Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 My linkJust got this "66 520, paid $650 and started tearing in to her. She has a lot of surface rust, but she runs already. Got the fuel and carb going tonight. Carb needsa a full rebuild and engine may need some timing adjustments, but she runs. Check out the pics for the blowout of the tailpipe.. Quote Link to comment

double j Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 welcome to ratsun we all love to look at pics and i am lazy so try to pics here rather then make my but go looking at them but it looks good Tried pasting a few pics, but it won't show them. Maybe I am a ratard... haha! The day i bought her, the owner told me he messed with this "little spring" and couldn't get it just right. I opened the bowl and pulled the input line and found this thing that used to be a spring, but looked more like a slinky some ADD 7 year old had gotten ahold of. It was all twisted and sprung, so I tweaked it a bit and finally got it back to working like a spring again, put it back and she works just fine. 10 minutes max! Quote Link to comment

double j Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 There is a lot to be said for BFH's!!!!! I tried to remove the drums but they would not budge, so I tapped on them with a framing hammer and some WD-40, nothing! Then I spent a whole day searching the net for "How to remove brake drums" and almost all hits said use the BFH! I used 3 cans of PB and a 5 pound sledge and they came right off! Thanks Internet posters! http://i1116.photobu...k_7-7-11002.jpg Quote Link to comment
