Got the tractor all reassembled today. Started it up and smelled gas. I was checking the gas hose by the fuel pump AND fuel was seeping out of the weep hole in the pump. Ordered a supposedly genuine Mikuni off Amazon.

The real deal Mikuni fuel pump arrived today and was installed. Hopefully both it and the fuel line will be good until I am no longer cutting grass

Did the quarterly test run of the generators Had to do a bit of fiddling on the NG conversion unit to get it running smoothly. The smaller propane unit fired right up and ran well. I guess it is the difference of factory built versus converted units.

Sometimes extra work pays off. After yesterday's fine tuning the NG converted generator fired right off today

I see on Amazon they now sell a magnetic dip stick for the westinghouse 7500 and 9500 generators. In fact there are a ton of different units for all kinds of generators.

I see Vegascarts is gearing up to produce a cart specific kit for the Yamaha G 16 and the HF 459. I had hoped Geoff would whittle out a billet connecting rod for the 459. I have tried to get the other 95 G 14 here on the island but so far the seller isn't talking. I would also like to get a G 16 with a dead engine, BUT there just does not seem to be all the dead gas carts around like before. A few years ago MrMike scored 3 of them in one season.

Wow I didn't see until now Vegascarts has the new installation kit for the Yamaha G 2-14 using the HF 459. I have a feeling that is going to be a big seller BUT when the G 16 kit is done that will be bigger yet.

OH NO we got snow. First time this year and only about an inch. I didn't believe the forecast as so many times it doesn't happen.
