 An engine is now in the frame.   Fitting the Wirges! She won't be pretty, but.....not quite a 40 footer. |

I have just finished mounting the carbs and putting fuel in the tank. One carb had to come back off due to a stuck float valve but it is ready to kick. Wish me luck.

A little "backyard mechanic" tip... Take a very small amount of tooth paste on one of those round/pointed tooth brushes and gently clean the float valve seat with it. Afterwards flush with brake clean and pressure test with vacuum pump. Sometimes you get lucky and they will not stick anymore and will still seal  The first brush in photo |

Good to hear! Will the H1 ever get used again? It runs, it is not road worthy yet. Don't rush me. |
