Amazing job AJ! I was afraid that carburetor was too far gone but you made it look like new! This will be a fun series to watch, looking forward to the next video!
Had to put quite a bit of work into that unit.hope with rest of restoration of,motor.just keep doing your thing and carry on.be safe.great video as always.😎😎😎👍👍👍
A bit of water under the sandpaper will help it stick to the glass and keep it flat. I’m waiting for the day you get one of those laser rust removal system to remove old paint and rust. That carb is simple but surprisingly complicated, watching you remove so many parts had me thinking about how many things can get damaged. Nice job, the electroplating and powder coating is going the extra mile.
Thank you, I did notice the water seeping under the paper did help it to stick. Next time ill give it some more underneath. I love plating and powder coating, it gives it a factory finnish look.
If that is the Kohler KT17QS engine, the early versions suffered from poor lubrication of the connecting rod journals when operated on hill sides. An improved KT17 Series II engine was used starting at engine specification number 24300 in 1982.
Back when these machines were still little scaled down versions of actual tractors. Only one I would buy today is in the X series. Everything else is way over priced consumer tin.

Glad you enjoyed it! I am really exited about this one!
I love the parts plating . I need to learn how to do that myself ! 👍🏻
You can do it! I am sure someone or a company sell the kits nearby you.
@@AJRestoration awesome. Thanks for the info
Brought back good memories! Thanks!
Did you have a similar one?
@@AJRestoration My father did. It was my first carburetor rebuild
you definitely have the skills to take on this carb most people would throw it away because of the amount of rust that was in the fuel Bowl

Thank you buddy! It sure was a lot of work, before I took it apart I thought its going to be a easy 2 day job. Took me all week to do it.

Unfortunately this is the QS.
@@AJRestoration maybe it won’t give you any problems
Had my doubts for a minute, but as always, you have restored it beautifully. Are you going to restore entire tractor, or just the engine.
@@steveferguson1232 I will show the entire tractor.
Wondering why you chose not to fix the bump on the filter cover?
I noticed the bump only after the powder coating. I am really bad with fixing dents, it ends up looking worse, unless its necessary, I leave them be.

That is true, the newer "tractors" are all plastic junk.
What paint did you use?
