    Finally... the 147 is up and running

    I was able to locate a carb kit locally and rebuilt the carb this morning. Now she's up and running and drove it around the yard. Everything seems to be working except the brakes. It has forward and reverse, the hydraulics are working as well as the trencher. Now the tough decision.. Do I keep...

    No bubbles and after sitting overnight under water I'm happy to report that it does not have a leak.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    I was able to solder the hole and a couple of other areas that were suspicious and then filed them smooth. I'll keep it under water over night and see if I sealed the leak.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    Thank you for that information. I had the hardest time locating it until I looked under the "fuel & Tune up" section. Seems like it would be listed under the carburetor section. And they appear to be closed through Nov 13th. I'll check with my local small engine repair and see if they have the...

    Unless I'm missing it I don't see a float for the K321 carb on the CCS website.

    What is the best way to get gas out of a carb float? Other than matches or a torch..

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    Looks like that part number won't fit the K321- However KH-25-757-02 will fit. Will order it today.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    Thank you for the information. I opened the carb up this morning and the float is full of gas. Located the hole and will solder it once all the gas has dripped out. But it still needs a kit so I'll order one from the site you suggested. Thank you again.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    Right.. I knew that. But thank you for pointing it out. Too many pain pills and muscle relaxants.

    Carb rebuild kit for M 147 H

    I'm just beginning to feel like working on this project again. Had back surgery two weeks ago and even though I'm in pain from the surgery the results are positive. So I worked on my 147 H today. Installed a starter switch. The key won't engage the starter. No big deal. It worked. After I got...

    Low compression on K321 engine

    Excellent Kharvey. Thank you for that bit of information. From what I've researched, Vermeer did not put lights on their 147H trencher. Perhaps someone else on the forums can clarify if they have a trencher with lights. So the violet light will not be connected on my unit.

    Low compression on K321 engine

    Hi GC.. I did get the old PTO off and Charlie at CC Specialties hooked me up with a rebuilt. I've got the collar and bearing on. But the garden is yelling at me to pull weeds and build a couple of raised beds for the sweet potatoes. So having to split my time between projects. I also rebuilt the...

    Low compression on K321 engine

    LOL gchunnett. My brain still isn't engaged but I will persevere. All great ideas. Once I get a new set of hoses for my oxy/acetylene I'll try applying a little heat as was suggested and go from there. Still appreciate the ideas and responses. Thank you.
