    Wayne Shytle: Great response! Especially the wife's perfume! When all on my attack list fails I will try the perfume from the dollar store. Oh no, I have to spend the big bucks and get Chanel #5; better to go with the best for my "Cadillac", CC-108. Only problem with that is I will not...

    Gerry Ide: Just tried calling the Dover Service Station but they are closed. They are close only about 4 minutes away. Thanks for your effort in this regard. From your spark plug photos it appears the plug would qualify as a 'dry fouling'. I didn't get a chance to work on the CC 108 today...

    Gerry Ide: Morning, Tnx agn fer ur info. Not quite sure ethanol gas available to me in this location; anyhow might be better to use ethanol and set up the carb with it since I use the machine all year round. I would like to clarify that the PS (putrid smell) is not a constant. On rare...

    Thanks Gerry Ide, Nic Bextermueller and Jeremiah Chamberlin: Gerry, I have used gasoline and stabilizer that was new about 2-3 months ago. Used 3 tanks full this spring which is about 6 gallons. Will try gasoline without stabilizer and see what gives. I will try the clean gas and see if...

    Just as a follow up to: "No smoke, but terrible breath choking exhaust." This cc 180 has been used every year since 1973 and has not been stored for long periods of time and only then with proper "winter storage", stabilizer.

    Thanks guys. The "extremely foul", exhaust is not organic as this started about 2 years ago and is used exclusively for lawn mowing and carrying wood burning logs much of the year. Good idea though. Humm, barbecue while mowing! LOL The exhaust causes coughing while sitting on and using the...

    No smoke, but terrible breath choking exhaust. 1973 cc 108 with original engine replaced in the middle 1990's is running great. Starts on first starter turnover. It doesn't use abnormal oil in 25 hours of use and its next oil change. Carb has been adjusted as per original operation manual...

    Couple of hours searching for what size bolts are used to hold oil deflector plate to underside of 1973 cc 108 frame. The plate is mounted below engine and above deck raise and lower carriage. Tnx a lot.
