They should have made the word that describes the ailment "dyslexia" a palindrome so it would be easier for everyone to read...

Kraig,

Thanks for continuing to try to help me with my belly blade. I will have to look at mine again, but I after seeing the Covina pic I'm still thinking mine is a Daly. I have not forgotten to post up some more pics, just haven't gotten to it. I will try to get to that this weekend.

Talk about a "poser shot" !

What is the correct spark plug gap for a K321? I have looked and have not seen a clear answer. I want to make sure I have my new Autolite 216 gapped correctly.

Scott, the correct answer per my Field Manual is .025 in. Kentuck sent you a multi guess test with the wrong answer. could have been A which says 'battery' or C for gassius fuels, but I'm quite sure others will answer up soon.

 

[mbounds]

If we are going to post plug gaps, we ought to use the correct ones. Here is the Specifications page from the 1x6/7 Operators Manual and it doesn't say anything about .035 anything.

How do you identify an o/s piston? I seem to remember the top of the piston was marked according to its size, but I can't find it anywhere in any of the manuals. Thanks

 

[theaton]

David G, My k301 has a .010 oversize. The .010 is stamped on top of the piston, at least on mine it is.
