To Rick and all.
Plow day is still on for Oct.22. Been getting motel prices and what not. Sorry for the delay. I've been real busy between work and the 782 smoker. I changed rear ends this weekend on the 782. The old one was full of cracks and busted aluminum. It leaked all over the garage. My wife won't go in there now due to the smell of Hytran and diesel exhaust. Should have tried that earlier.

adrian,
I use Mobil one synthetic in my car; the P.O. of it, has used it as well. It seems to work nice. I know that they have a 0 weight, 5w-30,10w-30, then think it goes to 15w-40, 20w-30? They don't have a straight 30w. I wish they did, I'd use it in my car as well. I use the 10w-30 and would say it pours more like water than oil. But I guess it works good. It's been keeping my car engine alive!. Also I think it stinks worse than regular motor oil when it burn... like on a header.

- Scott Tanner... Can't even see the Cub in this mess..
I have used 5W-50 synthetic in my 149 for 6+ years... look back a few posts and there is a fuzzy pic of a clean crankcase... I switched primarily so I could start the beast in below 0 weather...

Norm,
You have mentioned the weight difference in the two pistons. Also to be considered is the fact that the rebored cylinder with the fresh rings and piston will seal better (producing more power) and have a larger displacement (producing more power). With half of the cylinders in the engine working better and having more reciprocating weight, I would expect a vibration. All these things are measured in small amounts, but they add up.
If it was my engine, I would bore and refit both cylinders. I wouldn't want to go through another teardown to bore the other cylinder later.

Bruce N., ah! I pictured a half dozen or so trees. 250 trees would require a lot of work not to mention several tons of mulch. As for the mice, one word: cats! I have two, one of which will bring me the mice, gophers and rabbits that he kills and trade them in for a small cat treat or 2, apparently he prefers the taste of the treat.

And looking in the Gates catalog, green belts aren't available that long (longest 4L is #6899 - 99", 3L is #6774 - 74") - haven't we flagellated that deceased equine already?
Interesting application notes:
PoweRated belts are suitable for outdoor power equipment, appliances and industrial applications where FHP belts are typically used.
and...
These green belts are an alternative to conventional light-duty belts, with high performance construction delivering more horsepower, less stretch and providing longer service life.
Doesn't sound like they'd be good as a twisty mower or tiller belt anyway...

Since it's been awhile since I said hello here, I just thought I'd say hi!
Digger speaking of the beauty of cubs, I just had to pull off the road yesterday and take a couple photos of these two cubs setting behind glass store front in Tama Iowa.
While they are slightly off topic here, you know they share tranny parts with some of our cub cadets.

Norm I'd recomend doing both side. but if you only want to one I don't think theres enough weight difference in the piston to matter. but if you were concerend you could weigh both pistons on a grams scale & lighten the heavier piston. theres alot of meat inside the piston that can be removed.

An S/G is polarized when you start the engine. The S/G might be from an OT like JD, whose S/G turns the other way. Or the field coils were replaced with the wrong ones during a S/G rebuild. there might be more to it than this!

He lost the bolts. So that means you still have the nuts, no?
Since most of us don't drive our Originals to work, we can't run out to the parking lot and check for ya
So how'd you get so far into forum membership without me ragging on you to buy a parts list (which would show all fasteners required)?
I'll check my TC-113 when I get home if nobody does so sooner...

Bryan,
Yes, my boy lost 'em all. Last I know, they were in an old coffee can (Maxwell House, specifically). Don't have a parts list- can't deny that. Didn't know I would need something like that untill these bolts came up missing.
Actually Bryan, I'm somewhat of a "fan" of yours. I've looked at your restoration pics of your original on your website. Very nice.
