January 28 - February 5, 2022

Lots of work by the Akin brothers resulted in the first firing of the Onan engine!

Update from Casey

Gunk in the carburetor

Nearing completion!

Camp Rose

I thought my gas tank was a total loss, but Casey gave some things to try.

More on this later...

Full of gunk.

Akin Brothers Locomotive Works

Cody got the carburetor and a clutch installed.

New alternator

Home-made bracket for the new alternator

Wiring in the alternator and mounting the heat shield.

New air filter

Wired-up test gauges

Casey's wiring diagram for the sensors and gauges.

That ... is ... just... BEAUTIFUL!!

THE FIRST FIRING!

Dip switch settings on the Tachometer for a 2 cylinder engine.

For a parting shot, the guys gave me a chuckle.

My son may like this idea, but it'll NEVER happen!
