Couldn't hold the nut Max, so it got JB Weld so see how that goes. Strange thing though the tank had about half a litre of what looed and smelt like old engine oil in it. Glad I pulled the tank off to seal up the nut and I was able to get all that gunk out of it.I certainly would prefer not to have to make up these weights for these PT's but I see in the future F/C's might be hard to get and all we have left is PT's to fit on these slashers so I put the hours I have spent on it as research for the future
Anyway just an update the PT motor on a 24 is an excellent motor but it requires the extra weight on the crank. This one makes not the slightest attempt to kickback and it is running a decomp valve with no restrictor in it. Next time I will try one with half the weight in it, I will make the pipe 18mm long and fill that with lead and see how close it gets to kicking back. It is all trial and error to get it right
