			<description><![CDATA[I picked this up locally on the week end<br><br> <img src="https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.auhttps://outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2015/10/full-8880-24646-image.jpg" alt="[Linked Image]" class="post-image" style="height:auto!important;max-width:100%!important;"/><br><br>Engine number -  <br><br>Mk10 - 522/106411D<br><br>It's an English made engine and complete bar it's air filter/strangler.  I love the name strangler, choke is only a little more pc.  A change of oil and a clean up of the points was a little overdue, carb was spotless but the fuel tank was loaded with crud and rust.  Cleaned all that mess up and it runs well, a little smoky so it will get an overhaul<br><br>  [video]<div class="video-container"><iframe frameborder="0" width="853" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/lMTB0rGygiU?wmode=opaque&rel=0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>[/video]  <br><br>I wonder about the smoke, it is possible that after sitting maybe for 10 years or more ? That the rings are gummed up and not doing there job.  i will be interested to see when I pull it down.<br><br>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If you can't get a camshaft Joe, with a large amount of trouble you can rebuild the worn out one. However the only way I've known the process to be done involved a milling machine and a dividing head. The missing metal is replaced by welding, then you need to make a larger than full size drawing of the lobe you want to end up with (probably the same as the surviving lobe, but rotated on the shaft). On the drawing you construct a series of horizontal lines tangent to the cam's surface, with the cam rotated a few more degrees each time, and measure the height of each horizontal line. Then you mount the real camshaft in the dividing head, and mill all of those horizontals you drew, at the measured heights. When you've done that you have a cam lobe made up of a multitude of tiny flats. To finish it, you mount a Powerfile (little hand-held belt sander) on a pivot at the handle end, and lower it onto the lobe as you rotate the camshaft, to generate a smoothed surface. I've seen it done, and it worked well, but I haven't done it myself.<br><br>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I've been searching through the site looking for info on the Sloper engine used on Ransome Marquis mowers and came across this thread.  Did the workshop manual get uploaded as I can't see it in the engine manuals download area.  Does anyone know?<br><br>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Just did a cross reference. Might just go with a G200 or a GX160. Both are about the same HP as the Mk25 and half the weight.<br>Will just keep the Mk25HS there so it could go back on to make the machine original again.<br><br>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[You might try sending a PM to Joe Brown, one of our moderators. Joe posted some very interesting information on J.A.P. engines in an early thread here (2002 - you can find it with a search), and has some personal experience with them. I have a few old documents on J.A.P. four-stroke engines, but nothing on two-strokes.<br><br>]]></description>
