Bit of an update. Just waiting on parts. Gasket and carb kits arrived. Still waiting on the 6203 2rs bearings(or is it 6302?). Found I can get new tires through Tractor Supply pretty reasonably. Took the frame to the shop to clean it with our heated pressure washer. Also ran the short block through the parts washer. It was gross.
Probably will do the engine over the weekend, then off to Puerto Rico for work.
I know, I know. It's a dirty thankless job but someone has to do it. They had to twist my arm. I had to help, though.
