It runs smooth as can be! As most of you know with the posts
I've had over the last few weeks I've been working on my gas
1800c. Last fall hauling wagons chopping corn it started
running like crap. This week the weather got nice and I started
working on it. I put new plugs wires cap rotor electronic ignition
and today new intake and exhaust gaskets. The gaskets were
my main culprit I think. I called the old Oliver dealer and he
had them in stock. I called my uncle this morning and he ran
over for me so by the time I was done milking and doing
morning chores he was back with the gaskets. I pulled the
manifold and cleaned the ports on the head and manifold and
put it back together. Wow, what a difference. I don't think it's
run this good since I bought it. I idled it down to 500 rpm and it
runs smooth and purrs like a kitten. My uncle is a ih man but
was smiling ear to ear. He says there isn't a better sounding
engine than a good running Waukesha engine, nice and
smooth. I still want to time it one more time before its ready for
field work this spring. Thanks to those that answered some of
my posts.
