Re: Some sad news

Ted loved his 610 West Bends. They ran very well. Was a long time fixture under the shade tree by the coolers at The Big One until his health deteriorated to the point the cross country trip was just to much.

Re: Needed application and size for Wiseco 1013RS L Ring

1013 PS is Komet A, 50.8mm bore piston.

Don't see any "RS". Might be ring standard.

Do not see the 1040-1050

Wiseco catalog #9.

Re: Whistler go karts

I remember the ad's but can't say I have seen one. Something like that was probably short lived & will only be found in the local area. Before #metoo there were more than 300 kart manufacturers in 1962 and dropped like a rock shortly after.

Re: Recoil Starter rebuild/dissasembly instructions?

Use belts so I had to get out the manual. Probably stuff at the racing chain saw sites also. To disassemble the recoil started, unbolt from engine. Hold handle and outer cover that has 2 bolts.
