Re: a heartfelt thanks
So where did you put the pump.? On the links that were sent to me with photos, it says that there is no room to mount a pump on a cd14 5.5hp. It says there is room 7hp and above but not on the 5.5 If you did get one mounted on a 5.5 1957 cd14, a photograph of how you did it would be helpful in the event I have to do the same thing.
One other thing.. What is the shut down procedure for this motor?. I noticed that when I just pulled the gas line plug, the engine ran for a minute then died, However, there was still a full fuel bowl. Does this bowl have to be drained if it is not going to be used for a while? If so, I better order in some new bowl gaskets because I just cant keep taking the bowl off and on using the same gasket. There is a drain plug screw on the carb but it is a bugger to get to and if that tiny screw drops it will go into never never land. Then putting it back in was a pane also. Would appreciate a few comments on this.
Thanks.
