    BF100 out of time?

    Thanks guys, I had the carb soaking for 3 days. They’re simple enough, guess I could take it back apart and try again. BTW the carb was spotless inside the first time I took it apart. I’ll try to find that passageway

    BF100 out of time?

    Ok I’m starting to get stumped. Soaked the carb and nothing changed. Looked like the timing might be off a tooth so changed that and it wouldn’t start. Not sure where to go next?

    BF100 out of time?

    The guy I bought it from had cancer, the guy who gave it to him had the same cancer and died so I doubt it is anything big, so far any issues I have had are simple. I have no idea how long it was stored but it was serviced before it was, pretty apparent. I think like Alumarine suggested the next...

    BF100 out of time?

    I’ll try cleaning the carb first. This is a new-to-me motor, just got it running. Runs fine at idle

    BF100 out of time?

    So she is running now but bogs when I give her gas. I’m thinking it may be out of time? And I’m still trying to find the correct impeller for her so I can replace it, it is apparently a pre-80’s motor.

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Looks like Sierra doesn’t make parts for this motor?

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Seems to be working just fine to me but I’m still replacing it because I have no idea how long this motor was sitting

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Yeah I was gonna ask about Sierra. I’ll dig into the manual tonight to see what else is involved, looks like I may need gaskets and other things. Just hope I get the right one, I plugged my serial number into Honda Marine and nothing came up! 🙄 I sid some research and the best I could date it...

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    I do remember reading that they should be replaced if they have been stored for a while. Should I go OEM or would aftermarket be ok? I only ran the motor maybe 10-15 seconds at a time at most, hope that didn’t screw anything up!

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Yeah I noticed the intakes look way different from what I’m used to seeing, and I obviously haven’t seen a lot! Might have to look into a barrel, would like to here her run for a while before I take her out

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    It’s alive! It’s alive! Decided to set the points to the correct setting and try again, had to be coaxed for a bit but she’s finally running! Couldn’t run her very long because I don’t have a set of muffs, but sounds great! Thanks again for all your help and patience! 👍

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    So I’m trying to make sure this thing is in time. The grainy pdf manual that is hard to read says when the marks line up on the flywheel and the pulley the points should barely start to open. First, it’s hard to watch them line up when one of the supports for the pull start is in the way...

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Well my bad, condenser is good! Just got the capacitance meter and it is right there at 24-25 micro farad. I guess the next thing to check would be the coil?

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    I’ll have to check that as well since I had to take the belt off and remove the pulley to get to the consdenser, thanks for bringing that to my attention!

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    I ordered a capacitance meter to make sure this thing is dead, and found a .24 microfarad condenser on Rock Auto, hopefully this will cure things. And checked the gap on the points, it was too toght so I’ll adjust when i put it back together. Thanks for your help, I will post an update

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    Did some messing around today, think the condenser is bad. And they are obsolete so good luck finding one 🙄

    What do these 2 rubber hoses go to?

    You were right, there was a rubber cover on top of the pulley that exposes the points and condenser through a little window in the pulley itself. Points look nice and clean, I can’t find anything in the manual I downloaded as far as a setting though. I disconnected the stop button and still no...
