Guest Launchpad Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Any issues? Original motor? Looks like it wants you to take it to the trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin28 Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 here are some additional pictures. I don't think there are any issues. I know the owners were car people and had Art Cazeault service the Franklin when ever it needed any work. My goal is to change fluids, flush out gas tank , lines, etc.and get it running. However this will not happen until after the Trek as I just don't have the time right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin28 Posted July 24, 2016 Author Share Posted July 24, 2016 The spare carburetor shown is the correct one for the car as shown on page 801 in the series 10 parts book. The note says it is not suitable for series 9 or 10A Franklins. I think it is a Wilkenson Carburetor. Bob Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin28 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 Update 9 /27/17 I ended up taking the engine apart as I found mice evidence in the exhaust manifold. I cut new valve seats, ground valves which are new SS valves. Guides are tight. Honed cylinders and installed new rings and cleaned up all upper end parts, push rods, tubes rocker arms and boxes, etc.. Dropped the pan which looked quite clean, no sludge. Removed one rod cap and inspected both rod bearing and crank and both look great. Could not see any wear. Ran keroseen then oil through the oil pump with an electric drill to check pump and fludh out pump and passages then ran oil through the system. Car now starts and runs and shifts great. Seems to have plenty of power and stops well . I plan on taking the car to Hershey next week to sell it. I will put it in the car corral if I can get a spot. Otherwise it will be with me and Tom Kidd in the chocolate field CK 60 space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
