Title: high altitude jets for woodmizer edger
Post by: spencerhenry on May 05, 2009, 11:58:05 PM
i have a wood mizer edger with the kohler 25hp v-twin. the lowest elevation i run at is 6200' but most of the time it is running at 8500'. it runs rich, which i have dealt with but right now i am edging some 2.5" x14" reclaimed doug-fir and need all the power i can get. anybody know part #'s or where to get jets, woodmizer doesnt have them.

  On my old Oliver I've soldered the hole and redrilled a little smaller being carefull not to get solder on the treads.   Steve

Spence......give Greg Brock a call here at Wood-Mizer. He may still have a high altitude kit or may be able to get one.
