Hello.I just tore the head off my BGS w/6 cyl.Hurc. engine so I could free up the stuck valves.Head is all cleaned,got new head gasket,ready to assemble.One question.Do any of the head bolts screw into the water jacket and require sealant?Also,anybody know of a source for Tillitson carb.parts,or a carb. that will fit this machine?Thanks.

I don't believe the bolts go into the water jacket. Run a tap through them to clean up the threads.

Not sure where to find Tillotson parts. Do a search and let me know if you find them so I can add it to the parts supply list.
