We Need An SA-200 Info/FAQ Sticky
ZTFab, think we can get a sticky up with SA 200 FAQ's. Part Numbers, distributors, general info and links.
Some basic motor part numbers here.
Spark Plugs(you need 4 ) Champion D-16 gap .025
Oil Filter, Fram PB50, WIX 51050, NAPA 1050, Baldwin B50
Head Gasket, Fel-Pro 7183PT
Carb kit for a Marvel carb, NAPA 2-1401
A great SA-200 Link www.weldmart.com
If we can sticky all this stuff that would be great.

Re: We Need An SA-200 Info/FAQ Sticky
I second that!
Torque specifications would be good also......

Re: We Need An SA-200 Info/FAQ Sticky
I think that would be cool as well.
Isn't it amazing the popularity of the SA-200, especially the old one. It's almost like a cult following or something. I used to think they couldn't be that special, what's so special about them. People say they are the best welders made bla,bla. That was before I owned one. Now I drive around and look for another old one to pull out of the weeds and fix. I've had mine running for two months, and have used it at least 5 times a week after work and on Sat. I don't know how I got along with out it. I know eventually I'll run out of stuff to weld, and it'll go back under the shed, but I'll never not have one.

Re: We Need An SA-200 Info/FAQ Sticky
I Was working a job in Baton Rouge and this pipe welder told me about the sa-200 "Red Face" and I knew I had to get one. Later, My GF on another job told me he had one at his house in TX and said if I came down, he would give it to me. The engine was locked up. Anyway, on my way to TX, I found another one on a trailer and bought it for $500.00 and brought both home. On the way home, I found another for $400.00, which I will pick up within the next month. I have the one on the trailer dismantled and will start on an engine rebuild as soon as I can. I have a strong background in auto engine repair, and 20 years of body repair and paint (Air Force). I plan to rebuild all of them and sell one or two. One thing I can say for sure, they are very well made. I hope to move into pipe welding soon but need some further instruction in getting the root down..............

Re: We Need An SA-200 Info/FAQ Sticky
I just "rebuilt" the carb on one I just picked up with 2 cans of carb cleaner. It runs and welds ok, but needs a real rebuild in the future.

I dont know about the bosch mags, but I recomend you use genuine Fairbanks parts for Fairbanks mags. They cost more but fit perfectly and last the longest.

Be sure to set the float level on a TSX Marvel Schebler carb at 1/4" with the gasket instaled.

Hi all, I'm new here, just found this group. I've owned a Lincoln SA-200 for about 12 years. I've done considerable work on mine, including new rings, bearings, gaskets, brushes, etc. I also grafted a waterpump from a 1983 mazda RX-7 on to my welder. The old one had quit working/leaked when the previous owner had it, with parts hard to find, I took the old one off and put a pulley on in it's place and put a water pump off the mazda on it and drove it with a belt, it works great.
Tozzi, I don't think your parts list will work for my SA-200.
My SA-200 has a Hercules IXB5 engine in it. The casting date of the engine is 11-27-1939. It takes Champion W-20 spark plugs. The Fel-Pro gasket set is part number FS 7557 S-2. Rings for it are Sealed Power SP 617X or TRW T1387X
IXB5 firing order is 1243 spark plug gap =.025 Breaker point gap =.020 ignition timing mark is DC 1-4 on the flywheel Cylinder head torque = 40 ft lbs.
Valve seat Angle is 30 degrees valve clearance is .006 HOT for intake and .008 HOT for exhaust valves Outer minimum valve spring lbs @ inch length is 42lbs @ 1 3/16 in (no inner spring is used)
IXB5 piston clearnace is .0035, wrist pin diameter is.75 Ring end gap minimum is .015 for COMP and OIL Rod bearings shaft diameter 1.747-1.748 rod bearing clearance is .991-.0015 Rod bolt torque is 42 ft lbs. main bearings shaft diameter is 1.987-1.988 main bearing clearance is .002-.0025 and main bolt torque is 77ft lbs
IXB5 bore and stroke is 3 1/4 X 4 Displacement is 133 Cu In. Compression ratio is 6.50 HP is 46 @3200 RPM torque is 92 ft lbs @ 1800 RPM Normal oil pressure is 20 lbs oil capacity is about 5-6 quarts on my model
I have a book with specs in it for the Hercules motors and others plus I wrote down information I collected while rebuilding the engine.
This welder is so old, it doesn't have a code. It's a redface machine though. I called/go by Lincoln or local repair/parts house and they ask me for a code, I tell them it doesn't have one and then they give me this dumb look, like they don't know what to do and they act shocked that there is no code. I tell them it's a late 1939 model, then they understand....lol
The hand crank on it still works, last time I fired her up, she welded like a dream, prettiest welds I've ever seen. I replaced the brushes in the generator so that made all the difference.
Hope this info helps someone out there. I've been all through this machine. I had two others , one of which I parted out and used some parts from it for the 39 model, the other I sold along with part of the parts machine (both those machines were newer than the 39 model I have, I looked up the casting dates on the side of the engine block.
