well I was able to get a wire up in all the jets of the carb - still no go

just as I was testing it for the last time, the mailman showed up with my $22 Ebay carb

popped it on and it started on the second pull

I added a fuel shut off valve and a fuel filter.

gonna change the oil and I should be good to go until next winter anyways.

have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings
