So after fighting with the recoil starter for 2 weeks, I finally got the thing put back together, and got this motor started. It will run, but will only run if i have the choke pulled out about half way and the throttle kept in the "start" position. It runs real high and I can' get it to idle at all. I don't know jack about carbs, so any guidance as where to begin would be great.
I bought the thing for 25 bucks. The PO said the thing wouldn't start after he cleaned the carb. So i just took the plugs out, cleaned them up, and sprayed some WD-40 in the carb intake and got it started.
I know the serial number is 170....not sure of the rest of the numbers, as I am at work right now. Just looking for some ideas as where could be a good starting point.
Thanks
