Hey guys. Just noticed my choke solenoid manual valve only turns about 90 degrees. The manual somewhat implies it should turn a full 180. Is something wrong here?

Seems to run fine on muffs, yes. I believe that red primer switch is for emergency use only? I can hear it click when i push key in
lever is inline with body in RUN position, 1st photo is correct. it wont dump fuel until the lever is even higher than the 2d pic (away from body) usually. is your spark advance and cam roller ok with both outer rubber sleeves present?

just saw what looks like BOTH rollers gone. new ones are needed to get it to run properly.

Which rollers are you referring to? I did find one forward of the picture that was busted. Its a yellow sleeve. Stupid thing is like $30, it seems to run fine as is.
