That is a 1986, Rob.

Fuel mix is 50:1. If she runs good you got an excellent deal.

shdwwzrd: You paid way too much for it and I feel so bad for you I'm willing to buy it off you for the full price. Just kidding. It does sound like you got a great deal. It must need a new impeller and some other maintenance. Go to the top of the forum and look at the Top Secret File and read up on some things you should do for it to bring it back to life. Rick.
