All right , its all clean , new fuel hose , fresh fuel with 40:1 mix in it.
But there is a problem , it doesnt want to start , it half kicks alot and sometimes roars to life but dies before I can do anything about it.
Update - these are the instructions for starting
1. Spark switch to on , full throttle , set to choke , pull cord till motor pops
2. Switch to partial , full throttle , pull cord till engine starts , hold full throttle for 5 seconds.
3. Swtich to run.
Now I can't get the slart past stage 1.
