Added oil and fired it up today. What a sweet sound. Gave her a couple of cranks, nothing, poured a little gas down the intake and away she went. Starts now with just a flip.
It sure likes to walk around though, I bolted it to two 4 x 4 s and set the bucket of the tractor on them. It still tried to walk out from under the bucket, had to put a rubber mat under the skids then the bucket to hold it when you rev'ed it up. The flywheel must weigh 30 pounds so guess there's quite a gyroscopic effect when you accelerate it.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
