Hi All:

does anybody have 2 axle nuts they would like to get rid of?

I've heard that these engines can't set up for long without having to rebuild the carb. Mine has been sitting around for about six monthes while i've been waiting for other parts. I tried starting it the other day and it won't say anything. just spins and spins but no noise.
I'm sure that I'll have abunch more questions till I get this thing going.

thanks
Rick

Rick, I don't think any engine can sit for more than 3 or 4 months without putting a gas stabilizer in the tank. The blend of gasoline is not as good as it use to be years ago. There is a product called Sta-Bil that I use on my lawnmower when I put it up for the winter.
Sorry, but no axle nuts. You may have to order them.

Sta-Bil is an excellent product. I use it in my boats, lawnmower and plane, whenever I can't/don't want to drain the tanks. Never had a start problem yet :P. As for the axle nuts, wish I could help, but I cannot.
This IS my sig......
