Took it, got home, put gas in it and pulled it may times without it even firing. Figgered...... untill I seen the gas shut off valve was closed position. Turned it to open and she fired right up. Let 8t run for 10 minutes, plugged in a Sawzall and works great. Quite,light. swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs!

The seller though the engine was seized-up because when you pulled on the pull rope it wouldn't budge. It had been left with the shifter in gear (forward position) and the linkage down at the pump was frozen-up a little. A squirt of PB Blaster, and a little jiggling and the engine was up and running. It's pretty funny what people will just walk away from. "My life is better than your vacation"
