Thanks Rusty, I know it can be tough. I sincerely appreciate all the effort. As far as photos go, most snapshot cameras need to be set in "macro" mode to focus on objects closer than about 7' unless lighting is VERY bright where aperture can compensate. I think macro mode is a flower symbol.

I'm getting to know what to expect now and the correct one or two releases MAY be helpful. I've already been able to determine the record keeping was not timely. For example, when they changed to the one piece shaft and lever design (difference between #4 & 5 below) it made obsolete the old shaft, carb control lever, retaining pin, and return spring. There was a surprising span of time between the first and last of the four items were recorded as service only items. Not a single one of those items could be used without the others.
