Spark, valves, or gas!

Don’t start taking things apart. Try the MMO. Has helped solve a lot of engine problems with stored engines.

Enjoy.

When there is clearance in #4 valves, what is the clearance?
Is there any?

I think I have a fuel flow problem....fuel was just a small trickle. gas tank still has some junk in it and is plugging up the shut off valve. Going to flush it out better and get some more of the rust out. then get one of the filters that sticks up from the shut off valve into the tank.

Probably be a good time to open up the carb for a look see while you are waiting on the pencil filter to arrive.
