I have a Stihl 024 that hasn't been run in 20+ years. I put some 25:1 in it and it was hard to pull. With the plug out it is easy to pull so I put a few drops of mixed fuel into the cylinder and it started 1st go with not much resistance and I let it idle for a few mins.
I came back to it a few days later and it was hard to pull but started, I had to keep the throttle open a little to stop it stalling.
From a warm start I could pull single cycles on the cord and it would fire each time but not enough to actually start. A normal pull would probably break something.
Any ideas? Pics below
Thanks
