Holed up in the shop yestday waiting for the snow to end before going plowing.
worked on some old saws that been sitting forever.
got a couple going too !
this old sears U4G still had some sort of semi-liquid gunk in the tank and no spark.
cleaned the points and got spark.
had a hard time finding the fuel line thru all the years of built up dirt,un-hooked it so as not to suck in any of that old crap in the tank.. only place i have to clean is outside and NOT going to do that during a snow storm ! tagged it and it can wait for a decent day out to get cleaned up.
some mix in the carb and a few pulls and it fired up..
prob should have put the choke and throttle lock on and wouldnt have taken so many pulls :)
On the deck with the front door wide open letting all the heat out ! :cry:
