Figured Id start a new topic for views.


After being run on the stand and being left to rest for a bit I think the motor is flooding out. Its east to pull over if I run it, shut it off and restart right away, but if I wait a half hour the first pull is easy then it gets ridiculously hard and I have to hit it with either or pull it 10-15 times.


Theres also a starting issue if I try to pump the bulb until it gets hard. If I pump it until I hear gas in the carb It starts in a few pulls but if I pump it more it floods.

Am I correct thinking both of these issues are float level/float needle related?
