Bingo, the saga has ended (37 posts later) ……….
Dave and Bill get the prize, and my unconditional gratitude for picking up the wrong gasket mistake. Hey, Bill even gave me a guarantee that the correct gasket would work!!!! That was enough for me.
I made a quick gasket out of cork, and it fired right up, and ran great.
For the life of me I don’t know where I got the replacement gasket from. I guess it looked like the correct shape, and I didn’t check parts numbers, and called it a day.
FYI Crosbyman, I also went with the nozzle with one hole.
I’ll try to post a video of the motor running.
Don’t mind the front crankcase leak. I didn’t put all of the starter brackets screws in for my quick startup.
Again thanks to everyone who gave me ideas on what to take a look at.
