    Good Morning Everyone!

    Last a couple week, the weather in Ontario was up and down with snow and raining, I did not try to run it.

    Yesterday was nice so I took it outside and tried it out on the barrel. It started easily with one or two pull (using the rope wrapped around the flywheel since I broke the manual rewind starter part #0314586-Spring Retainer. It costs $105.99 or could buy a used assembly for $79.99 from Ebay. In my opinion, it is a bad OMC design since its weakest point it at the end tip made from alum and easily broke at this point. I think someone should be able to duplicate it with steel instead of aluminum).

    Please watch the video link I post it on youtube and let me know. There was a miss happened regardless I try to adjust the idle needle but the hiccup did not go away.
