    Cool!  So happy you have sorted it out.  Don’t worry about the compression relief system, or the year of the engine.  Get her running and enjoy it.

    PS:  Looks like the 1962 models did not use the compression relief system, I was just basing my comments off the engine cover in your picture, which is from a 1961 model.
