Thanks for the link, I’ll check that out. So….from what I’m hearing these motors were not the cleanest. The last time I ran this motor in a tank, I was surprised at the amount of oil that was left in the tank water. I suppose the best thing, not to do, is over prime the carb and becarefull when putting gas in it. I also noticed that the washer under the gas cap is hard as a rock.
For the gas cap washer replacement, a water meter washer from a good plumbing supply is a very good solution. Years ago, I bought about ten or so and every now and then I need one for a TD, JW, or Lightwin.
