    yes i am running in a barrel .I pulled one plug wire at a time while running made very little difference on either cyl. It wont start when the lower wire is unhooked it will start when it is hooked and the top one is unplugged. I have that wrong it is the other way around i put a new pump in it thats why i tried to run it in a barrel It has always had 16/1 gas my grandpa bought it new. I always drain the carb when done it only gets used once are twice a year so i always drain it. With it being my grandpas im kinda anal about this motor i have 4 or5 other motors so im used to these older motors.Thanks for the tips i think i will pull the head and see whats up
