GLad you got it going.
I would plan on plulling the motor to do crank seals.
They are a fun sled !!!
You should have lots of entertainment with it.

Yea. Do it this spring most likely. Get the most fun out as possible. Runs really nice even wide open and goes through powder good.

Wouldn't start today in 5* weather. Wanted to at times but didn't. Ground was disconnected so we redid that. Flooded out by time I had to go. Any ideas? And primer isn't working today?

Your primer would go in and out just not pump fuel?
if so I would suspect an air leak ion your fuel line. This would let fuel go back to the tank.

Yes. Will look for leak. Old hoses still. Except from pump onward. Was working fine then stopped. Yesterday after she warmed up it was 1 pull. Then ran out of gasit seams when I returned to try today

Had more gunk in main jet that wasn't letting needle seat all the way causing it to flood. And heads were loose and on wrong cylinder and had low compression because of it. Still takes about 4-7 pulls to start cold but after warm just one.
