This morning, after i took care of some errands I decided to go out and see if i could get it to run. I primed it and it started on the second pull after sitting all night. NICE! Anyway, I ran it for a while mostly to show the wife how awesome it is, and now I need to spend more money to fix it!
So I started tearing it down to 'seal the engine'
I found that the carb slide has some scratching on it. I'm assuming that this isn't normal, and could possibly be part of what's causing my idle problems?
Problem is that the air filter attachment point on the carb body has a chip out of it. I'm pretty sure a filter housing will still seal against/over it, but would I be better off buying just a carb slide, or a complete new carb and saving the decent parts from the old one?
Moving on to disassemble more of it.
