We had our first hiccup yesterday. It fired right up and then quit. It would occasionally fire, then it wouldn't. Dad said he'd paid some one to go through it. I think he bought a bill of goods.

Anyway, air filter was filthy. I hit that with compressed air and was amazed at the amount of ick that came out. New air and fuel filters will be here tomorrow.

I bought 4 plugs and found two new ones in the tool box. I put in a new gapped plug and the beast fired right up. Who the hell knows?

I did find the fuel line runs up against the spark plug boot, so that's getting re-routed when I change the fuel filter. I'll probably just change the fuel line while I'm in there.
