So this motor has been sitting for years. The carb was supposed to had been rebuilt before Dad stored it for the past five years. I got it out and it will run for a short bit and die. Starts back up and will run a bit and die. After multiple times of this it just won't start again. I have changed the lower end oil and impeller. New fuel lines. New fuel pump. New 91 octane non ethanol gas mixed 50:1. I just read on another thread that these old motors should be running 16:1. I will read through the service manual tonight to clarify. This old motor has sentimental value and would like for it to run. Thanks guys any help is appreciated. I also have another cool old motor that has potential to run but we will get that later!
