[QUOTE="SeaFaring, post: 441466, member: 22876"] So, I pulled the spark plug to spray some oil into the cylinder, and I saw some weird texture on the piston. There's a center circle that looks like I'd expect and then a weird almost non-skid looking texture. The color doesn't look like corrosion but it seems odd. The cylinder was oiled, and everything turns over really easily. [img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170916/6ff1e60397ac7e9d2addbffa60899e91.jpg[/img] Can anyone provide thoughts on that? Oh, and I can't start it. I've got spark, fresh gas, and my new impeller is working great. I suppose it's time to get over my fear of carburetors and clean that out. Sigh. I'd hoped to avoid it since it was run dry before storage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
