Jim's sure start did
Greetings forum.
I want to express my gratitude to any and all who supported the efforts of Mr 944_Jim getting a test/learning engine to me. I'm attaching a link for my 8 min video on a new YT Channel. Again, thanks for the coaching. To the experienced please forgive the fumbling around as I pondered and fiddled to get this little gem running. Still much more to learn.

WooHoo! Good for you.
Get seven or more tanks through it, and then close the needle 1/2 turn. Then try to start it without the spring. You'll be sneaking up on the needle as you prime and flip.
Once you can finger-start this one at will, move on to the car.
That's a good start to the New Year!

Way to go Jellis_914 ! You will get the hang of it in no time (I hope ur neighbors like you ) I see your in a community . Looks like you were getting it flooded from the extra fuel coming out the exhaust when started . Hope you had some good Fun !

Nice going fella’s…. You’ll get used to the little sounds the engine makes when trying to start and when running to hint what to do….Intuition will take over after a little practice….I’ve got one of those cool little glow clips too and use it often
