You folks are awesome. I got it running!!!! I had to by
a new float
and bowl, but so far so good.

I discovered there was some water in the crank case, and I
had to of
course change the oil. The thing sat for years.

I still have this issue, when it runs, I get a ton of
White smoke from
the exhaust. Is this just burning off the crud (varnish
and such) from
the years of sitting, or is there a problem? My neighbor
said "Let it
run, it'll go away", but I got concerned. Do y'all agree
with him?

Thanks, Tim



Oil burning-may be the rings are stuck in the piston from
setting so long. or the bores are rusted.

Could be worn valve stem/guides too...
