Just completed putting the 51 H back together after doing a comlete overhaul. (My first one by the way!) Thought the battery was dead so I gave it a quick up stroke with the hand crank and it hit on all four and almost started! Boy was I suprised.

By the way, it is a six volt with all new cables and wires and it fires right up on the first or second revolution with just a little choke. Just though I would update you all with my success story. Thanks. Greg
