From this point on, thankfully, I'm the only one that's going to be working on it. Hopefully once I get the fuel system cleaned out, etc I can get it to run again. My only problem now is the guy tells me this morning that he thinks it had alot of blowby (ie-puffing hard, and puffing smoke out of the draft tube), then he also tells me that it had started to run a little hot at times also.
