Thanks to all for the ideas. Here are answers to some of your questions: 1) the engine is IN the truck (It is a 1963 IHC Loadstar 1600.) 2) it was "running when parked". Latest inspection sticker is 1989. Previous owner deceased. PO's son (age 60?) said it was run a year or two on the farm after last inspection. It has been in a farm shed and has little or no serious body or frame rust. I didn't inspect the shed carefully as I was told 18 rattlesnakes were killed there about three years ago. I WAS VERY careful hooking up, inspecting under seat before climbing in, looking underneath hood and truck--I'm scared to death of snakes! 3) it has a starter on it and I have a new battery for it. 4) the spark plugs are in it. 5) how stuck is stuck? I ask you: how pregnant is pregnant? 😄 Thanks again, Kelly

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
