Just a warning to everyone out there. If your working on a ladder with tools, either take the tools down with you when yougo, or use the holes designed to hold them.
Sunday afternoon I was working off an 8 foot step ladder and putting few nails in my shed roof. I climbed down to check on another project I had going on, and when I came back decided to move the ladder a few feet. I forgot I had left the hammer lying on the top, instead of sticking it in the hole designed for it.
The end result was about a 1" long gash on the top of my head. Thankfully it only hurt when the hammer hit it. I didn't even know I was cu for several minutes, until I took off my hat and the blood began flowing across my face.
Got the blood stopped, and got my wife to look at it. I was happy to wipe it with antibiotic and go on, but my wife said I needed to have it looked at. I figured it would take less time to hit the Fast Med, than to listen to her fuss at me, so off we went.
I came home with 3 staples in my head.......Still never really hurt, even without any deadening, beyond a slight pinching pain when the doctor stapled it. I get to wear them for 2 weeks, and then go back so they can take them out.
Like I said, always being tools down, or put them in the holes designed to keep them in place when your working......Your noggin will thank you......

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. 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
