i got it running initially with carb cleaner, then a cup full of gas introduced directly into the carburetor. then after playing with the carb adjustment screw a little, it ran on its own. i chipped up a few sticks to test it out (it chewed them up and spit them out like when you give rosie o'donell veggies) and i'm going to change the oil again before i put it to work.

oh, did i mention that it has been sitting for at least 20 years without running?
Those old machines are nearly bulletproof. I wouldnt hold a grain of salt to newer small engines compared to the old cast iron Briggs and Strattons and Kohler K motors!

my garage floor is white, from all the damn salt dripping off the trucks.

and i mean ALOT of salt, the garage floor crunches when you walk across where the trucks park.
