    thanks soundguy for your reply if it runs good after starting with fluid, could it still be water/slug in gas ?

    only starts with ether....

    here's my story and I'm sticking to it :) transported old 9N 200 miles with gas in tank. she cranked before the move and now will not start unless i use starting fluid sprayed @ intake. Wondering to drain gas tank or clean carb or both. runs great once started with ether. thanks for any an all...

    almost fires up.....

    you're right 'bout that JMOR :)) dang...it measured 1-2" on my gas stick, oh well its back to the drawing board as it won't start again after sitting for about 1 hr :( i love her anyway :)

    almost fires up.....

    woo hoo !! she's running ! my guess is the gas was flowing from the reserve and not flowing steady. add 1-2 gallons and stayed off the choke and she fired right up...love that sound ! thanks for all the help !

    almost fires up.....

    thanks Bruce as for fuel at the right mixture, how does one determine if the fuel flow is at the "right mixture" am assuming the adjustment screws on the carb determine "right mixture" i believe mine are backed out one full turn from closed...sound right ? thank you

    almost fires up.....

    thanks Doug12 it ran well for about 1 hour and then while pulling a load, sputtered and puffed like it wasn't getting gas and then stopped. been sitting for 5 days. at least it stopped under a shade tree :) wondering if i need to hold the choke closed while trying to start...or if that is...
