Briggs & Stratton 3.5HP First start attempt

Buy some quick start spray for your engine here: amzn.to/38QnHEW
I just tried to start this thing up, using the fuel that was in it. Not really a great idea, but still. After pulling quite a few times, I noticed the fuel is full of water and not usable at all. I have to empty and clean this thing and have another go.

I love the sound of this pull cord

Wish I could say I learned something 😢

It's not duster in a can, it's flammable penetrating oil. I don't use starter gas, because that has no lubricant, while the penetrating oil does.

hey i have never seen one like that is that like a early self propelled unit frictional drive at that

[@GeirAndersenRepairs]

I've never seen that type of drive myself. That's one of the reasons I wanted it :) I haven't done any more work on it though, and now it's gone...

well it was neat any how

[@oncewaslost1982]

That carb needs the air cleaner installed to operate the choke and let it run.

[@EASTYJAZ34]

Hence the reason i use WD40 to clean the spark plug because its Fish oil Based and extremely flammable

[@GeirAndersenRepairs]

Hehe, yeah. I wish I didn't get rid of it...
