[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 366038, member: 3278"] Well...............if the owner can demonstrate that it runs, then.....it has both compression and plenty of spark. It should be able to idle down to a decent idle and accelerate normally to full throttle. Check to make sure it pumps water. Without knowing the exact engine what I can tell you is that many of those engines had metal impellers. Grease in the gearcase in place of oil, and will probably need to be run on around 16:1 for an oil ratio. Should be a fun little engine. [/QUOTE]
