[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 235113, member: 3278"] Almost all service parts are still available for that engine. Before running I would definitely look in the carb and clean and install a new OEM kit in it. The new kit will have the new float and alcohol resistant gaskets. An ignition tune up would be wise as well. Probably the most important would be a new impeller or pump assembly. You are on borrowed time running the old parts and a burned up powerhead is alot more expensive than an impeller. Change out the fuel lines while you are there as well and grease the engine at the lube points. Give the little engine a fighting chance to get back in the game properly!! [/QUOTE]
