Welcome from NE MN,

Keep on posting.  I believe the magic number here is 5 so that you can post up pictures.  Does the engine turn over?

BTW we love pictures.

I haven’t really had time to get to it yet with work and stuff but I believe this Saturday we’re going to find out if the motor turns. I have all my carb rebuild parts sitting in my room so let’s hope I can get this started!  ;D ;D
