Very very happy about this


An engine coming back that good after a ten year sleep. Chances are it is in pretty good shape internally. I base this on so many past posts where members have struggled with engines that sat long periods.

The ones that came back easily were pretty good by all reports. Where the ones that where a real headache even to get running did not seem to do that well in general. Of course like most things there were exceptions.

Anyways this was a great outcome for a start and it may yet improve even more with some use.
