It does have a block heater, I'm not sure if it works though. Anyway After some battery charging, and severe cranking it STARTED!!!!!!!! Quite a large cloud blew out the back. It sounded fine.
But it only ran for about 6 seconds. It acts like it is starving for fuel. I'm wondering if my hand primer pump thingy is going bad. There is no fuel leak, but when I pump it up really good- I can hear a small air leak some where around it(maybe filter gasket)?. Since it is the older very special pump, it is a tad harder to find, plus way more expensive. I may have to find a way to block it off, and still allow the fuel to be hooked up. Im hooked up to the in car tank, which is full of crap, but not clogging the filters....I'm sure I should get to cleaning it. There could be a crack in one of the lines from the tank.
