My neighbor asked me to check out his Wild Thing. Doesn't look like it's had more than a tank or two run through it, but it had been sitting up for a few years. When I fueled it up and tried to start it, it would run for a bit but wouldn't stay running.
As I expected, the fuel lines were brittle and coming apart so I changed them. Put it all back together and still wouldn't stay running.
Got a new BMPR7A, new carb, and new primer bulb installed and still same issue - won't stay running. Not getting fuel.
Not sure what else to do. Air filter is clean. I didn't change the fuel filter, but it looked fine. Has very good compression.
