EDIT 3/24 - moved some of Ron's posts from the Welcome Centre in order to get the engine discussion going over in this Engine Shop. Looks like that did the trick! ~ Peggy MI did not expect the engine to be good. Considering age and I’ll cap was off when I got it. But for giggles, I pulled the dipstick and it appears to have oil in it. Not oil and water -- but oil.
I did not get it thinking it was or would run.
So I’ll keep posting as I know more.
Thanks for the warm welcome
