I did trim it back about 3 inches so that the fuel filter laid about level. Also, took the petcock apart and blew in it (not that it does much, but I had nothing better to do at work except try). Put it back together, and cranked again. No fuel flow. Put it on RESERVE, and the VUALA! Fuel flow! I got it running and trimmed down the idle screw to a reasonable level. Let it sit there for a few minutes, and did fine. I thought I'd try to turn it back to ON to see if it would work then. As soon as I did, right back to the no fuel flow. Problem: Need new fuel cock. Answer: Runs on RESERVE. It's staying on RESERVE until new petcock is in. THANKS AGAIN for all the help guys! I will continue to read these forums, as now I feel like buying a fixer upper for the wife to ride along with me. You guys ROCK!!Now there's something I didn't think of. I did replace the fuel line with newer hose and LONGER because the other seemed like $hit. I'll trim it down a bit and see how that works. Might not, but I did put on a lengthy section of replacement hose. Thanks for the tip!
