And if you do run it dry, and it’s cranky about wanting to start drawing fuel the next spring (those little vacuum drive fuel pumps they use now are bad for that), screw the tip off a propane torch (mind that little pill in the end), open it all the way up, point it down the carb throat and crank it over. Let it run on the propane for a minute or so, until the fuel system gets itself primed.

Fantastic, thanks. You know, I am always delighted at the breadth and depth of knowledge on this board, both basic practical and more academic.

I have learned so much just from exchanges like these.

Thanks again
