Moderator drewpy Posted February 16, 2010 Moderator Share Posted February 16, 2010 yeah start with lever up.ultrasonic?!sounds expensive!not sure what it means? you said it don't start with the choke lever down so i'm confirming it starts with it up? ultrasonic gets out out all the tiny bits of crud out of the carb when it's been stripped. speak to merv on here as he does this service!!
