    Just a heads up on Bings!

    They use soft brass for the needle jet & it should be look at for ware.

    Also the slides aren't coated, jet soft aluminum & they also ware. make's them a a pain to jet .

    Keep the needle jet & slide in good shape & your good to go!

    and i found that unless the enriching cable is sitting in its holder correctly, it wont start....this has been the real issue in that the cable has been pushing out of the holder rather than fully actuating the enricher. by holding the cable end to get full operation of the enricher, she fires up second kick! if you guys knew how many kicks on a worn and dodgy kicker i have put into that POS (still bruises on the shin:banghead: ), the push start attempts ( and the push back up the hill:mad: ) all because i couldnt see the cable end moving out of the lever.....AAAAGGGGHHHH. its all good now, my therapist has reduced the dosage this week
