Thanks guys for the input..

I did look at the manuals on ebay.,. 391.00..

We are pretty good mechanics so am going to try to get it running ourselves.. it was delivered today and is in pretty good shape.

I checked the oil and did not find any metal or water, so that is a good start.. bought a new battery and am going to change fluids etc this weekend. since i am a chain distributor, i will let one of the manufacturers donate new mast chain to the deal..

Other than that, spark, fuel & air it should run.. we just don't know how to adjust valves, but it is probably similiar to any flathead engine.

Thanks,

Gene
