Thanks Leroy-B1 for the carburetor, I finally got it put on tonight. I had to make a base plate gasket as none of the local parts stores stocked them. After I got some fresh fuel up to to carb she fired up fairly easy. I let it run for about a minute and got to see a few cobb webs start to burn off.

Now for the next problem. The motor was ticking and it appears that no oil is getting to the top of the engine. I had just changed the oil last month when I first tried to start it. I guess maybe the oil pump screen got clogged up from sitting so many years. Does anyone have any advise for this motor.
