hey H.O.T! got my hands dirty

larry...finally dragged myself down to the shop today to try and start the to-20. looks like that 3 year retirement she took is gonna cause me a little work. i have the carb soaking in carb cleaner now, the float is stuck open...gas all over the place. not a good thing when you have a woodburner in the same shop. and it looks like a trip to town for a new battery. but she rolls over and seems to have good compression and vacuum...(i pulled all the plugs and squirted some oil in each cylinder, and did the old "finger test" in each plug hole as i rolled it over)

i decided to try that new nanotech. block sealer by CRC, but i have to get her running before i can do the process. drained all the old gas out and put clean oil in...just need a working carb float and a little spark and she'll fire right up...right? she ran when i pulled her in the pole barn three years ago, so why not?

do any de-rusting today? i can't tell...wind is out of the south.
