i can potentially end up with a freebie chipper. old school, hard core grinder, that weighs alot. the old lady used it for her oakland hills home, but when the hillside burned in that wildfire, it has been sitting ever since. looks rusty and crusty..
if i dont get it for free, i can insure free use of the thing, which is somewhat a better option. storage areas are rare at my home. what would be the smartest game plan on seeing if it starts? flush carbs/tank, fresh fuel, fresh oil, new plug...let it rip? here is a pic. putting on a new engine looks like a no brainer as a last resort.
