RowryJoe, I have a early V1 ? & it's a bear to start cold but after you get the carb wet & running it'll restart very easy. I pull the plug & give the cly.a shot of starter fluidbingo it'll start. You may have to repeat it but it works. Good luck.
Thanks for the tip. The thought of using starter fluid has crossed my mind with this engine only I was thinking of something more like blackpowder or dynamite.
