Default RE: ? about K&B 40 engine

That's the very early model 4011. Mine had/have the smooth face carb before they switched to Perry carbs. downunder is correct that they have to be flipped fast in order to feel any good compression. Only sure way to start it is with the electric starter and an idle bar plug.
