hello i have had the gst 7.7 for a year now haven't ran it through the winter now i want to start it up again and its like much harder to start. i was wondering can i unmount the engine off the gst and mount it on a work bench and start it that way? it might be eaiser for me. has anyone tried to start the engine unmounted on the gst? i think it should work. let me know your opionions
thank you
I wouldn't pull it. Check that the fuel lines are not gummed up from old fuel or replace them. Check that the carb works freely, Pull the plug and clean or replace. Put a couple drops of AR oil in the bore and spin it. You should be good to go. I've had no probs with mine sitting .
