The mechanic will be replacing filters and such next week. He's going to show me the basics of the motor and help me to together a kit for spare parts.
Am I reading this right? You just couldn't spin it fast enough with a worn out battery?

Ifyou use stater spray be careful. Too much and the engine will run up to max rpm, and you won't be able to shut it off. Just a spritz in intake
