This winter I've noticed the hand I have to yank my older B&S 5hp Quantum to life with isn't feeling quite as young as it once did.
Are there a couple of high-priority things I should address in order to help ensure prompt starts when I start cutting again?
Admittedly, the plug seems to foul pretty often, so I try to keep the electrode cleaned off with a wire brush, and it appears that the fuel-shutoff may need some new O-Rings as it has gotten a little leaky too.
Been using Valvoline MaxLife 10w30, which I seem to have to top off every few hours of operation.. although there doesn't appear to be any significant smokin' going on.
Hints, suggestions?
