Don't make something as simple as starting an engine that has been sitting a while into a $1000 three day adventure when it just not that hard.
don't you think it might have been a better idea to find the problem with the 100+ engines before
going to pyromania palace.
Geez you start half a dozen fires and suddenly you're a pyromaniac!
There was actually nothing wrong with the engines that needed the fuel, just empty fuel bowls. That's the point, there is nothing wrong. No need to buy a new carb just because you have a sticky needle and seat.
