A bunch I reckon. HAHA I hadn't fired it up since I took the picture and tried to get it going yesterday. It cranked and cranked and slowed way down (never caught.) Put the batt. charger on it, tried cranking again after about a half hour, and it finally did catch- then stall- (was flooded) and the remaining unburnt fuel burned quickly in the muffler. BAANNNGGG!! Waited another hour, cranked it over and it snuffled and snorted and finally got going running just fine. Batt. didn't have enough juice to get it going yesterday.
