Yeah the brick acid is true--guy got pissed because he sucked so much in the engine it corroded it and they refused to fix it. He couldn't understand why.
Yes, tank has been drained and I added the proper 50:1 mixed gas. I did put a new plug, also tried another new plug. Both were wet when I pulled them after trying to start it.


How would I determine the crank case is "full"? Pull the plug and turn it upside down or complete tear down? Assume complete tear down.
