Just got a Bowlens 1962 Ride-o-Matic Delux with a 7hp Kohler.
The engine (K161 spec.no. 28611E) will rotate a full one and a half turns and comes up hard in both directions. Wondered if this is indicative of some common problem or do I need to take it apart to see exactly what is happening inside.
-Engine has sat for 33 years
-Can hear the piston drawing air into the carb
Thanks for any help
