I'm sorry that I confused things.  No I do not have a primer bulb as
so many other of my lawn equipments do.  I wish it did.  As it is, I
have no way to prime it.  All I can do is set the choke closed
half-open or open and hold a throttle lever down.  I can't do much to
make it run.  I think a carburetor overhaul might help things.
I'm going to play with the air screw some tomorrow.

Maybe I will take you up on that.

Thanks again.
