When I was a kid I loved tinkering with small engines, Briggs and strattons from the 70s-80s were my favorite. Years later I still bought them, some were called Intek I had 3 of them and there all junk, need to run with the choke on, plastic cams ect, I've had $400 dollar Hondas, one the valve guide came loose and droped down on. So I opted for the cheapest junk I could find for my mower vacuum system. I found these china freight engines for $99.00 and with a coupon you get 10% off and a free survival kit complete with woodstove knife and axe! Lol. Well this one ran great for about 6 months, then it started to run rough blow black smoke and stall. I thought it was running out of fuel at first, then I realized it was like the choke was on flooding the engine. What I found was this vent line went from the gas tank to the carb, an emissions thing I gues?? I disconnected it and ran the engine today, it ran fine all day! I saw gas dripping out of it during the day, so it made me think it must have been dumping to much gas into the carb and flooding the engine! The two things I learned was, I should have bought the mower with a kubota diesel, and I should have got the ultra vac bagger system which has runs off the mower deck, the mower has 3709 hours on it, and is on it's 3rd kohler command at $1800 a pop, the Diesel would have paid for itself by now! Lol

When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
