Turbo

]it was leaking from the bowl gasket and on the brass nut where the fuel comes in..it was my error as i didnt have the gaskets for the bowl tightened down..one I retightend no problem

As indicated, I took a break today and raked leaves to let 'cob webs' clear out of my brain or what's left of it.lol

reading various service letters on this site as a respite.

While my brain is 'chillin' on the start issue, this one came to mind while raking leaves

Why are there two TDC marks on the flywheel opposite one another...I know one is for #1 TDC but the other shows up when # 6 is TDC

I think i have the answer.its really only one mark its just because the crank is making two rev.s before the piston # 1 returns to TDC. In otherwords intake sroke, combustion, exhaust stroke
