Took a look at the carb - didn't seem gunked up poking it and it is bone dry.
Popped the fuel line to it off and the strainer is... ok? stained but not much on it.
blew it out and put it back for now, next i need to figure out how the fuel pump works - are they vacuum based?
ordered some ignition components off of brillmans website - the battery cables look like someone mauled them with a hammer and they had some so just ordered it all there.
got a charger / jumper thing that does 6v so no longer worried about draining the battery fooling around.
Turned the radio on - it lights up but thats all, is there a rebuild\replacement for those?
