"seizure66. Let me guess, that's a newly rebuilt engine with probably less than 1K miles on it???"
Not sure I understand the question. As far as I can tell it's the original motor. But I did get it out on the road for a test drive Saturday! Odometer reads 48,000... Attach file:  (100.84 KB)

Thanks Big Kev! That was my next question, shall I insert one just in front of the tank? The type that has a line in out the top, and line out the bottom, lying on it's side? Do you have a pic of your set up?

I think I am in the exact same place you were, I just did the coat hanger and the air.....now I wait. I was wondering if i could rig up a vibration unit to it somehow, like a long screw driver, tapping gently on the line, hmmmm....soak, work, try again....so close!

I can get a thin wire about 12 inches in, but no air, I think I am right there at the hump.....thanks for the advice! If this cleaner does not work I will try some muriatic acid...
