    Will start only with a squirt of starting fluid. Runs great once started.

    Have you pulled the ip head to make sure the button is still attached ? It migh be loose and only staying attached when the rpm’s get up there. I hated pulling that whole assembly off because it wouldn’t start. Turned ou it was the ip head button off and the piston wouldn’t drop all the way down.
