    fuel shut off doesn't work

    So, thanks for the diagram - all information is useful- also, Gimpyrobb said the lever (still don't know the correct term) should move freely which it wasn't- had to grab it with a vise-grip and move it - anyway, yesterday I noticed that it was moving freely- started it this am and works...
