I had to hit mine with some starting fluid this year for the first time. Might have been the two year old gas I’ve been running? I put fresh in, running like a champ now.
My old Jiffy model 30 is nearly 20 years old and it started on the second pull and usually does every winter after I blow the layers of dust off of it. I use seafoam in every tank and I think that has helped.
If you noticed it fired on the second pull. If you would of turn the choke off at that point it would of started on the next pull. Very easy to get too much gas to the Solo, if it fires at all turn the choke off.
Man she’s blowing up here! We’ve got a few walleyes and some dandy perch. Already had to run for propane! This house fishing is not for me! The drive home looks interesting judging by the radar.
