Engine has not run for several years. I have changed all plugs, plug wires, air filter, oil and filter, and engine started. Has run several times since. Recently will not start. Probable fuel filter blockage. There are two fuel lines coming from the gas tank. Is the line pressurized and are there filters in both lines or just one?
Any other ideas on how to get it to start again?
