Looking for a little advice.
My father gave me his 05 Phoenix 200 that has at most, 8 hours run time on it.
So, for the most part it’s new internally. It never cranked cold very well from the time he bought it, even after several trips to the Dealer. It has basically sat in his shed covered for the last few years and now it’s mine.
Problem 1, can’t find the key….. if I buy a key blank from EBay, is it possible to get it cut to fit the ignition switch?
Problem 2, where do I go from here once I get the ignition issue corrected?
I’m thinking clean entire fuel system and carb rebuild are in order, but before I go that route are thee any carb issues that you folks have encountered? Would I be ahead of the curve purchasing a New carb or even retrofitting one from a different model?
Any and all responses are welcomed and encouraged!!😀
