Had a buddy drop off a wheelbarrow style compressor yesterday. He farms and it was an old one he kept in the back of a farm truck. One of his farm hands flipped the truck a couple years ago, throwing the compressor out. Looks like I’m missing the pull start and the air cleaner assembly. It’s been stored in his shop, so hasnt been sitting out, but the sparkplus was out. It has a Honda GX160 motor on it. He said I could have it as he’s bought a new one.
I tried spinning the motor over by sticking a screwdriver in what’s left of the recoil starter and it won’t budge.
Any ideas where I should start on turning it over? Any kind of safety/ lock out feature that might have tripped that would keep it from pulling over?
It’s this company, but has a Honda GX160 motor.
