Todays high outside Chicago was supposedly 19 F. It wouldn't feel so cold if we hadn't had that incredibly warm weather up to the end of last week.
Anywho - choke out & no pump worked. The throttle cable on mine has been disassembled.
HOWEVER - it ran rough (as you'd expect) and then cut out after I took my foot off the gas. Now when I try to start her it makes a wierd sound - as if the starter has not engaged the flywheel (or whatever it is it engages). Not the hard "whinney-whirr" it usually makes, but a hollow muffled sound.
What'd I do now?
