Hi Roland,

I agree that the top of the engine seems to be Ok.
Flipped it over tonight and started to dig my way to the crankcase. Took one look and came to the same conclusion you did- pull carbs off as unit to preserve as many settings as possible.

While I was staring at it to figure out the best way of getting it apart, I noticed the the oil line from the pump was just barely attached. It fell off as soon as I touched it. Glad it did it now, not when it was running! As I'm reassembling I'm going to inspect everything and replace as many hose as possible. Cheap good insurance.
