Parked in barn for 4 years
Runs ok, idles great
Exhaust ends behind door
New Cap, Rotor, Plugs, Wires, Oil Change, Coolant Flush, Accelerator Pump

It likes to bog down and almost stall when given throttle from a dead stop. I replaced the acclerator pump on the carburator, put a new cap and rotor with new plugs and wires
