Hey guys,
I have a 92 silver streak with a power torque engine. I have had the mower for a few years now, and it has always been hard to start compared to other power torque engines I have used. These are the symptoms - Puffs a little smoke while pull starting from in between the cooling fins and the head and some fuel evaporates from the tank over a two week period.

Once you get it started, it will splutter and carry on, puffing alot of blue smoke until it builds up to full rpm.

If you have any ideas, please let me know! Thanks.
