hello again , can anyone tell me how to date this machine ? cant find much id on it but maybe i'm looking in the wrong place blush i was told it hadnt run for @ 9 years . a check over another fuel tap and some line and it fired 2nd pull and sounded sweet . needs a good sharpen though .. seems it all works well apart from that , heres a few pic's of it as it is
