Hello everyone,
I'm new to the boards and glad I've found a Magnum-specific forum. I bought my Magnum from a family member who didn't do anything crazy with it and had it serviced annually, but he hadnt regularly run it for a while, maybe drive it around once a week.
Since purchasing I've changed the oil, plugs, and cleaned the carbureator. I've had a hard time with the machine taking a while to warm up and not just starting up. It's required a lot of choke to get it going. Once I get it warned up and take it around the neighborhood a few times it's fine, but again it won't just fire off at startup and go. The gas has always had Stabil or Seafoam to keep it fresh.
Open to all suggestions on what the issue may be?
Thanks in advance!
