[QUOTE="2drx4, post: 129185, member: 23729"] I went to look at it and it refused to start. He did show me a video if it running from the day before, which is rather academic to me. It didn't even attempt to start, no farting or popping or anything. So either no fuel, way too much fuel, or no spark. I honestly didn't feel like even checking for spark. He knows nothing about it and said he bought it without looking at it in person and had it delivered, was told it smoked a bit and used some oil from the guy he bought it from, realised it was garbage and put it in his shop with 8 million other things. Knows nothing about servicing it or service history. He backtracked on it having a new hydraulic pump on it, he just knows it had a new pump of some sort (guessing fuel, looked shiny). It leaks everywhere and looks like something that was used like the easiest lay in town. He's moving, needs it gone. My gut says not even with a 10 foot pole. My heart says give him a lowball and winch it onto my trailer so it's now my problem. [/QUOTE]
