Got a couple ETon Rovers. One is a Rover Short Bars which is the blue one. Both have dead batteries but that didn't stop me from trying to start them up. Jumped the Blue Rover Short Bars with my Land Rover and she started right up. Only runs with choke, but that's and easy fix. Need to clean out the jets, especially the pilot. Will report back once this has been done.
Red Rover, jumped it and nothing, not even a click. Gotta check the solenoid on that one. Not too many of these out there and especially on the west coast. Had to drive 3 hours each way to grab these ones today. Hopefully these are easy fixes as I wanted to bring these to the next desert trip in a couple weeks.
Blue Rover battery shows 12.8 now. Looks like they might just needed to be charged. Got the charger on the Red Rover now.
I had cleaned the jets last night, but still burbles then dies once I turn of the choke. Gas may be old too. Draining both tanks today and put some fresh stuff in. Gotta head to work. More to come.
