It needs an intake and carb among a few other minor things, it leaks fuel and is now all gobbed up with JB and shit. The previous owner attempted to fix it with jb weld and I shit you not, tape. I think it probably just needed a gasket or maybe they lost a screw to hold the carb down, IDKWTF they were thinking. These things were so cheap and easy to work on, I just don't understand how people can't figure them out but then to do something as stupid as packing epoxy in and around a carb then trying to use tape to seal it up when the JB won't do it. It's actually amazing how many of these folks make it to old age.
