I borrowed my Grandparents AMF rototiller, which hasn't been used in about 2 years. Everything but the engine is covered in what looks like oil - dirt mixed, I'm assuming whoever borrowed it in the last 2 years had left it like this, and that perturbs me.
How to I go about cleaning without causing it to rust?
I also need to get the old gas out of it. How do I do that?
I was told not to put straight gas into the tank, what is the proper mixture?
What are all the basics that need to be done?
I read through some of the other posts about the rototiller starting after putting some gas into the carb., we tried that and it started for about 5 secs and stopped.
I have searched the internet to no avail. with this brand. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We plan on tackling this little project this week to see if we can get it cleaned up and running. Here is what is listed on the rototiller= AMF Western Tool 1346-0200 I don't know if that is the make and model or not but that is currently all we can find amongst the grime.
