I tried that the wife's vacuum about a month ago.It would not start even with full long length pulls of that starter cord.
So I took it outside added some fresh gas to the intake just to prime it. No more than a pint I'm sure.
I cranked and pulled a bunch of times and no start. Then I remembered it was also electric start!
I plugged it in and hit the button. It started immediately, ON FIRE! The resultant blaze was really spectacular!!
That SOB took off like a rocket right into the garage. It wedged tightly right under wife's brand new KIA Soul that we named had "Kermit".
I pulled and tugged and yanked with all of my might like a South American hooker trying get her payment from a American law enforcement agent. Not going to mention the agency by name.
Now all the wife does is growl when I ask her what does she want me to cook for supper. I keep telling her fried frog legs is delectable Cajun dish.Again with the growling!
I gotta run! I hear her rummaging around and cursing because she can't find the pistol I bought her.
I hid it before the fire department left!

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
