" This week end,i found out that there was a loose hose around the motor. In total there are two of those hose, approx. 3/16 dia. The hoses goes from the front plate of the motor just below the carburetor ant they connect to the side of the motor in the cylinder. It looks like there is one for the top cylinder and one for the bottom. They connect whith a little elbow that seems to me press fit in a hole in the cylinder. The top elbow was disconnected. I notice it because it was oily in this area.
The motor was running fine!!! What are the purpose of these hose? Can i have dammage something by running like this? Do i just put it back in the hole to fix it??
Hoping to get info on this.
