It looks like no oil in cylinder or carburetor and the oil level is showing in the level window. I removed the plug and pulled it over multiple times with no oil seepage or Resistance. I also unbolted the carb and looked in the intake and no oil. Anything else before I start it up?

Another question, the carb bolts were loose and the spacer that the carb mounts to had 2 gaskets against the manifold. Should it have a gasket on either side or is this correct ?:cool:
 
well I cleaned it up a bit and blew out any excess oil in the lower cowling and backfire screen, top off the oil now I'm ready to fire it up.

After looking at the spacer I went ahead and doubled up the gaskets on the manifold side and reassembled it the way I got it seemed right
