Default 1973 v4 115 Johnson starting problem... Ideas

Wankle powered. 35 hp about 80 mph in our version. They also changed the
carb system for 45 HP for the racing units. Was a great machine. Rode 2
adults comfortably and had a reverse gear. Somewhere we have pic's. My
kids loved driving that thing. But when you are 8-12 years old, is fun to
drive anything, including the dune buggy.

Seems now that I do recall Evinrude, and Johnson snowmobiles. But, I
certainly know that you didn't get 80mph out of a 35hp wankel. No way
in hell. I raced BoaSki's, the last one with a 440 Rotax, dual carbs.
It NEVER saw 80mph.
