Just took the Twinkie out for a spin after she'd sat since September. Stock carb and choke. Press the gas once, crank for 5 seconds, nothing. Press the gas again, crank for 5 seconds, nothing. Press gas again, fired right up, didn't sputter or die, took her out for a 4 mile run and she ran great. Got back, cranked the Onan for about 10 seconds and it fired right up.
Yes, I would have fuel injection if time and money were no object, but when well maintained this 40 year old technology works just fine.
