Finally got myself a TAC have been looking for one at the right price for a while.
Really would have liked a full crank electronic ignition but have quite a few powertorque's for spares and I can't wait forever for a FC to turn up.

The bloke that owned it said he wouldn't be there when i went to inspect it but said he had it running the day before, which is doubtful as i couldn't get it going. He had left the fuel tap on and it was basically out of fuel. Apart from a faulty decompressor no other major issues that i could see. Seemed to have good compression, spark, no play in the bearings plus a good circular blade. Seems OK for 50 bucks.

After the pic's gave it a degrease and wash off and started to strip it down a bit to wash out the tank and clean the carby. One of the top cover screws was seized, ended up drilling the head off, Realized after taking covers of that this machine had been subject to the elements and rust and electrolysis have invaded, so soaking relevant bolts and screws in 'Yield' over night.
The carby was typically oily of a neglected machine.

Will probably keep strippin' her down now and maybe a repaint.
Being my first Powertorque to work will no doubt have some questions.
