From what I recall, nothing of the chassis was broken. it CAN move freely without the engine as a rolling chassis, so I've targeted the engine to be the suspect.
From my last two runs on it before i put it away, I remember how before starting, i would roll the chassis WITH the engine this time, and it didnt seem to bind. however, when i started it, i tried accelerating, and all i could see was the exhaust functioning.
I'll try opening it sometime this April. Hopefully you guys can guide me and diagnose it.
-extra: the pullstart was already pretty screwed up. sometimes it would retract, and other times the little coil inside it would come loose and the string would just stay out (i had to manually open and wind the coil back).
