It’s been a couple of years since I rented the skid steer and cut out the hill between Kent’s place and mine and paved in a parking spot for the RV. I had aspirations to finish paving the alley on the west side of the house and then onto the backyard. With the time off, I finally pulled out the tiller and set out to get the alley done.

But the tiller wouldn’t start, and I’m super excited to say I finally have figured out how the small engine carburetor works and managed to fix the tiller. In this case, the input from the bowl was clogged. I had to use the wire from a cat 5 cable to clean it and voila, it worked.

So tomorrow I should be able to make good progress but here are some pictures of the work today.
