Because of limited space the 2.7 CU Husky Challenger engine does not have a choke for easy starting so I added a fuel primer tube as shown in in the fuselage section under engine. To further assist in easy starting I purchased a Sullivan S651 Megatron Starter from Phil’s Hobby Shop & two 12 volt Auto Zone garden tractor batteries. I went to Home Depot & purchased two 7 inch & two 8 inch plastic lawn mower wheels, a 1/2 inch diameter steel rod for the axle, four axle caps, a 3/4 inch dowel rod & a package of rubber tips to make the pulling handle. I built the wagon box out of wood I had available from a previous project that I was no longer using. On October 16, 2010 I changed to 14 inch wheels.
