[AT] Need some help, hard starting CR950 Briggs / Ash

[Indiana Robinson]

I  should have been more clear... These are Chinese Elm that my parents and
I planted in the early 1950's. Old and dying now the one I dropped this
week was about 30" at about 30" stump height.
I also intended to mention that the very small room I want to build is to
be well insulated and heated when needed, probably timer controlled.
