Hi Thomas,
 
Yes, I have a 4158/9 old edition with the same exact burner.

Really great to see it running Gil, it has the unmistakable sound & deep thump of an engine of considerable size...music to my ears.

Really fantastic.  It runs really well and sounds very much like a full sized engine

The cleaning continues.
 
I got a peak "under the hood" when I removed the rear engine plate and the blue steel lagging which needed straightening. I just hand straightened it for now and while not perfect, it came out pretty good. Here are a few pictures of what I uncovered during this little project.
 
Enjoy,
Gil
