Engine has no electronic controls. It only needs a 12VDC trickle to open the fuel cutoff solenoid to allow the fuel to flow. One could open up the solenoid to remove the plunger, reinstall, and the fuel would flow without the 12VDC.
Start engine by pushing or rolling downhill (assuming manual transmission). Would be more difficult in cold temperatures. Stop engine by dumping the clutch in gear.
So once started, it could stay running as long as the fuel lasts. No battery, alternator, or any other electrical supply needed.
