well,, i fixed the inlet needle,, (first into the carb),, but while that was all dandy,, i FORGOT to put the WASHER on!!!,,
what was happing, was the threaded brass piece, which holds the inlet needle, was threading to far in, and backing up to the bowl small plate, NOT letting any fuel in, (not moving with /as the bowel filled), so i took apart the carb top, three.4 screws and two on the bottom side,, i notice the blockage,, and thought,, i need a spacer,, well it was on the work bench!!!brass, It seams i fixed on problem,, and caused another!!!,thanks guys!!! carb looked good on the inside, no buildup,after 27 yrs, jc
