Yea,I think the carb is fubar.I rebuilt it but it has been apart several times by the looks of the screws.Looks like someone rebuilt it with a hammer once.I I couldn't get a needle out of the top tower.Not sure what that is for.I used locking Forceps on it an still couldn't get it to come out.Compressed air,soaked over night in carb cleaner.Nothing would get it lose.I suspect I have a leak around the throttle shaft as it wasn't the tightest fit in the world.One of those Things I was just kinda half assing to get it running and moving and planned on repairing later.The engine is actually in a Aircraft tug but is the same engine as a Powerwagon.230 Flat head Chrysler L-head with a Ball and Ball carb and a oilbath air filter.Sweet sounding engine with a straight pipe.
