I went ahead and boiled the carb for 30 minutes in citric acid. It cleaned up nice. Still had a problem. I think I found the issue though. Before, it only ran well when it was partially choked. Without the air cleaner on, it runs perfect, unchoked. If I put just the tube on the carb, it...

I have gotten fresh fuel. Nothing changed. The only way to make this run right is to run it on about 1/4 choke, which I have been doing. The jet has been damaged due to previous 'mechanic' attempting unsuccessfully trying to remove it. It is possible that this is also the reason it runs...

Thanks! Yes, I believe it is etched butI don’t think it’s readable.Someoneat some time tried to remove the main jet and did not succeed. They stripped the slot and scratched the top of the jet where the number is. I’m only eyeballing this part of the carburetor because it’s the only part I...
