    Merry Mac wood chipper.

    Alright, I want to thank you guys for the information you supplied. As far as I can tell, it has only one spring which is missing In the attached carb breakdown # 232A, but it doesn't show where to attach the spring. I also feel that there should be some sort of spring near the bottom of the...

    Merry Mac wood chipper.

    The Briggs & Stratton engine barely raises above idle when it's suppose to have a load on it. it's a 5hp. I just bought it used.

    Backfire is the name of the game

    Make sure that when you mounted the carb the mating surface on both sides were very clean and the gasket wasn't deformed. It could be as simple as it's sucking air at the gasket causing the popping.

    Repair Suggestions for plastic fuel tank

    Either buy a replacement tank or you could try buying a plastic welder from HF. Just make sure to vent all of the fumes before introducing heat.

    Please help me find this part!

    Good value torque wrenches without breaking the bank?

    I have used the same wrench you're describing for the last 10yrs and have never had a problem with it. Everyone gets a bad tool every once in awhile, just like buying a lemon car, it happens.
