Put a saved search on ebay for a Walbro LMT.
I keep one around just as a sub for the Nikki's.
Some of them China Clone Nikki's will never run right even when new. Lots of info on-line (you tube) about how to kit them. I buy the clones from Amazon on-line with free returns, sometimes have to get three or more to get a good one.
A Walbro LMT will eventually show up and they are easy to work on.
Make sure the plastic manifold is not leaking/cracked and I make a flat gasket for the manifold to head instead of relying on the o-ring for a good seal.

Briggs Nikki parts/pieces can be found here reasonably priced.
Thanks

Be aware if you try to look for a Walbro LMT using the Briggs part number for your engine's carb you will be directed to the Nikki replacement carbs, so when searching ebay you will probably have to search for a USED Walbro LMT carb. (and look for the name Walbro LMT on the side of the carb)

Here is a link that will show you how to clean and repair your carbs.
