Carb should have a number like this, Kawasaki 15004-7063, but this is only an example as the serial number you posted I can’t find. I need the units serial number. All I know now is you have a Husqvarna Z-turn with a Kawasaki FR691V engine. It was running rough and surging so you decided to throw parts at it. You purchased an aftermarket carb off FleaBay and that didn’t help, plus you didn’t give us the carb part number. The picture you painted is very blurry, so please try clearing it up, plus turn the caps lock OFF

Hopefully you didn’t throw old OEM carburetor away.
-Check fuel flow.
-Check to be sure anti-after fire solenoid on carburetor is working (if equipped).
-Clean old OEM carburetor and install with good gaskets.
Let us know after these things are done.

I have the same problem on my mower. The unit is a Gravely ZTXL 48 - 915162 w/ FR691V - BS00 - S. Carb #'s I found are: 26 China 47063. It is a Warlbro. I had the carb sonic cleaned (I work at a lawn mower dealer/repair shop). Had the problem before of engine only running half-assed at full choke. Off choke, runs for 5 seconds then killing. Now, same thing. Did maintenance and reinstalled carb. No change.

Cleaning a carb in USC is not a cure all plus a lot times it takes a lot more time then most thinks. It also depending how completely the carb is disassembled. There places that can't be cleaned unless the area is open to the ultrasonics.

Some think 30 minutes in an USC does the job. Well in my 300 watt USC with four transducers it might take up to four 30 minutes cycles.

As with all cleaning methods there are areas that has to be hand cleaned.

When you cleaned the carb, did you remove and clean both the main jet and nozzle? Also, has this carb been serviced before? I ask this because there are three different main jets used on that carb.

 

[mdupre07]

Yes. Completely disassembled.

I suspect a fuel delivery problem.
