lawnboy 5237 is cursed

The needle stuck in the seat one time after reassembly and would not let fuel in.I am getting fuel coming out of the carb into the air filter.I bought a ebay cheapie tune up kit and am going to install it tonight.If that dosent work at least I got a lot of new parts.lawnboys are almost a common place item in wisconsin.they are everywhere.I just got two f motor ones last nite a 10546 and a 521aes whatever that is.
 
I believe thats what the problem was it was flooding out.put a new needle and seat in and had to bend a reed back as it was sticking up a little.Put on new reed and carb gasket put in a new plug gapped at .035 primed three times and shazam it started first pull let it warm up for a few minutes and fine tuned to get that ya know lawnboy sound Saved another one.

Nice work.
I bought a cheap induction tach for less than 11.000 dollars from China and it works good on my lawn boys.
